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. - เกม

Thanks for watching and I hope you enjoyed the video let me know if you'd like to see more videos of this nature in the future. Thanks again and take care, much Love.
Great video as always! But doesn´t the Eurofighter carry the Meteor instead of the AMRAAM? And would it be possible to make a bandit unknown in the Eurofighter?
F-22 Raptor VS Nine North Korean MIG-29's BVR
Yes, please.
@@Anarchy_420 raptor has just 8 internal hardpoints 2 of them fox 2 so its going to be atleast 1 kill with guns. would be funn to watch
@@blxuermaster9454 i think it carries a mix of it since you don´t need to many meteors and its larger and havier the the amraam
You got to love calling a missile designed to fly up a jet's tailpipe an ASRAAM. 😄
Definitely did it on purpose lmao
Lmao, How did I not notice until now?
LOL
You just know there was some steering committee early on in the project that was responsible for the naming conventions that spent an entire meeting giggling and trying to work up the courage to tell their commanding officers the name they had settled on.
It's the most British thing possible to give a very serious subject a rude yet descriptive acronym.
"Today in Growling Sidewinder School"... I've learned more about fighter jets by watching your videos in the last couple of years than in my entire life.
this!
when going by sheer numbers of a2a kills, the gbu-10 trumps the meteor 1-0...
😂
GBU-10*
I assume you're referring to when the F-15E scored an AA kill against a Hind I believe it was, in which case that was a GBU-10 not a 12.
@SpaceKraken and @Augie Hicks thanks i'll change it
@@augiehicks4588 I still wanna see that kill reproduced by Growling Sidewinder eventually, would be a really cool fucking video. He's been doing so much A-10 A2G recently, why not F-15 A2G? Let's pickle ourselves a Hind eh?
If you go by the books there are a lot of newer a2a missiles that have longer range, higher speed, better off boresight capability, more maneuverable, larger pitbull radius, or a warhead with bigger lethality zone; but Raytheon really knows how to make an accurate seeker, and this is where the AMRAAM truly shines.
The AIM-260 and the AIM-120D are great additions that imo fills the gaps for the next gen missle.
All those capabilities… well… true capabilities are all classified…. So it’s all guessing unless you know….
That being said… a 120… especially fired from an F-22 will fill a lot of coffins.
@@1KDave exactly 💯 % for all we know, it's been speculated aim-120D is more than its proclaimed amount. Of course why wouldn't it be? "Yeah our Missile can only do 86nmi, Still pretty good, but not as good as big scary China Missile.....................hey John, watch this".....*fires amraam over 100+nmi* Either walk tall and carry a big stick, or play a little Missile range hustle. Idk, I'm not a Missile expert. Maybe someone somewhere has been able to figure out its range just by looking at it.
There simply isn't enough publicly available data to conclude that the Raytheon's seekers are accurate relative to other modern seekers.
Remember that most of those missiles are intended for use against larger craft. They are heavy. That makes maneuvers against a fighter harder, and become a liability in close engagement. Like slinging 500 lb bombs in a fight. And each long range missile on a plane displaces a medium or short range missile that is more useful against fighters.
There is definitely no magic bullet missile though. It is all tradeoffs.

I really like this educational format, I always wished there was more stuff like this on youtube. Thanks for the quality content and info!
Maybe in the future would you consider talking about the history of RWR? I'd be curious to know how it works/how it came about
I respectfully second that request!
very informative content, perhaps a similar vid for the soviet/eastern munitions, where data is available...? or a comparison of west vs east.
AIM9 R27?
AIM120 R77?
etc.
A better comparison would be aim9 and r73 because the r73 is intended for close range launches, whereas the r27 is intended for medium ranges.
Ian McCollum : "Today on Forgotten Weapons we have Growling Sidewinder, he's going to introduce us to one of the favorite weapon systems for fighter pilots to hate on, the Aim Seven Radar guided missile."
GS "Thanks for having me Ian. The Aim Seven Sparrow, shared none of the pin point accuracy of that little feathered hunter we see in the wild, the aerial acrobat it was named after, plucking insects out of the air with stunning precision... this thing is more like a near sighted seagull that notices nothing smaller than a garbage barge... illuminated by a search light. Let's examine why for a moment..."
More videos like this please! I love the little educational/ historical backstories you occasionally put out here for us.
Quite different than your usual style of video, but I liked it. Very well organized and put together. Good information that we can probably see put to use in future videos. Nice job, GS.
Great video growling you should really do it more of these you have an endless catalog of aircraft and weapons to choose from !
Can't wait for the next one it's a great change of pace just like how the ground videos were not sure if many others would agree but I liked it!
That video of the F16 landing gear doors with Sparrows was super neat
I know right never knew about that mounting
GS, man absolutely love this style of video. You have a different perspective to other TH-camrs who do military info channels since you get to use a lot of the equipment and are intimately familiar with the shortfalls and benefits of each! Would LOVE to see more videos like this on other weapons (AIM-9, 7, 54, etc…)
Excellent explanation @GS. These mini documentaries are packed with information and well produced.
thank you very much much appreciated.
Nice job on the mini-documentary! I would definitely like to see more like this.
7:57 Oops! Your final statement is opposite to the entirety of the rest of the video. I heard it as "It can hardly be argued that the AMRAAM is one of the world's best air-to-air missiles." I think you meant to say that one cannot argue AGAINST the proposition that the AMRAAM is one of the world's best air-to-air missiles. Perhaps it should have been, "It can't be disputed that the AMRAAM . . . ." or "It can hardly be disputed that . . . ." Great video!
I love this new way your videos are! I like how it’s very informative and a bunch of videos and pictures to watch. You are very good at making videos like this as I was paying attention the whole time 😂
i really love your diversity of videos man. especially the dogfight and multicrew ones. but i didn't know i'd love your educational videos about military aviation and weaponry. big fan of your DCS radar tutorials btw.
thank you man, I really appreciate your support. Much Love.
I really like these short video essays. keep up the good work.
I love this style of educational video. It does well on its own, or as an intro to an engagement. Thanks for the awesome content!
Love these documentary-type videos!! Great stuff, would love more.
Love the vids man, keep up the great work
They have the AIM-260 and the Peregrine missile coming soon
Awesome - would love to see more of these vids. Nice work 💪
Your Videos are amazing. Been following you for a year and your stuff just keeps getting better!! Keep it up!
I love these kinds of videos. Your content has come so far my dude!
This is such a cool concept! When watching DCS content, it can be kind of overwhelming all the different weapon info. Thanks for the good info!
I love videos like this, you executed it perfectly! Keep it up!
Awesome channel. Love the videos and how you explain things keep it up and keep up the warthog videos!!
Very well organized and put together.
Loved this video buddy. Keep them coming.
Awesome video! Very informative! Would love to see more videos like this :)
Definitely like the informational videos, this was cool to learn about for sure!
i like how you have such varied content. i prefer the dcs and other flight sim but videos like this are really top notch and i hope you continue to make this type of content
I LOVE videos like this man, keep it up!
Great video! Love these!
More of these videos GS! Love it!
for me, Meteor remains the better existing Fox-3 missile
Fantastic video, man! Can you do more history videos like this? Specifically on the F 16 😎
I don't know--the MDBA _Meteor_ has to potential to be even better due to its enormous range (more than twice that of AMRAAM).
That's not taking AIM-120D into consideration with a range of 90 miles and certainly not The AIM-260 JATM with an obviously classified range however it's been quoted to have a range TWICE as much as The AIM-120D lol which true range is also classified ;)
The *stated* range might be twice that of the AMRAAM, but the numbers we civilians see are totally inaccurate and meaningless.
@@DefinitelyNotEmma the stated IOC date is 2022, the Air Force could just be secretive about it for all we know
The best thing with the meteor is not the range. It's its ramjet propulsion that makes its flight energy profile totally different from a traditional missile.
It has more maneuverability even during it's final flight phase thanks to it's capacity to keep burning propellant continuously.
@@ZratP exactly, it’s not about range but how lethal it is at different ranges. It’s no point going a long range if you can’t hit anything. Ramjet stay’s lethal.
Just wanted to say I enjoy ur channel and thanks for making these videos!
Damn I like these types of videos. You explain fighter jet tech really well with your own background knowledge
While the AIM-120 series is an excellent platform it realistically does not hold up to the likes of the Meteor or perhaps even the PL-15, the DOD and the U.S military are acutely aware of this and are attempting to alleviate this with the development of the AIM-260 JATM, what little we know of that program (relatively), it appears to be the next gold standard in long range ARH missile technology.
So the meteor and PL-15 have been used in air combat? Nope. Speculation does no determine who is better.
@@manofchaitea6904 So the F-22 and F-35 aren't better than an F-15C and F-16?
Because the first two have never seen combat, the older two have 😉
@@johannafischer8915 except the F22 and F35 have? They're all great platforms.
If we look at Desert Storm, we can surmise that a true full air battle with fourth gen fighters still requires visual identification or clear awacs id to choose to engage enemies with fox-3 missiles. The AMRAAM fits that envelope so perfectly. Long range seems to be a full WW3 idea.
@@FancyNoodlez when? Against air opponents?
Damn love this kind of video from you. Honestly your voice has some soothing quality to it, optimal especially when doing a short documentary about things that go pssssshhh BOOOM
I really like these informational format videos.
More videos like this! Love it!!! Thank you!!
These history videos are great. Really cool stuff
Amazing video, pls do more in this style.
Excellent vid as usual; thanks.
Very nice review. Well done, Sir! Keep up creating those awesome fun videos.
Awesome breakdown! Thanks
Top notch this doc format, would be awesome if you research about the other A/A missiles and other subjects of air combat.
so close to 400k... keep it up!
Amazing vid can't wait to see another one keep it up
Great video. I remember an old sceen were you flew the FA18 against a Tomcat with Phoenix. Scary as h.
liked that video a lot! i would not mind more videos of this type from you !
Cool video. Like the change up
Really good video !!! I loved it
Fantastic informative piece sir thanks I learned a lot 😀 you should make more of them respect 🙏 👍
I'd love to see a video like this about the Meteor.
That was a well put-together little mini documentary and I definitely didn't burst my sides when you said ass ram.
those sparrows on the F-16s gear doors are awesome lol
Thank you, Professor Sidewinder!
I think this just became a channel about air combat, and I'm here for it
Videos like this remind me of growing up in the 90s watching Weekday Wings (only...on the Discovery channel--RIP Discovery ;( ). Awesome stuff.
Love these nuggets of knowledge style videos...
Oh, make more memes for instagram please . The last few ones (especially the mig 29 and multiple eurofighter one) were absolute gem..
Absolutely loved this new type of video from you. Absolutely do more, please lol. Look up dark skies or dark seas channel, this video you did is almost the same format as them and I'm sure you could get some ideas from them. Hope to see more like this from you about anything planes or missiles
excellent video, I love these "explain one interesting thing in enough detail, but not in a 35 minute video" type of clips. moar!
Love the info.
More videos like this one plz... Loved it
I really like those informative video, I don't think there is any youtuber that does it quite like you do.
I didn't know you did documentaries. Good show.
we need more videos like this! maybe once a month? at least? great lecture, man!
Very good history lesson! 👍🏾
Dig these kinds of vids. Gracias.
Thank you for pointing out the Canadair contribution to the Sparrow II program. Douglas and the USN gave up on the Sparrow II in 1955. RCAF chose the Sparrow II and Falcon missile for the Avro Arrow with the Astra fire control system. I believe Canadair kept this weapons system alive to be improved to the AAMRAM we have today.
More videos in this style please!
Looks so cool 👍
this was well put together my guy. well done. btw, can we get some player v player wwii dogfights?
Excellent info
More of this content PLEASE!!! There, I asked nicely.
Cool video, thanks for the history lesson.
I like these informative videos! Nice way to broaden your content! (By the way, those who did business with the Europeans got screwed when they received an ASRAAM.)
Please keep doing documentary style videos. They’re a real treat.
Wow, another format. And i like it
Awesome video, Growling🥹
Nice little documentary. As a European I'd enjoy a similar video about the Meteor :)
0:58 A fox 3 going active is called Pitbull or Husky depending if it goes active in Medium PRF or High PRF.
A very informative video, i have learned something new. Such a video, i wish about the R-77 and ist newest variants, but sadly there are not much public informations about those missiles. So i sugest the METEOR for an upcoming video.
you should do a 2022 setup tour, see what gear ur using in todays sim market, opinions on them to date and what not before the holidays and what not👀
Best air to air missile in the universe is my moms slipper
You mean 'Surface to Surface', bro😂🤣🤣
As surprise for me I'm one of the loaders on the F22 video, good work all true.
6:11 Subtitles: "ass Ram" XD
I absolutely love the original content please keep it coming. I like it more than the dcs videos
As Usual . . Awesome information. . MAny thanks. . 🚀
Very important information by GS I really like this video great job
Good content. Well done.
Growling Sidewinder, this certainly is an informative and entertaining video💯. Also, I have to share that I can't help but imagine how contractors pitched the ASRAAM to the military. It probably went something like "The ASRAAM...for when you have a h*** ** for the bandit, it's the ideal choice." 😎😆
More of this, please.
Please do these type of videos again, it was awesome
mentions the gripen but not the rafale, what a chad move
