    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.

    • @bjrneirikstrkersen1021
      @bjrneirikstrkersen1021 ปีที่แล้ว +11

      Dunno about anyone doing that, but it would be a much harder matchup. IR imaging, colossal advantage in armour and firepower, much better mobility in any scenario. Best bet, I think, would be something with a huge gun with HE shell that can lay in ambush and get one shot in side or rear.
      Best 'tanks' for this, from the top of my mind, would be either the Sturer Emil or the ISU152. Big guns, huge HE shells, can have a low profile (hull down for the Sturer Emil; its pretty huge otherwise).

    • @bjrneirikstrkersen1021
      @bjrneirikstrkersen1021 ปีที่แล้ว

      Aye, aircraft have to be somewhat fragile; other considerations like speed, manouverability, stealth, carrying ordanance etc. trumps making the aircraft impervious to damage, which is likely to be impossible anyhow.
      I think big WW2 HE shell is the way to go; most modern AT missiles have 5-10kg warheads with advanced penetrating capabilities. The ISU-152s shells, by comparison, are not any form of advanced, but they are HUGE; the HE shells carry almost 30kgs of explosive filler..... I dont care what you're riding, you're gonna feel it!
      Of course, a frontal shot on any kind of M1 is futile; at best you'll hit the gun and render it inoperable, but thats not a recommended course of action with WW2 sights and accuracy..... But a side or rear shot, engine and tracks can be damaged, and if you can make an M1 a sitting duck, well, both the Emil and the ISU doubles as artillery pieces and can pull back to pummel it with artillery shells until those inside have either fled or died.
      Funny thing is, one disadvantage the M1 has is that it requires more or less direct line of fire - quite a few WW2 guns, especially the big ones that doubles as artillery pieces, has significant shell drop and can lob shells in ways the M1 just cant.

      It wouldn't even be closer. Modern tanks armor is way more advanced. They are faster and more maneuverable. But the big differntiation is that they can target better and engage in more environments and distance. The only way a WW2 tank would have a shred of a shot is if they had numbers and an ambush. Lots of people have analyzed this.

    The random rolls you're getting in the turn are accelerated stalls. You can minimize them, and decrease your turn radius by using flaps. The flap extension speed for the first notch is 450 mph IIRC. If you go vertical or you're trying to get some energy back, get rid of them, but otherwise those are invaluable.

    I'll be honest: I have no idea how you figured out a guns solution on the fly for a F22. It flies faster than anything you'd ordinarily need to lead with those .50 cals, and the .50s need to lead more than the higher velocity 20mm. The fact that you put trigger down for about a second, watched the tracers, and found a guns solution is honesly kind of ridiculously incredible. Even if he lost sight, I imagine a lot of otherwise competent P51 players would have alerted the Raptor pilot with a few misses and caused him to jink.

    Not the rout I would have expected- you lived long enough in the first round to see him make a fatal mistake AND made a good landing in a crippled Mustang. In the second round he had to resort to missiles to get you- effective but not sporting. In the third you shot him down fair and square.

    Obviously the rules of engagement were that the F-22 couldn't go into the vertical and use it's speed and climb advantage as you said before. It was still great to see the one circle and two circle fight. The man in the crate always makes the difference. Just like the P-51 pilots in WWII that managed to shoot down Me262s.

At the speeds and altitudes it would operate at that is surprisingly unlikely, ESPECIALLY considering it's continously large radar cross-section compared to modern fighters. It just doesn't look like a military aircraft on radar.

    A very entertaining video. Everyone needs to remember that dogfighting in the jet era is the last resort. We all saw what happened here when missiles come into play, and that is the tactic spot them before they spot you and kill them BVR before they know you are there. Ran out of missiles? Do what the other guy can't- go higher.

      @@AbsoluteyAmerican perhaps, it seems like that’s exactly what they may have done. Realistically the F-22 has many things that it can do to avoid getting hit by the P-51. Maybe it really did have one arm tied behind it’s back, maybe their agreement was to remain bellow a certain speed and altitude in order to give the P-51 a chance to stay within the turn circle. It actually makes a lot of sense. It does make me wonder though, if the F-22 was restricted then I want too see a version of the fight that the Raptor gives it it’s best attempt every time. I doubt the P-51 will have a chance but it sounds fun to view.
