S77th-konkussion Posted September 8, 2006 Posted September 8, 2006 So you're using a promo film as fact now? LOL.. [sIGPIC]http://forums.eagle.ru/attachment.php?attachmentid=43337&d=1287169113[/sIGPIC]
TucksonSonny Posted September 8, 2006 Author Posted September 8, 2006 So you're using a promo film as fact now? LOL.. The title was taken from the official www.eurofighter.com site. You have to admit that they warned us about the material as being a “Promotion film” and thus “Not pretend to be RL or realistic sequences”. The message was that the role was a 5th generation Multirole fighter aircraft and in that global role indeed “Nothings Comes Close” BTW, I admit that in the category “air-superiority” it is only #2. ;) DELL Intel® Core™ i7 Processor 940 2,93 GHz @3 GHz, 8 MB cache | 8.192 MB 1.067 MHz Tri Channel DDR3 | 512 MB ATI® Radeon™ 4850 | 500 GB 7200 rpm Serial ATA | Samsung SM 2693 HM 25.5 " | HOTAS Cougar Thrustmaster |
GGTharos Posted September 8, 2006 Posted September 8, 2006 I've seen this a long time ago. It is pretty neat, I like the guy screaming when he's trying to hit the plane, hehe :D [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Reminder: SAM = Speed Bump :D I used to play flight sims like you, but then I took a slammer to the knee - Yoda
S77th-GOYA Posted September 8, 2006 Posted September 8, 2006 That site seems to hold the Flanker in high regards: The Sukhoi-27 Flanker is the standard by which Western aircraft are measured in the post cold war environment. Only the prohibitively expensive F-22 comes close to matching the Flanker on mission effectiveness

badaboom Posted September 8, 2006 Posted September 8, 2006 I really enjoyed it....great entertainment for 8 min.The scene where he's being chased by the rpg?[not sure if that's what it is] kinda reminds me of the scene in the movie "BEHIND ENEMY LINES"where the f/a-18F is being chased by 2 SAMS for like 20min......a whole lot of hollywood involved there lol!! [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]
Rhen Posted September 9, 2006 Posted September 9, 2006 A WHOLE LOT of Hollywood! Even if the missile did all that, the proximity fuse would've damaged his plane. I figured they'd at least stick with "real world" capabilities (not just the typhoon, but the missiles, etc as well) and stay away from the spice of watching fuel become afterburner, etc, since they're trying to sell a real aircraft, instead of a computer game of their aircraft...

Anyway it was the first made Su-35 kill on video :pilotfly: . Not sure where you saw several sustained 9G turns in that "Behind Enemy Lines" ripoff. The guy at the SAM battery even acted the same as Mr. "Super Sniper" in that movie. The first Su-35 kill on video? Well, if future wars are fought between CGI aircraft, the poor Su-35 doesn't stand a chance. :megalol: Great flick though, as corny as it was, it was still pretty cool.
