    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.

  • @MichelVaillancourt

    I think the thing that catches my attention most about this is how most videos with the F22 is just a series of summary executions reformatted to be a slam-dunk competition.
    All of these fly-outs were actually hard fights that allowed substantially longer time-in-mission than I'd have guessed at.

    The F15 tech demonstrator lacks the Raptor's Pratt and Witney F119 engines. There are a few reasons why this type of super-cruise engine should have been used in the F35 in all but the vertical takeoff version. I remember seeing this F15 back in the early 90s in an article. I thought all subsequent F15s would be built similarly. But, like the F16XL, the Airforce didn't use it. Thanks for explaining why.

      @Ankhobo 2 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      ​@@angrydragon4574 it's really just an export (and earlier) version of the EX, giving it a far superior engine and better avionics than the old C or E models. I hear that at airshows (the QA, not sure if any airshows with the EX have shown such maneuvers), it's been pulling off maneuvers you'd normally see from supermaneuverable jets. So while yes, not as impressive as the STOL/MTD, it's an improved eagle that's an actual production model.

    An Interesting way to look at it would be to realize that every f22 victory in this is still an f15 active victory as everything the active was built for to do was to demonstrate the tech to make the f22. The f22 is the success story of the f15 active. This fight really is the father seeing the son grow past what the father ever was and being extremely proud of rhat

    I've talked to the people who worked on the F-15 ACTIVE (when the STOL/MTD got 3-D TVC). I asked if they upgraded the motors to F100-PW-129s, they smiled and said "bigger". I commented about the massive Hornet-Tal of a canard coupled with the TVC as giving them some pretty amazing potential to which they replied "It'll beat up on the Raptor all day in close"
