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.

[@jeffscott3186]

I saw the marking under the cockpit before noticing the swiss markings on the wings. My thought was- "Oh, crash test dummy paint job. That seems fitting, fighting against an F-14 and all."

[@Lawraven]

Every time I see a video like this, of the F-5 Tiger, I can’t help but wonder how much better the F-5 Tigershark might have been. I wish there was a Tigershark mod in DCS so that fantasy could be explored.

[@690_5]

Dang! The Tomcat snatched victory out of the jaws of defeat. Nice battle.

[@DC-338]

This video just proves. "The quality of the box matters little. Success depends upon the man who sits in it." That GS got so many opportunities says a lot about both pilots.

[@ShadesShack]

Yes good job to GS for getting those opportunities, and good job Tomcat for not dying despite that many opportunities.

[@Raz.C]

See, THIS is what I'm talking about; There's no way that you should be able to win against the F-14 from your F-5, but you DO end up winning and it's because you're a ridiculously good pilot!! Own it, dude!

[@beetledesert8642]

The F-5 can out turn the F-14

[@hellcatdave1]

F-5 should easily beat a Tomcat in a turn fight.

[@sgt.grinch3299]

Round 1 was incredible. Round 3 was great too. It has been a long time since you caught a round with your teeth. Well done. Very entertaining.

[@dhones23]

Jester, watching from the ground as his pilot shoots GS in the face: "Dang, I guess I used the Yeet Seat too soon...again"

[@CoffeeMatt10]

Yeet seat 😂😂😂

[@TheFanatical1]

Always nice to see the greatest carrier capable aeroplane in the world take on the Tomcat.

[@jamesd4013]

Good fight....solid win for the Tomcat after his RIO punched! Hahahahaha....bet that's an awkward reunion after CSAR forces pick him up and get him back to the carrier

[@adb012]

I don't know if it exists in DCS, but try the F-20. A fantastic plane, basically a single engine F-5 with the performance F-16.

[@Mike_Romeo]

We dont have the F-20 :/

[@FusionAero]

Or an F-14 D, Hell, why not an F-23 so long as we're dreaming. A big problem is that the data for these should-have-beens is still kept under wraps to make it harder for the Ayatollas to level-up their museum pieces into modern, peer-level threats.

[@MrSinnerBOFH]

The closest thing to an F-20 is the JF-17

[@stinkyfungus]

@@MrSinnerBOFH I think a matured F20 (block upgrades similar to how the F16 has been handled since the late 70's) Would be somewhat superior as a dog fighter vs the Jeff. Bog stock late model F-5s are no slouch for a gen 3 platform in the knife fighting department provided the pilot is a dirty fighting SOB (that offset 2 circle was brilliant) ... so adding more wing, a digital flight control system and a much bigger engine would have only payed dividends.

[@ndx6779]

@@stinkyfungus The fighter you're looking for is called the F-16.

[@stillious]

If I've learned one thing from these videos, it's that if I see GS online in a cessna with a pistol...I'm running for my life.

[@flobp2381]

A-4 and F-5s, among others, were used in Aggressor Squadrons to train fighter pilots. In the right hands they're able put up a good fight against much more capable aircraft.

[@rippervtol9516]

If i remember correctly the F-5s and A-4s used were stripped down to more closely mach MIG flight profiles, where as the one is DCS is going to be stock weight

[@FallenPhoenix86]

@@rippervtol9516 Can't speak for the F-5's but the A-4's I believe also ran with non standard engine mods.
