Check out the Merch Store: teespring.com/stores/growling-sidewinder-store Just a little video to show you guys how I fly when I use the Hornet on my PvP server, not to say this is the only way but this is just how I do it, if you have things/tactics you use when you fly the hornet go ahead and share below to help people struggling. Thanks for watching guys and I'll see you in the next one.

Could you do a video explaining data link, radar and the HUD. Just so i can keep up with the narrative, example being that first engagment when you spot two bandits trying to flank you so you go cold and bug out. Where are you seeing this data? The left radar screens shows like 3/4 targets, also some planes you seem to cycle though radars, could you explain a bit about that. Like if WW3 started tomorrow, i've never flown a fighterjet so i kind of want to be able to jump in a seat and know how to operate the plane to defend, to secure kills and really have that situational awareness. I could imagine there is a very step learning curve, and while you do great explaining the mar and strategy, i can't really follow your reasoning because i don't understand the data your compiling from the instruments.
