Love the info detailing the specs about the aircraft. You did with the F22 v the F35. Keep it up

[@Bad_Wolf_Media]

I'm not sure if the DCS designers have tweaked things, but I recall your F-22 SEAD video where you obliterated an enemy airfield and planes taking off and the SAM sites didn't even get a sniff on the Raptor, not even when the bay doors were open. Forgetting real-world specs, even in DCS I find it tough to believe that a smaller airborne radar like the Foxhound would carry would outperform the larger SAM systems in defeating the stealth. That's why I think they might have tinkered with the -22 data to make it slightly less OP.

[@doncalypso]

Next one is to see how the F-35 would fare against the MiG-31...

[@unclevampy]

It has been my understanding throughout history the US typically understates its capabilities, and its adversaries tend to overstate theirs. Of course, one should always take the claims as a potential truth because underestimating the enemy would be fatal.

The brief history of the Foxbat was a really nice touch that goes a long way. I heard the Foxbat has poor maneuverability bc they used plain old steel wings rather than aluminum alloy.

[@bojned]

Foxbat (Mig-25) was incredibly heavy. Two cruise missile turbojets, slapped on the big slab of steel (to handle the heat of Mach 3 flight). Of course it does not handle well. Foxhound (Mig-31), although similar, has more efficient turbofans, better radar and avionics. But she is still fat and big.

[@nunyabiz5151]

Back in my military days, we used to track the Foxbats at mach 3+ on multiple occasions as they flew over the Mediterranean and North Atlantic oceans. Back then, Sweden would allow Russian overflights of their airspace. Once a contact was just past Sweden and punched to 2.5+ mach, we knew for sure it was a Foxbat. I'm certain they required engine changes when they RTB'd. Foxbat drivers liked to show off from time to time.

[@ferdeboergd256]

I don't know if it's a real life tactic, but in modern submarine simulation there is the tactic "reconnaissance by torpedo". If you know there's an enemy sub but can't detect it, you launch a torpedo hoping it, at least, makes the enemy nervous an reveals their position. Seems that's what the Mig did in the second round.

[@ferdeboergd256]

@Omar Khurshid it is very risky indeed and almost surely reveals you are there. It's only used when you know the enemy is there and you believe they have already detected you. So firing the torpedo doesn't really make things much worse

[@T800123]

@John Doe "recon by fire" is absolutely what is used in the US Army. Can't speak for other branches, but I'm sure the Marines and Air Force use the same term. I wouldn't be surprised to learn that the Navy says the same, but submarines use a different term. The sub branch is pretty dissimilar from the rest of the Navy from what I've heard, and also torpedoes are somewhat uniquely equipped for the task. They have wires attached to them and can be controlled by the sub and given different orders until the wire snaps/is disconnected, so it would make sense to me that it would be uniquely suitied for just firing off and either pretending you have a target, or just sending it into the general area, knowing that the torpedoes own SONAR will pick them up and then can be commanded to attack that target.

[@HamuraiC-137]

@ems0428depends what you are doing. The ANA would “recon by fire” thus alerting tali’s to the assault. They would bug out and the ANA didn’t have to get into a gun fight. Very frustrating.

[@georgechristian3902]

Trust me. No sub captain is going to shoot a torpedo just to find out if there is an enemy sub in the area. Because it would tell the enemy exactly where their boat is. And give the enemy sub a huge advantage because unless they were lucky enough to shoot in the direction of the enemy sub, forcing it to move, it isn't going to move. If it's close enough the American submarine wouldn't even know it was there until the enemy fired on it from close range. Which is about the biggest "oh shit" situation in submarine warfare. And if they are to far off for a good shot. They know exactly where the other boat is and can quietly sneak up on it. The last thing a submarine wants to do is make noise.

Missiles with better range, but has no chance in a closer encounter with the f-22

[@fubaralakbar6800]

@@cineva-wb1pk In a close encounter, yes. But that's exactly my point. It's like the Bismark fighting an Arleigh Burke--I mean sure, the Bismark has enough firepower to vaporize the Burke in one go--if not for the fact that you could smash the Bizzie with cruise missiles before she even knew you were there. You could make the same argument for an F-14 going BVR with an F-22. Ah, but the F-22 is able to nullify the MiG-31s advantage by using stealth and good maneuverability to dodge the missile storm and get in close, to an environment where it is vastly superior. It would be like giving the Bizzie modern stealth and sensors, but leaving her weapons the same. Now she would have a pretty good fighting chance against a modern ship. That's basically what the F-22 did here, and that, combined with the fact that GS is a great pilot, is what gave the F-22 the victory.

[@heatblast876]

Remember stealth is not always invisible on radar it will always gonna detect from a close range, by using strong radar/low frequency radar which make it easier to detect the stealth aircraft, but mostly it will detect on a close range. As you can see in the fight between F22 and Mig 31, first of all people thinks that the F22 raptor will not gonna detect on the Mig 31 radar and as it is an stealth aircraft which make it difficult to detect on radar and since the people thinks the F22 will gonna launch the missile from a long to medium range and make a formation towards Mig 31 and down shot that it, as the RCS of mig 31 which is huge around 15m2 compared to F22 RCS around 0.0001m2. But surprisingly the Mig 31 able to detect the F22 from a medium to close range quickly on radar compare to other 4 gen aircraft. Because it has strong radar which not an AESA radar, but a PESA radar but with greater power aspects on Mig 31 radar (backstop: radar name) compare to other aircraft PESA radar. Mig 31 able to see the F22 at the range of under 60 to 40 miles but can't get a lock, which is surprisingly, that makes it superior to the Mig 31 which is actually a true interceptor aircraft, but when you see the fight between such as the F22 against the 6 group of Euro fighter typhoon, the Euro fighter typhoon has advance AESA CAPTOR radar, but 6 of them can't even see at this range, while the 1 Mig 31 PESA backstop radar able to see in this range. Which means that the Mig 31 is having one of the strongest PESA radar of all the aircraft that can even challenge today modern to mid modern AESA radar. Which is totally an surprisingly standard. Even that Mig 31 able to launch the R37M missile maybe at the range of under 50 to 45 miles towards the F22, as you can see in the video the R37M was tracking perfectly towards the F22 target, but it miss in few meters inches, the missile guidance was good and it was tracking very well in both of the matches, but it miss few inches why because the F22 has superior in stealth features and EW suite that can able to jam the incoming missile or with the superior in stealth, because the missile knows where it is heading towards the target but can't get it as the F22 was superior in stealth and good EW suite that able to dodge the missile easily with an few inches. But if Mig 31 was having an medium range infrared missile with electric optical inertial guidance such as R 27ET which has range of about 60 to 80 miles, which finds the heat signature of the stealth aircraft, The R 27ET is the only long range infrared missile that has the range of about 60 to 80 miles, then the R 27ET would have been, bring a worst situation towards the F22, because stealth cannot hide the heat signature at all, but it can be minimize the heat signature by using limited heat process such as 5 gen engine and stealth capabilities but still it cannot hide the heat signature fully. And another thing the infrared missile doesn't show the RWR and MWR on radar, because it is not an radar guidance at all.

[@tippership]

Really surprised at the Foxhound's gameplan here- The F-22's difficulty with a Foxbat or Foxhound- is while they're lobbing missiles- when they get closer- they know things are gonna get tough, so they should go back some distance to the side, and make use of their Mach 2.8 - Mach 3 speed- so AMRAAMS can't realistically hit them at all. Gotta do running passes at the F-22 - AMRAAMS won't have an easy time with a Mach 3 target ... And the F 22 attempting to chase a foxhound or foxbat ...well, i suppose it's a sneaky chase - but it'd be difficult and he could retreat to his S-300 area. And if that S--300's radar is a different wavelength, that's a problem.... Wish we'd see one of these rare Mach 3 aircraft use that speed in a dogfight. Yes, even though for some of them the engines are gonna take a beating- but it's what ensures your invincibility Plus you're fighting a Raptor and your super powerful radar might find him occasionally- but you can't expect him to never be offensive

[@popiwatv]

You can't dogfight at mach 3 🤣 your turn radius would be the size of Texas

So the mig 31 can’t dog fight for anything.. it’s only chance at survival period, is to stay beyond visual range.. and it goes absolutely no deeper than that (it’s just that simple)

[@Justanotherconsumer]

@@comradeeverclear4063 would have to be very clever to make use of straight line speed, as the MiG can’t turn very quickly while the F-22 can. Against the F-35, which is substantially slower, the MiG has more of a “launch and leave” option, but the chance of maintaining a lock while doing that seems very low indeed.

Poor old Bill shouldn't have pulled into the driveway when he did. We're gonna miss him!!😛😛

Missile range hampers the F-22. Nice video.

[@veritasardens6547]

Nice to know that the F-22 can kick the Mig-31's rear.

[@Hawqer]

DCS' Scenery looks like one of those imac wallpapers.

[@wallacegrommet9343]

These high altitude MiGs were used effectively by loitering at a sufficient distance and altitude to be essentially undetectable.

[@oldieman730]

F-35A and Mig-31 long range duel would be an interesting video too.

[@baileymartin2092]

Love the plane descriptions and possible specs

[@weaponeer]

I would like to hear the other pilot and you talk about the engagement

[@Jay-O_Carlow]

GS Try do more history & Information about the jets when you do vids like this i know not all the time but this makes ur channel NO1 DCS Channel... Thanks Man

Butt pucker moment at 14:50... dang that was super close.

[@MichaelC2423]

Good Fight! That near miss was fantastic, I nearly choked laughing.👏👏👏

[@twinters8]

Very spicy missile notches in this one, looked really cool.

[@ryansaltzgiver3651]

Time for an F-35 vs the Mig-31 🙃

[@BroPatOC]

I'd like to see a Eurofighter or something with meteors vs the Mig 31.

[@ExtremeUnction1988]

14:31 the pucker factor!!

[@d4ll4sdr4gon2]

Oh..I see said the Blind Man... LOVE IT!!

[@manofchaitea6904]

American missiles are a huge limiting factor to air domination at very long ranges.

[@kangtheconqueror8359]

Exactly..That needs to change..

[@FPS.Lancer]

Thia video has satisfaction moments better than all the satisfaction channels on YT

[@ShabbirAnsary]

How about adding a Su-35 to makeup for Mig-31's shortcomings...could be very interesting in my opinion

[@zacsawesomeworld2767]

You should do one of these videos again but from the MiGs perspective.

[@pahtar7189]

It's amazing that the MiG-31 could detect, let alone lock, the F-22 before the Raptor could track that behemoth.

[@Տիգրան-ժ1է]

The MiG-31 radar works at 400 km, there is nothing to be surprised at.
