    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 prefer more up close and personal dogfights consider the IL-2 Sturmovik: Great Battle series and experience intense WWII aerial combat over famous battlefields such as Stalingrad, Moscow, Rhineland and Normandy. Fight in and against Russian, American, German, British warbirds such as the P-51 Mustang, P-47 Thunderbolt, Bf-109, FW-190, Spitfire, Hurricane and rugged IL-2 Sturmovik attack plane. You can also fly legendary SPADS, Fokkers and Camels in WWI dogfights over the trenches of WWI and discover your inner Red Baron! And all of this can be experienced in jaw dropping virtual reality!
    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.

    with the thrust vectoring, this type of dogfighting reminds me a lot of the WW1 bi-plane dogfights...its almost a ballet in the sky...fighters capable of supercruise, dancing in the air at speeds that other aircraft would simply fall from the sky if they were to go that slow...cool vid!

Don't put it past the Chinese to suddenly attack you when they think they have the advantage and then just as easily put the blame on you for starting the fight and sue for peace as a "responsible power". That is just what the Chinese do. Take it from an Indian.

Could you do the same with BVR fights where one guy might have less missiles or you guys be offset to the right or left? Same thing with one maybe being higher or lower or in mountains where you have to rely on data link and stuff? Also, having a 2v2 BVR fight could be cool; say with 2 Raptors and 2 Felons?

    Round Two: The F-22 pilot, feeling generous after the First Round, performs a Syrian Lead Turn and gives GS ample opportunity to clean his clock with the both the 30mm and the R-73....
    Would the Su-30SM ever reach the merge with an F-22? In an ideal world, no... But we don't live in an ideal world. Politicians, more often than not, would handcuff the F-22; They could/have required "Visual Identification of the target" and "Direct Command Authority" which could/have put our pilots at a disadvantage. Since the F-22 doesn't have a FLIR/LANTIRN or TISEO like some of the legacy aircraft, the pilot would, literally, have to put eyeballs on the target.
    Let's hope (especially with shtuff heating up in Ukraine) that we never find ourselves in that position... Again.

    • @NationChosenByGod
      @NationChosenByGod 2 ปีที่แล้ว +18

      Well, first and foremost, there is a reason why the F-22 is an air superiority fighter meaning that the F-22 can track a target farther than its adversary while an F-35 complements an F-22 with its sensor and ground targeting system. Therefore, in BVR, an F-22 is better by miles.
