(feel shame) seriously?!? fake "jet" sounds on take-off footage terrible hollywood gun sounds dubbed over the real sound of the gun firing tired old early 1990's beat-to-death footage I couldn't take it...stopped watching 15 minutes in.

Harzach Posted June 14, 2012 Posted June 14, 2012 It's been on Youtube for a while, it seems. Full program (low res): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZjW4FYHhYm8
Corrigan Posted June 14, 2012 Posted June 14, 2012 Watched some of it on youtube... Let's just say that I'd not really describe it as AMAZING. Win10 x64 | SSDs | i5 2500K @ 4.4 GHz | 16 GB RAM | GTX 970 | TM Warthog HOTAS | Saitek pedals | TIR5
Harzach Posted June 14, 2012 Posted June 14, 2012 Agreed - as gear monkey mentioned, the sound design is pretty bad, and the whole thing feels kind of hacked together and dated. Which it may be - no idea when this was actually made.
BTTW-DratsaB Posted June 14, 2012 Posted June 14, 2012 Good documentary but it is old. Damn, I was looking forward to some new A10 doc!

Evil.Bonsai Posted June 14, 2012 Posted June 14, 2012 (edited) There was a newer doc, can't remember if I saw it youtube or military channel, but one of the hog pilots was a youngish and extremely cute brunette female pilot. Found it on youtube: Modern Marvels A10 Tankbuster parts 1-5. One of the newest docs on the A10 I've seen. part 2: side note: the cute pilot is Danielle Curley, and is now flying and training new pilots on the MQ-1 Predator. very cool.

ErichVon Posted June 15, 2012 Posted June 15, 2012 (edited) I learned more about the Warthog in DCS, than I did last night watching the "Great Planes" Warthog video. But it was still fun to watch. The retired general, now museum director, stated that firing the gun did not significantly slow down the aircraft. Yet, I have seen guys come onto a simulated cartoon aircraft carrier (CV) while firing their A-10 gun to significantly slow themselves down, on a few YouTube videos I have watched, and land successfully. I tried that, and the gun would not fire with the gun safeties switched off. Somehow these guys overrode the gun safety on landing approach. Or I did it wrong. {;^) Edited June 16, 2012 by ErichVon
Hamblue Posted June 15, 2012 Posted June 15, 2012 The gun sounded almost like a 50 cal. The rate of fire seemed like a third of what I've ever seen Asus Sabertooth P67 Motherboard 2600k CPU, 16 gig DDR3, 1600.

ED Team Olgerd Posted June 16, 2012 ED Team Posted June 16, 2012 Well wait didn't the gun have multiple selectable firing rates? A low and a high, like 2k and 6k RPS? Since the times A-10C was introduced there is no more such an option available for the pilot. However the lower rate will be selected automatically in the case of the partial hydraulics failure.

MTFDarkEagle Posted June 16, 2012 Posted June 16, 2012 That's not modeled in DCS, is it? It is. Try this: set up a hyd failure in flight. Once you have less pressure, fire the cannon. You'll notice a drop in firerate. Lukas - "TIN TIN" - 9th Shrek Air Strike Squadron TIN TIN's Cockpit thread
