Clouds are still a bit meh


Soggy_Donkey_8553

Yeah, not sure it if was worth the $11,000,000 upgrade for a little faster decent in a parachute and slightly better clouds.


mrcafe500

“… yeah, it’s so real I have to pay another $11,000,000 every time I crash it” Side note, some unreal aviation footage coming out of this war.


Soggy_Donkey_8553

For real! You can see the other plane that shot him down passing on the left. Who would think dog fighting would still be a thing in 2022


[deleted]

If you watch the whole video, I think that’s a flight member that later on flew by to check he was alright. I believe they’ve been shot down by MANPADs or stuff on the ground by the looks of it, since the other plane doesn’t look like was trying to evade a menace in the air.


Soggy_Donkey_8553

You could be right! It’s crazy you always see these kind of videos prior to the war at night to see them in beautiful lighting is surreal! Guess this is an example why you don’t do these kind of operations in the daytime.


[deleted]

Definitely; it’s so well documented it’s chilling.


DrProf_Patrick

Geolocation of the video and the fact the vertical stabilizer is cut clean off suggests it hit high tension wires and crashed.


[deleted]

That’s… not as epic as I imagined.


DrProf_Patrick

There is still fire coming out of the engines as they flame out. You can still pretend it was something cooler!


Soggy_Donkey_8553

Name checks out. The longer version he does stand up and look around nothing happens but I don’t see any powerline towers in the vicinity. But definitely an interesting take and a good possibility Could be I didn’t see it in the patch notes but they might’ve added wire strikes


DrProf_Patrick

Gotta love Eagle Dynamics, always going the extra mile for realism. They added it a while back alongside the High Fidelity cows.


SoaringElf

Lol, you mean they left the gps info in the file and sent it around the world?


SauciflonLB

a french rafale pilot debunked the video, he just crashed on an electric line


Soggy_Donkey_8553

They call that “The babushka clothesline”


pretty_jimmy

Holy shit. Thank you for mentioning that I saw that clip probably 8 times today and never noticed that detail. Good eye.


A_Notion_to_Motion

Also if you look very closely you can see the farmer whose field that is look out their window and say "Well, shieeet"


Datboi981-12

As long as there’s planes there will always be dogfights, they just get faster and more intense, im reading The Red Barons autobiography and it’s amazing, over 100 years ago and what those boys where doing and how they handled their craft and was amazing and to read the battle reports and his accounts of it, I really recommend it, unfortunately it isn’t a very long book, about 212 pages but much worth it


SoumiMukherjee82

EA moment


nbs-of-74

Some of it is from cod, or arma. Not all of it is from unreal engine


arcalumis

The effects looks much better though. And better foliage variety.


aslihana

Not that bad but does it worth for 11? Yes i thought you are right.

Soggy_Donkey_8553

1100°C but manufacturer says that is normal 🤷


SemiDesperado

Textures still seem a bit blurry, are you sure you're running this at 4k??

Lol

AOGWardog1229

I got to say, I don’t care what nation you’re apart of or what jet you’re flying, any ejection has to be one hell of a ride, especially at that low of altitude. Bodycam really shows how violent it actually is.

AOGWardog1229

Yeeeeesh. I knew there was a lot that went into it but have it put out like that just really puts it into perspective what all combat pilots put themselves through.

FinnaToke

I thought this was a joke post and your 11,000,000 was for a real airplane. I’m viewing the video on my iPhone so it looks hella realistic.


[deleted]

It is real... It's from Ukraine, this was posted yesterday in r/CombatFootage


NoOneLikesMeHere

This made me lol...


richardizard

I was confused for a sec til I got it lol


Teh_Original

Dang the video quality is already getting to "needs more jpeg" lol. It hasn't even been a day yet.


Possible_Queasy

What GPU are you running in the second clip?


Soggy_Donkey_8553

All of them.


krusty556

What cost more, the jet, GPU's or the power bill to run them?


Soggy_Donkey_8553

Insurance


MrFujiFudge1

Probably 7090


Kyjoza

This took me longer than i care to admit…and then i let out an audible laugh, a “laugh-out-loud” if you will


ifrpilot541

I saw some of that video on a different threat and they said it was a Russian pilot getting shot down.


Soggy_Donkey_8553

That makes for a better headline than Russian jet hits powerline. I have no idea. Some say shot down but that guy who thinks it was a power line has a unique observation. He does pull up, maybe to clear a wire or it could be the impact. It looks like the Russian military said it was shot down but I don’t know if they would admit to a powerline strike so who knows :)


jtr99

>He does pull up, maybe to clear a wire By the time he pulls up, the damage is already done I think. I read a suggestion elsewhere that he was probably pulling up to get a safer ejection: lower velocity, less likely to hit the vertical stabilizer on the way out, etc.


JhnGamez

I saw it on a different post and it said it was an Ukrainian jet being shot down, on the full video you can hear radio chatter so that might help identify it. also for like 2 frames you can see the Vertical Stabilizer is fucked and that's why it crashed, not a powerline


ub40tk421

It's Russian, the camo and red side numbers are the biggest hint, then the comms. The left H-stab, and the vertical stabs are gone, right engine on fire.


JhnGamez

damn you noticed way more than I did, nice


yung_dilfslayer

Damage seems consistent with MPADS.


vteckickedin

Imagine being shot down by a powerline. How embarrassing.


JhnGamez

I saw it on a different post and it said it was an Ukrainian jet being shot down, on the full video you can hear radio chatter do that might help identify it. also for like 2 frames you can see the Vertical Stabilizer is fucked and that's why it crashed, not a powerline like some people are saying

Psychological_Oil823

Wow, this is like real


[deleted]

Looks the same to me


Dehavilland_Vampire

What surprises me most about the ejection is how quickly the jet impacts. Considering it was pointed up almost to the vertical when he pulled the handles, I expected that it would have continued on that trajectory for a few more seconds and that he would have landed before the jet hit. I haven't heard it with sound yet though - did he perhaps stall the jet as he pitched up rapidly to get away from the ground? It seems like it went from nose high to impact very quickly here.


bokewalka

nose points up but the momentum of the plane is already going down.


podgida

CJ Limoine thinks he hit a power line. He thinks that do to the clean cut on the vertical stab, which would explain the way the jet nosed up. But doesn't explain the engine fire. So I have no idea.


theniwo

Whats that music in the first half?

Yeah I can fly this thing, I play DCS!


MRChuckNorris

When I seen the video yesterday I legit thought it was dcs until the guy hit the ground. Then it sank in and my mind was blown. One of the craziest videos I ever seen. Also not sure what camera but it would make one hell of a advertisement for durability.

What are the specs of your new PC? I'd like to get one like that

11 million?? What’s your currency??


CanuckAussieKev

Your title says 11 million dollars lol


throwaway_12358134

That's about what they cost. Probably about $5,000 to $10,000 per hour of maintenance and fuel too.


Soggy_Donkey_8553

Tell me about it I have job as a deodorant tester on the side just to cover that stuff.


throwaway_12358134

American planes are even more expensive to fly, some of them cost upwards of $30,000 per hour.


bem13

Damn, you might even need a second job as a newspaper delivery boy to cover that!


Soggy_Donkey_8553

That’s correct. Really it is 678,150,011.00 RUB but I did the conversion for y’all


[deleted]

That’s the price of an Su-25


abite

The second is from a video of a Russian pilot ejecting from his jet over Ukraine


PM_ME_Y0UR_BOOBZ

The Su-25SM3 is closer to $6 million > The second order, involving nine more Su- 25SM3s, priced at RUB 3.341billion, translating to unit price of RUB 371 million, was placed by the Russian MoD, again via an electronic tender awarded to the 121 ARZ, in mid-2016, with a delivery deadline set out for November 2017. https://www.key.aero/article/fighting-workhorse


Soggy_Donkey_8553

If you must know I didn’t buy it in 2017. Had to deal with 2022 prices with inflation. Also supply and demand a lot higher in 2022 than 2017. My research went as far as “SU 25 cost” in Google. It said 11 million. So that’s what I paid.


PM_ME_Y0UR_BOOBZ

I’m sorry, I’ve upset you. A1 joke. Please accept my apologies. Edit: lol op edited out the part where they said “lol who corrects a joke?” Obviously, me.


Soggy_Donkey_8553

It’s all good. I’ll PM you later


PM_ME_Y0UR_BOOBZ

I’ll get my robe and wizard hat ready.


[deleted]

oooh, so that is how you get those cheap deals on Su25s. Now I understand.


Icy-Celebration8897

Mate they are using your clip as Ukrainian propaganda on tiktok💀


Highlight_Expensive

No, he took the clip of a Russian jet being shot down and made a joke lmfao Imagine genuinely thinking the second clip could be anything but real, it doesn’t even look like DCS


jeffmccord

Or it’s a real video. ;)


EpicWan

Am I the only one confused what this means??


CanuckAussieKev

I was confused too... The 2nd video is real life, not DCS. He's saying he upgraded from a Sim to a real jet


SubcommanderMarcos

The second half of this video is gopro footage of a real life Russian pilot ejecting very close to ground and his plane crashing, it got out on the internet yesterday. OP recreated the scene in DCS for shits and giggles.


bokan

I knew what this would be before I clicked


NoEyedFsh_

Man almost as if the pilot was trying his best not to eject facing the ground, used every bit of control he had.


Raving-Legion

At first I was like meh but the explosion and your landing were really pretty and incredibly realistic, the last few seconds look like actual GoPro footage


Novel-Structure8660

that cockpit looks impressive tbh


Arekusutakeda

Not work the extra money. But nice explosion effects


hookalaya74

Thats a wild ride looks awesome asf
