    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.

    a bit of extra information: The notch's full name is "notch filter", which some of you might already know from audio processing or other information processing. That's exactly what it is, the radar filters out the ground because otherwise it would be way too much useless data. The wider the notch filter, the more it can deal with noise and be sure what it detects is an actual fast moving object, the downside is - as shown in the video - it also filters out possible threats. Higher quality radars can therefore "get away" with using a smaller notch, making almost perpendicular moving objects more likely to be detected

    Additional unpopular opinion: The Foxbat-E is my #1 most wanted REDFOR jet in DCS. There's something about the purity of a single-/limited-role aircraft that appeals to me, specifically big interceptors with big missiles. Don't even get me started about the split nozzles on the R-40 - it's such a unique design and looks badass as it boosts off the jet.

    • @That70sGuitarist
      @That70sGuitarist ปีที่แล้ว +1

      "Warriors" is my favourite air combat novel, but Tillman's other books (The Sixth Battle," and "Dauntless") are also pretty darned good, too. Tillman certainly understands modern air combat, but you'd expect as much from the former managing editor of "Tailhook" magazine.😉
      Rounding out my top three favourites are "In The Company Of Eagles," by Ernest K. Gann, about a feud between a German ace and a French pilot, and "Ace," by Spenser Dunmore, about a high scoring WWII German ace. They're all great reads, very well written, fast paced and exciting.

    Hoping we get more content with Mig 25's , Mig 31's and SR -71's - after all, that hornet shootdown was by a foxbat who then just literally outran EVERY other fighter jet in the air - We don't get enough of these hit and run attacks from the few mach 3 ish jets out there!
    Like, could Growling Sidewinder have done this against 2 human players doing hit and runs at literally top speed? I don't think he'd be able to get a solution at all on two foxbats doing mach 2.8 - mach 3 , while doing hit and run strikes......
    Well played! Here's strongly hoping for more Foxbat/Foxhound/Blackbird material- it's ridiculously fascinating to see how powerful speed is, in a world today where it's forgotten(and stealth is all the rage- but stealth / merging / your usual firing angles and solutions won't give you a kill on someone at Mach 3)

      The Foxbat and Foxhound can't do Mach 3 for long. Every Foxbat that tried it wound up melting its engines and the Foxhound is hardwired to never exceed Mach 2.8. Operationally speaking, both are limited to Mach 2.5 to extend engine life. The Foxbat almost got another kill during Desert Storm, by the way. One of them managed to score a hit on an F-15C that managed to limp back home.

    Okay, i have one question.. foxbats being interceptors, ideally, if you merge, they should maintain their heading and accelerate out, right? It would take some time for an aircraft to turn, and if foxbats do their max speed, i.e. mach 3, they should be able to make some distance in between..
    I understand that with reheat, the foxbats will be prime target for sidewinders, and those missiles do travel a lot faster.. but i was just wondering about the standard procedure.

    I know this would probably be a pain for both pilots, but I’d love to see the MiG-25 go against another plane that can’t dog fight. My first thought is the MiG-21 but I’m sure there are other planes that could fit that bill.

      MiG 21s are fairly nimble.
      Something like an F-106, F-111 or one of the Sukhoi swing-wings would probably work real well though.

      @@wwclay86 The F-104 is a very competent fighter itself:
      "Yeah, just about everybody could out turn a -104 in the usual subsonic dogfight area. But the only birds that gave us a hard time - with the old engine! - were the F-106 and the F-8. The secret was never slowing down and using the vertical to the maximum."
      "The F-100D SuperSabre, F-104C Starfighter, F-105D Thunderchief, and F-4C Phantom II were individually evaluated. All of them had difficulty trying to maneuver with the MiG simulator. The F-104, however, did the best against the highly maneuverable adversary. How did the nearly wingless “missile with a man in it” pull this off? By exploiting the 104’s speed and energy advantage. The F-105 and F-4 could have done much the same, but they were found to have very restricted cockpit visibility, particularly when the F-86 was in a position of advantage."
      The F-106 might be more manoeuvrable but it's got much worse visibility, based on Operation Feather Duster I anticipate the advantage in visibility likely outweighs the advantage in agility.

      A MiG-21 can dogfight, though not against a modern jet of course. But against aircraft of its era it was capable. Even though it wasn't meant to be a dogfighter, it could hold its own.
      I suspect that, while harder in the MiG-21, the fight would go pretty much the same way as the one involving the F-5. If the MiG-21 can evade the BVR missiles and get to the merge, the MiG-25 is as good as dead.
      All this doesn't mean it wouldn't be fun to watch a 21 v 25 video.

Another excellent demonstration of 'what tactics not to use'...
