    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 such a shame they canceled the Raptor program. Every time I see the Raptor hunting shot where the camera is looking down and rearwards from the prey is bloody scary. Reminds of when the Raptor snuck up on GS and saw it in his rear view mirror. Your soul leaves your body because it knows your time is up.

    • @jklappenbach
      @jklappenbach 10 หลายเดือนก่อน +44

      I would be shocked if Congress didn't cough up a few billion to modernize a fleet of 100 raptors when it comes time to decommission them.
      Then again, if NGAD is even half what I think it's going to be, the F22 might become a relic at that time.
      Two technologies are in heavy R&D which will punctuate that:
      1. Multi-cycle engines that enable ramjets to be paired with traditional turbofans.
      Or...
      2. Rotating detonation engines. It's likely that these won't be ready for NGAD's initial release. But once RDEs are production ready? Nothing will even come close.

    Cool seeing the Darkstar (Darkstrike?) in DCS good scenario. Quick ID check for Russian bombers: The targets in question were TU22M Backfires, not TU22 Blinders. A key difference is the intake position; the Blinder's are back by the tail, Backfires have more conventional ones up front. Of course, they all look the same after a JDAM.

    Excellent performance! That’s definitely a job for two fighters, so you worked harder for it. Tiny correction: I think those were Backfire bombers, not Blinders. It’s the newer model with inline ducts, not tail-mounted external turbines. At least that’s what I saw.

    • @Takataz
      @Takataz 3 หลายเดือนก่อน

      No adding the f22 kind of defeats the purpose of the darkstar. Ds is up high enough to not need protection and by starting dogfights near the target you’re just giving time for the enemy to either flee or prepare.

    What an effing performance. I was slightly disappointed he didn't take on the Felons initially even though it was the correct and calculated decision but then the redemption at the end. The only thing that could have made this flawless is by shooting (at the Migs) a missile at the 1st bandit and gunning the 2nd at the moment of impact so there could be no warning to other crafts. Very well done sir. PLEASE keep these type of Raptor videos coming!

    If "Darkstar" is doing an kinetic run on targets then its designation would not be (S)trategic (R)econnaissance it would be (B)omber or maybe (M)ulti role. Though I like the Idea of (A)atack/(F)ighter - 71. Mach 10 firing a 20mm.

    But really, they need to extend the DCS environment fully into space, at least out to the orbit of the International Space Station. I know, it's a military sim, but being able to fly legit space missions in DCS would be so cool.
