  • @jackfoster911 great video man! my grandfather flew ME 109s for the Luftwaffe during the battle of britain and was shot down and captured by the British till the end of the war, the stories are very interesting!

    btw can you tell me the name of the song that starts at 0:48?

  • Great and long work, congratulations!

    Probably real planes were kept in great care and didnt fly with such scraps as you have in the texture...

  • The Spit markings are all the same in this vid and the roundals are wrong ? Being picky ;-)

  • Nobody can say anything bad about the Spitfire, It saved Britain from invasion and proved to be our greatest fighter Air-Craft early in the war. Without the Spitfire i dont think the Hurricane would have won the Battle of Britain(Biggest Air-battle in history)

  • @martynrobin121 both hurricane and spitfire are icons hurricane could absorb more damage and was a stable gun platform and could land on a field or concrete weras a spitfire was more fussy its undercarriage was more delicate it was a more temperamental plane and the hurricane shot down more planes than the spitfire its horses for courses and all history we must not forget

  • godlike roll in at 3:50 n!ce 

  • Hey what's up w/ the door on the second spit at 1:25

  • Great vid, nice music!

    2:04 is nice, same QV-H division reg fighters ;-P

  • What song is this? I wanna know sooo badly!

  • I really wish they would bring back the game. :(

  • this is AMAZING.. how did you make this? what recording program? and stuff

  • This may sound scary and stupid but.... My favourite plane is Hurricane

  • I'll take IL-2 1946 over this game any day of the week... that said its not a bad movie, think some people should cut the crap with aircraft formations, from what I saw in the movie neither side flew in any formation, the British V formation or the German Finger-Four formation, not even the German Heinkels were in any kind of order, which I guess would be hard to do for a movie on this game.

  • @CJLinton #1 You have no choice between IL-2 and Fighter ace..Fighter ace is gone . Spits and hurries had only mins to get up and find the HE-111 and ME-109's and were mostly under them by the time they got to them forget about formations ..And ya in the game it was hard to do. my friend made a few of the videos Try Fighter Ace LTD you will see a few of us in formation my call sign is Timberwolf or Timber : )

  • Nice bullet sounds from Saving Private Ryan.

  • It's cool.

  • nice work jack, i enjoyed watching =S=

  • Fantastic movie jackfoster911!!! So sad to see this game go away! 9 days and counting...

  • how do you make film like these?

  • Bad Gunsight!

  • Love the sounds you've dubbed over, gotta love the sound of the merlin inside a spit. Nicely done knowing and considdering how much efforts been put in :)

  • that was awesome.. well done.

  • where you all aware thes planes were kept in the air by canadian mechanics, not to mention the canadian pilots. but your all right , without the help of other countries and their friendships where would any of us be.

  • @Reservoir1951 Don't forget the rest of the Commonwealth, mate - Aussies, Kiwis, South Africans, etcetera.

  • @SloopJon Yes everyone helped it was team work by many countries

  • althou graphics and realism of flight/combat sucks, this is a 5* video. good job!!

  • what r the names of the music? Great video btw!

  • Okay, good style, I like it. :) But,

    2:00 The RAF did not use the 'finger four' formation during the Battle of Britain. It looks like you may have taken some inspiration from 'Pearl Harbour'. Don't do that. :P

    Also, it's HIGHLY unlikely that the Spits would've been higher than the enemy escort, the 109's flew well above the formation in most cases in order to bounce the incoming interceptors.

    3:03 Why don't the 109's break formation?

    Good film, I liked it, but some nags from me. :D V.Epic

  • whats the 2nd music?

  • some epic flying

  • I don't know this sim but from what I see it has great potential. It needs to be run through the mod ringer like IL2.

  • Oh look, the usual crappy graphics of FighterAce, no good visual effects at all.

  • i know, im a history geek, BUUUTT, the spitfire didnt have D Day stripes during the battle of britain, and the gunsights for the Spit was wrong. But i have to say awesome video man. cool :)

  • who cares im one too

  • First two things I spotted as well, kinda ruined my immersion. Great minds think alike. xD

  • Yeh Jerry's get owned!

  • What does the beginning part have to do with the rest of the movie!?

    A Spitfire Mk.IX with Invasion stripes strafing and bombing an airfield?

    Anyway, the rest is very very nice, good work!

  • can anyone tell me the name of this song?

  • Wait till you see IL-2: 1946

    Thats the real deal. This here is nice to see but not as realistic as IL_2 and there's quite a margin.

  • Can this be played online?

  • Yes it's an online game.

    Google Fighter Ace by ketsujin, and you will find it.

    Free trial first 14 days i think.

    From arcade to advanced rooms.

    Events with 200+ players in one room.

  • no its a Month Trial =) so first 30 days is free and u dont have to type in Credit card or anything for it

  • name of the game?

  • Fighter Ace, you download it for your computer.

  • thx iro

    this is what I said on specific Hartmann

    videos, but got so much abuse,

    as neo-nazis were not to be convinced,

    that Hartmann's tactics

    1. would have got him court-marshalled as a lone raider

    2. also if he had stuck to Luftwaffe orders in BoB, he would not have had HALF so much time to line-up his kills

    2-3 SECONDS BURSTS thats all before you got, before getting tagged from behind

    Adolf Galland was the best, as he flew at top level throughout WW2

  • nice! i play too:D:D

  • All the die-hard nazis in other videos, are saying that the

    Luftwaffe pilot, Hartmann, would have slaughtered the Spitfires and RAF, had he fought in the Battle Of Britain

    he was credited with over 350 kills on Russian front

    any thoughts?

  • 350 Kills In a Aircraft?

  • Credited with 352 apparently

    -look up videos on Hartmann

  • He was a talented pilot no doubt about it,but he wouldn't have of had the tactical advantages or technological superiority he enjoyed in Russia(especially during the infanticide the Jagdwaffe enjoyed against the VVS in 41/42) over the south of England other formidable Luftwaffe experten died in the BoB so his career might well of been cut short .

  • Hartmann came to the front in mid 1942 and only really started his killing spree in early-mid '43 when the Russians had come up with vastly improved fighters such as the La-5, Yak-1B, Yak-9 so he didnt at all benefit of the huge technical superiority of the German Luftwaffe early in the war. He even kept on flying the G-6 long into 1944 shooting down La-5FNs, La-7s and Yak-3s in that very plane. Much later he converted to G-14s, G-10s and the last plane he flew was a K-4.

  • I stand corrected,thankyou .

  • Wasn't it a K-14?

  • No, only a handful of K-14s were ever made and those were sent to "Reichsverteidigungs" units fighting the Allied bombers at high altitudes. As Hartmanns flew on the Eastern Front and at much lower altitudes this would have been a waste. Besides the earlier K models were better at low-medium altitudes

  • He did fight on the Western front and scored only 2 or 3 victories.

  • I'd have to disagree, Hartmann's tactics, if I remember correctly, relied on getting in very close to the enemy aircraft before firing. I doubt circumstances during the battle would've allowed for such tactics, as the 109 was stretched to its maximum range, they had British AAA to contend with, the bombers to escort, etc etc. Hartmann is an outstanding pilot, of course, but it still wouldn't have made him the "Terminator" if he fought during the Battle.

  • Really nice vid. I don't know this game at all but these shots, just brilliant.

  • Not bad vid..pretty good. More realism is that the Brits usually flew in "V" formation, just 3 planes and that was a tactical mistake unlike the Germans 4 plane squads, which allowed each plane a wingman. Also, early Spits had carbs and engine sputtered when upside down. The 109s had fuel injection and beating the Spits until they put injection into them.  The 109s were better at diving and that was their salvation most of the time.

  • Thank you for comment. You study much history. You are a historian.

    However, is not there sense of incongruity when spitfire of traditional V formation repulses Bf109 of finger4?

    RAF that this learned finger4 in the latter period repulses Bf109. You may think with such a setting. Make the sun a back, besides.

  • @Wales223 "The 109s were better at diving" they were faster but had serious compressibility issues when diving at high speed though

  • @Wales223 thats true but spit fires had some atvantages to like the could fly faster and turn quicker and they were equiped with eight .303 browning machine-guns

  • Great video. One of the best Fighter Ace vids out there. I love the Spitfire takeoff sequence around 1:30. As far as those commenting on the Spit IX with the invasion stripes...

    Yeah they didn't have them in 1940. The stripes or Spitfire Mk IXs. And they also weren't used in an offensive role in the BoB such as strafing enemy positions. I think the creator of the vid was showing what the results of the RAF's victory in the BoB led to later in the war.

  • Thank you.trupr.

    Your guess is a correct answer.

    However, some seem not to have been able to see so it.

  • your country is shit loses the true wining of the battle is the luftwaffe germany "pendejos"

  • shadow2788katia: And where did you extrapolate this from?

  • The first spit had v-day stripes! 1944.

  • Thank you for comment.

    Spitfire of the beginning of the video is not Spitfire at the age of "Battle of britain".

    However, the enthusiast knows it.

    In the middle of a video, Spitfire Mk.I and Bf109E-4 appear.

    Did you look?

  • Yes I did! Excellent video, well worn aircraft ,cooling flaps coming down "but" when I saw it the other time around I noticed that at least 3 spits have the same lettering QV-H nothing to be bothered about, just noticed!

  • @1339LARS D-day.

  • ''Never in the history of human conflict was so much owed by so many to so few''

    did winston churchill said at the end of the Battle of Britain day: 15th of september1940

  • Winston Churchill - the Icon of WWII who stood alone against fascism when everyone else turned a blind eye to it. Britain having single handedly won Battle of Britain 1940 without whom the West was Lost...''if we fail, the world including united states will sink into abyss of a dark new age''

    His other legendary quote..

    ..."History will be kind to me, for i intend to write it"

    WOW.. just WOW. Churchill as greatest war leader ever, we salute you Sir, thanks Britain for MERLIN Engine also

  • Britain did not single handedly win. If it wasnt for the Pilots of the Commonwealth, Poland, Czechoslovakia and others, things might have been very different. Remember that.

  • In the entire Royal Air Force of over 9000.. less than 500 werent Brits. I work that out as 93% were British, thats a comprehensive number.. and no i aint taken anythin away from the other pilots

  • The Poles, New Zealanders all helped out.

  • Also egyptians and israeli! even the exil-french guys fought angry against the "sauerkrauts"!!!

  • absolutely right

    -the Polish were especially determined to kill German pilots, after the invasion of their country, the bombing

    of their towns, the ruthless Stuka raids, and Warsaw etc.

    and dont forget Australian, Canadian, Czech, and a few Americans too, who when allowed, came into it a lot more after Pearl Harbour

    very sorry if I missed out any other countries

  • Darkmossie: a typically flawed, borderline stupid view of the war that has become a "school of thought"; it sees the RAF Polish pilots as some sort spoiled children who possessed some "special privilege" to kill Germans and to commit whatever the fuck they want against Germany and that can not be held accountable for war crimes.BULLSHIT. The Poles are full shit, they were no "archangels" fighting to "liberate" their nation. Poles also served in Soviet uniform in case you didnt know...

  • Polish pilots "spoiled children"?

    "special privilege to kill Germans"?

    Polish war crimes against Germans?

    "Poles full of shit" you say as well

    a totally  incoherent rant

  • Vonkaunaz: I'm sorry, I can't see through those sweeping generalizations you've made. Go have a cry about the war crimes of other Polish soldiers somewhere else. The pilots of 303 Squadron were absolutely fucking outstanding, and were the highest scoring squadron of the entire battle, despite having a late start AND flying the Hurricane, an aircraft considered inferior to the Spitfire.

    I'd like to fucking see you try that sometime, mate.

  • I read his autobiography

    I think it was Mackie? famous New Zealand ace, RAF fighter pilot, sadly lost to us now

  • You're forgetting that number 303 Squadron was all Polish, and happened to have the highest number of kills at the end of the Battle. You're also forgetting that the RAF lost around 500 aircraft during the Battle of Britain. Without 500 more foreign pilots, where would Britain be now?

    Meaning no disrespect towards English pilots, they were also outstanding during the battle, but I believe foreign pilots should also be given credit here. PolakInHolland's statement rings true.

  • My grandfather fought in one of the polish squadrons:) The only thing I don't know is which squadron was he flying in:(

  • shut it

  • great video man, reminds me of Battleground Europe lol

    can you tell me what song this is? its stuck in my head = p

  • Very good video dude i loved it all

  • I am very glad to get comment of the praise from all of you.

    I will pray in future to have such a work.

    Thank you very much.

  • HI jackfoster911

    Excellent movie M8

    Superb quality,great realism

    I like it

    10/10

    Respect

    Keith :)

  • The game looks horrible (flight model and effects) but great video. I'm sure you worked hard on this and it shows. 5*

  • Superb video!!! Gotta get this game!

  • Excellent job! I hope you get paid for this sort of thing.

  • Well done and thanks to the polskis. they never got the credit they deserved.

  • of coarse was an allied effort,not just Brits flew em!

    Aussies, Canadians etc.

    But the Poles were admired greatly!

  • To all of you the Spitfire the greatest plane ever built

  • something our youth have not been taught the raf had some of the finest and bravest men fighting in the second world war the spitfire put the fear of god into the enemys hearts god bless em

  • I really like this one, good job!

    *****

  • "it's like shooting rats in a barrel".

    "you'll all be in a barrel if you don't watch out for the fighters".

  • ha ha, the movie "Battle of Britain"

  • hail to the brilliant few

  • I have to read up on these brilliant men who flew for Britain- what brave men they were- I love these films although I get very emotional when I watch. It makes one realise how lucky they were to come back alive-!!!

    I can testify to this as my own father was one of these fighter Pilots in world war 2. He saw his best friend being shot down in flames and there was nothing he could do but watch in horror!!!

  • the graphics leave much to be desired.The opening part, bombing the aa guns doesn't seem real enough compared to the other scenes. Overall, great vid! The music timing is perfect!

  • Read some history books, it was an allied effort.

  • Absolutely brilliant. Well done!

  • Awesome video. Used to play FA but been absent about 2 years now. Graphics look to have improved and this video makes me want to come back.... but, I was an addict and it nearly cost me a marriage! LOL

  • This game cost you a marriage almost? That's dedication One + for you my friend.

  • This is the FA video by which all others are compared. This is the benchmark by which all that come behind it are judged.

    It was the inspiration that got me started making Fighter Ace vids, but i have yet to (and I doubtI ever will) make it's equal

    very nicework EGL squad

  • very cool cinematography folks! graphic engine may be better, but editing is really nice...5

  • this is epic! can't belive you managed to put this togheter using a game. it compares to scenes seen in movies for crying out loud!

    great job, you got real talent. keep it up!

  • You praise too much me, but I am very glad. Thank you very much.

    Unfortunately there is not the plan making the next movies now.

    The reason is because I cannot make a good movies more than this movies.

    I do not have the talent more than this.

    But it revives again if a good idea appears.

    The original of this movie is high definition, high-grade sound more.

    You may download it from somewhere if you look for it.

  • realmente que quieres decir con bercion original si el video esta buenisimo!!!!.

  • it is necessary to pay if i want to play ace fighter

  • the grafik is bad but the suond i good

  • Is this video graphic bad?

    Because it wanted to say you, did you register yourself with youtube?

    I am very so sad. boy.

  • los bombarderos alemanes solo tenian dos motores, poca autonomia,los espirfair maniobraban mejor,muy importante,separaban a la escolta alemana de caza,mesermit poca autonomia,entonces atacaban los hurricanes a los bombarderos,sencillo,pero muy eficaz.

  • came out the sun...clever lads!

  • What game is this? plz let me know, tnx

  • The name of this game is "FighterAce".

    Plz watch "More info" of the top right corner.ty

  • Most excellent work, inspires me to make another flight sim film myself. I can only imagine how tough it was to choreograph and film all of this, but you managed to do it beautifully. 5/5! ;)

  • I deeply appreciate.

    However, your video is more excellent more beautifully.

    I admire you.

  • Fun crap - Invasion of Europe stripes on a Battle of Britain Spit We all feel sorry for the guy who made this game!

  • there was stripes on the intro plane, but during the fighting they didn't have them

  • invasion stripes on plane in the opening scene put it in Jun 44, likely a Spit Mark IX?

    Planes involved in the rest of the vid looked like Spit Mark I, as they would be in 1940

  • The second most bvious giveaway, after the clear D-Day black and white markings, was that Spitfires weren't on bombing or strafing runs during the Battle of Britain. Who were they to strafe;- their own side?

  • I think the main volume of this video to be a picture start one minute later, the London sky, formation takeoff of Mk.Ia, a battle of Dover.

    Naturally Sheen of the stripe pit is not BOB.

    By the way, "Eagle" means "TEAM EAGLE sqd" of "Game-FighterAce" not "1940 US Eagle squadron".

    There is too much misunderstanding.

  • The video itself doesn't sat Battle of Britain. It says "Eagle."

    Eagle was indeed the Allied effort to control the skies over Normandy on June 6, 1944 and after.

    I teach History, including a lecture on the Battle of Britain. This is 1944 in the video.

  • yeh but Eagleday was the attempted German wipe out of the RAF on the ground

  • Hurricanes were better against German bombers because they took more punishment and were steadier during final attack.

    Spits of course took on the 109s. The opponent of the Mark XI was usually the far better matched FW-190.

  • I finally read the fair comment that was not your joke. Thank you.

    I understood that you had knowledge.

    And I want to know real position military unit and the activity of all airplanes appearing to this video.

    However, I cannot understand what you want to insist on about this video.

  • Actually, this whole thing seems to be 1944, not 1940. The ground terrain is not Brit. And there are no Hurricanes taking out the bombers.

    This thing must be about June, 1944, in Normandy.

  • I think it's neat. It's a game, for crying out loud. And a decent looking one at that!

  • That Spit is from June 6, 1944.

    What a joke.

  • Your somniloquy is a joke, too.

    Wake up. lolol

  • for the white lines right?

  • Yeah, Those are D-Day markings so we could tell our fighters from theirs.

  • It is so. spitfire appearing in the first scene is Mk.IXe.

    you know Mk.IXe?

  • Right. To be July 1940 here, those should be mk 2s.

  • dude wats the name of that song that starts at :48 secs

  • The people who do these games--how much research do they ever do? The Spit in this game is obviously not a Mark I or II; it looks suspiciously like a Mark IX, as others have mentioned. The BoB Spits were pure fighters, with no bombing capability. And what about the zebra stripes? Aren't those about 4 years too early for 1940? I'm getting the impression that the people who create these games are also the same ones who make Hollywood movies. Research? Authenticity? Huh?

  • He does not watch this movie for one minute either. Somebody please comment.

  • In the game you have hundreds of types of planes to choose from theres atleast 6 diffent spits even a seafire tempest etc good vid the start of the film looks like a "warm up" to the film

  • I guess the good thing about getting shot down over Britain wouldve been that you were a P.O.W. and wouldve never had to fight on the Eastern Front.

  • a ""battle of Britain" spit with D-day markings?

  • It is strange that spitfire does a ground-attack in battle of Britain than it.

    Do you mind Mk-IXe marking and D-day?

  • Now that was a nice video.

  • HG-thejarra

    brilliant guys you could almost be there

  • is this the pc game you can buy.

    TEZZ

  • Its a shame they dont sell this game in australia because im a fighter ace in almost every flight sim i play

  • I bought IL2 1946 when it first came out, ive logged over 4,000 kills 11 deaths, 5 crash landings 4,667 safe landings and four bails. Online..against the most experienced pilots i have met. (BF-109 G2 II./JG53Vinum) HyperLobby.

  • you can download it from fa website m8

  • Never say you're the best; you will always find better than you.

    ... and in the true life : you die ;-)

  • There are many of your countrymen that fly Fighter Ace. Like thejarra said, you can download it for free from the website...fighterace(.)ketsuji­n(.)com. Please try it! You'll love it!

  • If you like this video, then I challenge you to try this game. I promise you, you'll love it! Who am I? I am the AXIS Commander: JG51_Cavefox, and if you have the talent, or even if you think you can learn it, come on and fly with us!

  • He ho, please come down on the Earth.

    You are dreaming too much ;-)

  • I take it we won't be seeing you fly with us on the AXIS side? lol ;-)

  • nice i watched it 5 times and i love it fighter ace rocks!! its a lot better than combat flight simulator becuase of newer graphics and everything!!!!

  • This music from a sound track of X-Men2 or 3.

    And the original of this movie is more high sound quality.

  • Good job! What is the music from?

  • very nice movie great job with the sound and music dont stop to doing this

  • wots the song called?

  • Nice

  • What the name of this music?

  • nice movie!

  • is this game off the computer because if it is. I want 2 get. and could u tell me the site name 2 get it.plz

  • Beginners compare it well. However, it is a well-known fact that IL2 is a high picture and rial than FA. Did this video let an IL2 user repeat the argument again? Such a thing does not matter.

    With only material of the FA, it is what such a video can make. It is only merely it.

  • Fighter Ace may have a good online but it crashes compaired to il2'46.  With il2 you can skin the airplane, make noseart, and custimizer maps,thats some FA can't do, Also Il2'46 has a free server for online play for up to 128 players.

  • iv played both FA and IL2 and all though the graphic's of the ground objects could be better in FA the flying is far more like a real plane in FA. I'v flown a real cesna before and FA is a lot like it IL2 is more like BF1942 to arcadeish and unrealistic

    But still IL2 is fun. If you want realisum go with fa.Nice work on the vid jack love the sound 5*

  • I've played FA before. I think the FM's in il2 are more realistic than FA. Over at Mission4Today we have real ww2 pilots that say the game does justice to the aircraft. Oleg did an incredible job, knowing we have over 300 aircraft.

  • i just dont like the way the planes in IL2 handle,in the cockpit i try to pull a loop and it doesn't seem real in FA it does something about the altitude in IL2 doesn't seem true to life in FA it does. Plus i like the bullit tracers better in FA.

  • 1946 is a great game, as are all the IL2 series but there not a massive online multiplayer game. FA is and you can not have great graphics and when you have to be able to have 100+ in a single room. For example The recent Historical events have had between 150-200+ players in one room, now thats something the Il2 series cant do.

  • Amen to that Woody! ~S~ HG_Steely_Dan_68

  • can anyone tell me what the music when the spits are attacking the bombers is called? btw, nice vid =D

  • Thats a real roar of a spit sounds like sex dam i think i need a smoke now..lol good job!

  • This video is awesome and so is the music. Really inspirational and emotional music, it really helps create the mood. Where can I get the music!??

  • I heard them saving private ryan sound effects......again

  • Great video, i realy like the sound effects.

  • which is better, combat flight simulator 3, or fighter ace (don't be bias)
