F-4E-Tu22 Intercept

Created an F-4E intercept video. Going after (4) Tu-22 bombers on this one. Things to note about the Tu-22s. First, they have tail gunners and WILL shoot you down if you get too close on their six. They are pretty good. Second, they are FAST! If you see their blue afterburners going, the jet is gaining speed. Once they get some distance from the F-4, it can be rather difficult for the F-4 to chase them down. I had one get away from me and no matter the intercept vector and in full afterburner, I couldn't get within 5 miles of him. So I lingered over my base and waited for him to attempt an bombing run. Then I attacked and took him out with an AIM9 heatseeker. I had about 100 lbs of fuel left when I landed.

    Yeah, DCS is highly detailed. Especially in VR and in high fidelity aircraft. VR brings a whole new level of immersion. As a pilot IRL, the first time I dropped into the sim cockpit using VR, I was overwhelmed by the level of detail. Even though I knew I wasn't moving, the motion being fed to my brain through the visuals gave me vertigo for a short while. I also blurted out "Whoa!" a few times. Now I don't think I could fly in the sim any other way.

    I think I had (1) AIM-7 out of (4) that actually tracked the target. Gotta get closer before release.
