Yh there was an ARMA 3 gameplay video making the rounds on twitter this morning that hoodwinked a lot of people.
A-10 "Warthog", only flown by the USA.

But out of context, it could have fooled me too.
Unless it's been modded you'll find the Arma games have an absurd level of accuracy in their physics, they have the correct speed of bullets down to decimal points and other real world interactions like gravity and air resistance.
The entire engine is built around simulating the real world as far as technically feasible and the other half of the game studio uses it to sell war simulations to militaries around the world.
Arma 3 is a mess, even before taking apart their idea of future war (combat mission black sea did way better there)
At least mods fix most of the unit issues, albeit the game as it is just don't work as a milsim because any consideration between doctrine and taor and toe gets thrown out on the name of cool
I was more talking about the physics, I doubt there's any other game on the planet that takes it's so far wrt emulating the real world.
I think what gives it away is that it's too crisp. Look at other combat footage, even from today's events. It's grainy (especially night footage), blurry, seldom very clear and definitely not as crisp. Even the sound is worse in real footage and often arrives at the "wrong" moment, not matching exactly what you're seeing.
This one is too perfect to be true.
Ironic.
