The most kills ive managed to get in one sortie is 4, its my goal to get 6 but I usually run outta fuel, or one of my missiles misses...

In yes all the same !

And you have already met other MiG-21 on 104th ?

 

yeah, every once in a while, head-on usually goes one of two ways... I get an R3R to the face, or they fly over my head and i turn in behind them and take them out... the fun part is when they try to turn in behind me too 8)

 

I guess I launch r3rs too...

 

if I get behind one... well... obvious...

 

Just gotta keep in mind, if he's running full afterburner, and started with more energy than you, you can't catch him, but there's exeptions to every rule right? if he's got a heavier loadout, more fuel than you, if he's bad at energy management, etc...

Some servers prevent recording. you see just yourself in the tacview. you need to playback the track that DCS automatically records and then the tacview will re-record but this time with all the action. When replaying the track you can just go to F10 map and accelerate time to 3 or more times to make it take less.

 

But sometimes the track gets corrupted and...

Does 104th allow Tacview to record?

Nope. The above is from last night on 104th.

I haven’t played DCS for quite a while now. After updating my game I decided to jump right in on the 104th with my favorite plane and see what I can do. To my surprise, I managed to bag 2 kills during my play session. Not the most amazing flying, but still a ton of fun.

Grom kill against F-15

 

I was chasing a F-15 from behind and I had two special missiles on me. My name since then has been changed to theAMERICANeagle for now on.

On this picture you can see a secondary explosion of the F-15! :)

You guys make it look easy to thread the Mig-21 through those mountain canyons. I gave it a try earlier today, actually spotted a contact on radar about 15km out, and promptly smashed into a mountain.:doh:

These ones are about $10000 a piece, which is why so many are needed ;)

Mirror script/always off

 

A manual way to add this functionality:

 

{combos={{key="M"}},down = iCommandToggleMirrors, name = _('Toggle  mirrors'), category = _('General')},

 

This can be put into the MiG-21\keyboard\default.lua and can be used to toggle the mirrors on and off like in the other modules.

 

Where someone linked me to. I had tried to put the script in but I have no clue where to put it in. Not to mention I have no clue where to select so the mirrors are always on. I have found in videos that the mirror in this is actually pretty much needed to see if there is a bogey on your tail. If someone could give a pretty good detailed description of what I need to do then that would be very helpful!

As per the post, Put it in here:

 

"This can be put into the MiG-21\keyboard\default.lua and can be used to toggle the mirrors on and off like in the other modules."

 

Then you should see it in you options menu key mapping.. Judging from the script " m" will be the default on/off

Is this done through the user\(users profile)\saved games\DCS? where would I edit this into the lua? Does it not matter or should I put it at the bottom.

A really fun session on the 104th saturday, got 3 kills (2.5 really), teamed up with an other Mig 21 pilot and between the 2 of us we shot down 7 F15/Mig 29/Su27s lol. I had a blast.

 

The last kill in the vid is the result of some nice teamwork

 

Forget to turn on my mic recording

 

 

1. F15 with R13

2. Su 27 with R3R

3. F15 with R13

 

those were actually my 2nd and 3rd kills with IR weapons ever on the 21.

 

 

Edit :

Another R13M1 kill during a East vs West Mission:

Nice video's! Although at one point someone mentions slewing the radar cone up and down, and you can't do that in the 21, it has a fixed Sapphire radar system, although it can angle up a bit with the low altitude flying mode to get some of the clutter out of the way.
