    On this channel we like to do a lot of dogfighting most videos are some sort of dogfight between 2 different aircraft as we explore their different capabilities. From time to time I like to dabble in Virtual Reality, I think VR is a great new technology and I love to show that stuff off for the channel from time to time.
    If you enjoy war thunder or Microsoft flight simulator 2020 or even dogfighting in Battlefield 2042, consider getting yourself into Digital Combat Simulator by Eagle Dynamics, the Combat side of Aviation with the BVR and Dogfights really provides a different and interesting perspective on aviation. You can fly all kinds of combat aircraft including the F-16, F-15, F-14, JF-17, Su-27, Mig-29, Mirage and the F-18 Hornet along with many other aircraft and helicopters like the Ka-50 and Mi-8.

      It’s loaded on ejector rack activated by a cartridge. So once actuated, the cartridge ‘explodes’ and pushes hot high pressure gas to actuate the bell cranks to release the weapon and the ejector foot to launch the weapon away from the fuselage. Missiles mounted on rails won’t have this of course.

      The SU57 is a stealth plane, which had the RCS around 0.01m2 (as the size of the human fist or a bird). So the SU57 is a stealth, but not as stealthly as the F22 and F35 which has the RCS around 0.0001m2 (as the size of the small marble) and 0.005m2 (as the size of the pin ball). Even the 6 F16 didn't detect the SU57 at the medium to long range and still at the close range only 2 F16 able to launch only 1 AIM 120D at SU57, why because it has stealth capabilities, reduced RCS and ECCM and EW suite making it harder/difficult to look on radar and harder to lock on SU57 target. So the SU57 is stealth but not as stealthly as the F22 and F35.

      The improved version/first serial model of SU57 has the RCS around 0.01m2 (as the size fo the human fist or a bird) yes it has improved stealth features capabilities by applying 30% RAM coating on it, the SU57 intake has S duct inlet plus boundaries extractor layer with radar blockers and reduced RCS making it more stealthly than the prototype model T50. While the T50 has less RAM coating with exposed rivets, back part of the engine nacelles, intake with no radar blockers, unfixed of weapons door and expose spectrum of IRST making it the RCS around 0.1m2 which as the same size of an F/A 18 and Rafael. Yes the first serial model of SU57 has improved stealth features and reduced RCS around 0.01m2, but still it is not as stealthly as the F22 and F35 which has the RCS around 0.0001m2 (as the size of the small marble) and 0.005m2 (as the size of the pin ball).

      The improved version/ first serial model of SU57 has the RCS around 0.01m2 (as the size fo the human fist or a bird), the SU57 carry upto 10 active radar missile and 2 infrared missile. Which means it can take internally 4 active radar missile on the main bay and 2 infrared missile on the side bay for the stealth configuration. While in a full weapons combat on SU57 it can carry 6 external weapons pylons, but by putting the weapons on pylons it will increase the RCS around 0.15m2. But still the 6 F16 didn't detect the SU57, only 2 F16 able to see the SU57 but still it was difficult to lock on SU57 target and able to launch the missile only 1 missile on a close range, WHY because it has stealth capabilities, reduced RCS and ECCM and EW suite making it harder/difficult to see on radar and harder to lock on SU57 target. Even that the AWACS also has a problem why because it can find the SU57 but not properly where it is. Making it harder to look on radar. So the SU57 is a stealth, but not as stealthly as the F22 and F35 which has the RCS around 0.0001m2 and 0.005m2. But remember the stealth is not always invisible on radar, whether it is F22, F35, SU57 and J20 it will detect mostly from the close range by using strong radar/low frequency radar which make it easier to detect the stealth aircraft, but mostly it will detect on a close range.

  • @mattalford3932
    @mattalford3932 ปีที่แล้ว +10

    The missile knows where it is at all times. It knows this because it knows where it isn't. By subtracting where it is from where it isn't, or where it isn't from where it is (whichever is greater), it obtains a difference, or deviation. The guidance subsystem uses deviations to generate corrective commands to drive the missile from a position where it is to a position where it isn't, and arriving at a position where it wasn't, it now is. Consequently, the position where it is, is now the position that it wasn't, and it follows that the position that it was, is now the position that it isn't.

    How about an 1 F-22 vs 10 Eurofighters?? The MiG never stood even the slightest chance, but I think an F-22 would have a pretty interesting outcome. I bet the F-22 could kill all of them at least once, with a LOT of luck.

    I think it would be nice to be more precise in titles. F-16 has always been called "Viper" and it refers to more than just one aircraft. Especially, when we have this new F-16V version which is actually a Viper in name. So you could write F-16C or F-16 Block 50, so no one will mistake it for Block 70 or F-16A. We know when you use F-15EX but don't know when u use F-16V
    Also, I would love to see some BVR fights in F-35, against F-22, Su-57 and all types of Flankers. It;s quite an important stuff now in the world, where for example countries like Poland (my) are buying F-35, knowing it would have to fight with Flankers and Su-57, being worse in dogfights than 4th gens. Not to mention the F-35B/C fighting J-20/J-11 in the Pacific. Those simulations are needed!
