I am fascinated by the Soviet design philosophy of the Mig-23. Soviet doctrine in the 1980's was one firing pass of two R-23 at BVR @ about Mach 1.2. With the F-16 at its corner speed of about 440 knots, this was supposed to give the R-23 the range advantage over the AIM-7F and force the F-16 defensive. The Mig-23 would then unload the nose and blow through the merge. The Floggers weren't supposed to turn until they had 15 nm separation. Supposedly, the F-16 couldn't turn around fast enough for the Sparrow to catch the Flogger with a 300+ knot speed advantage. If the F-16 or F-16 accelerated to Mach 1.2 and played chicken BVR, the Soviets considered trading one for one with a F-15 or F-16 a good trade since the Flogger was cheaper and more plentiful. When the Iraqi's and Syrian's took heavy losses in the 1980's the Soviet mumbled something in Russian that sounded like, "If you don't use it correctly, I can't guarantee good results."

@@ryanmuir6929 wow that’s interesting info I enjoyed reading that. The MiG 23 was not a dog fighter was not a turn radius type design. It was fast and was a hit and run type jet similar to the mig21. But the doctrine is so Soviet to outnumber your opponent with equipment and a 1/1 trade off is a interesting strategy cause they can replace a 23 easier and faster than a F16. Just like t34’s in WW2 to German panthers.... a numbers game. We didn’t get to see Soviet pilots dogfighting the MiG 23 tho with the more advance floggers too the ML... where as the iraqis and other Arab buyers got a more stripped down export version of the flogger with less skilled pilots.

I read a bunch about the Flogger. The only thing it was really good at was high-speed acceleration. So they would try to come into the fight at above Mach 1 and extend away at an even higher speed. It could get close to top speed with the wings at 45 degrees, so they would generally keep them there in a fight. The East Germans liked to use extremely large radius, high altitude loops that a lot of aircraft could not follow, perhaps not even an F-16. It was considered dead meat in any kind of turning fight.

3:40 Not only training, they've received the "monkey" versions of the plane. The -23MS they've got was really downgraded and even had avionics and radar from the MiG-21, for example no BVR capability, etc. I am pretty sure the -23 MLD/MLA can out turn the F-5. 16,7/14 (ML Data, MLA and MLD would be even better) vs 16/9° instant/sustained turn rate. Also, circle fighting the -23 was not what it was supposed to do...read the Red Eagles book, even the F-15 drivers were in for a surprise when going against the 4477th pilots and the -23!

The MLD was a very substantial upgrade over the M. Much better radar, with better shootdown capability, terrain scanning radar for night navigation, much better avionics, a more powerful engine with a longer service life, a lighter and stronger chassis, strengthened variawing joint, extended wing angles, helmet mounted HUD, the IRST got added back in, and it was compatible with basically all top of the line minitions the USSR had at the time. It probably elevated the very lackluster original to parity with the tomcat.

Unintentionally historical matchup. After Vietnam the North Vietnamese supplied the Soviets with a captured F-5 (It MIGHT have been an F-5A or F-5C, but I read it was the -5E Tiger II) for use to evaluate. What Soviet test pilots found was that the little Northrop fighter was quite comparable to the MiG-21 in many aspects (The two have strengths and weaknesses which I feel cancel one another out), and found that the early MiG-23's were not able to fight on even foot with the smaller American jet. You could argue the MiG-23 was more intended to clash against fighters like the F-4, but fighting against the F-5 helped the Soviets refine the dogfighting ability of the Flogger later down the line. Overall the Soviets also really liked what Northrop brought to the table; light, agile, simple, rugged, very much an ironically Soviet-esque design philosophy.

Every time I see a Tiger II, I remember my childhood in Tabriz, NW Iran, during the bloody war vs. Iraq (1980-1988) . Tabriz - 2nd Tactical Air Base (TAB-2) was the largest nest of iranian Tigers. 24/7 at least 2 Tigers were flying over Tabriz and I was very impressed by them. Of course, Tabriz was an important target for the iraqi MiGs. Air raid sirens and AA-Guns' sounds are very horrific, and at the end several explosions in the city, most of them from civil areas.

Challenge: Soviet doctrine in 1980's was one firing pass with a salvo of two R-23 @ 750 knots. Supposedly, even the F-16 couldn't do a Bat-Turn fast enough to catch the Mig-23 with a Sparrow in the tail, since the Flogger had a 200 knot advantage. The Flogger should not turn until he has 15 NM separation. Probably different with a AIM-120C?

@Max Povetkin It is relatively well documented, the Pilot was Tom Attridge. Also, a fighter jet will outrun its own bullets, eventually. Bullets slow down to terminal velocity, eventually, while a jet can keep its speed up. The only 'difficulty' is to time a descent profile, so that the trajectories intersect.

I appreciate that you are trying to highlight the differences between the aircraft and that is important for a layman to understand what is being done. I think your videos showing mission oriented missions is more important. When a plane has a weakness or a strength the pilots are going to exploit that when they have a chance when operating in a mission scenario. But sometimes, as you highlighted in fighting random aircraft, you’re stuck with the mission and you get a pooch that you just have to screw to achieve the goal. For instance, two F-4 Wild Weasels getting jumped by MiG-29’s or when the EF-111 got jumped and wound up with a maneuver kill. Something like that is important, too, where extraordinary pilots bleed their aircraft white for all the advantage they can squeeze from the airframe to stay alive.

Also, in today's world is there a country that excels in tactics and dogfighting above all others? I know that Americans had a problem in Vietnam with dogfighting Migs until the USA started focusing more on tactics. Love the channel, All the best, Dana Mac.

Would like to see some 2v1 pvp dogfights and such with the out numbered aircraft being technically superior. Just to see a change in the dynamic. As well as 2v2 dogfights and team tactics in those situations.

It seems so crazy that the inherent combat parameters of your engagement, evasion and fight hold you directly over a populated area even in the midst of all that surrounding barren desert; its a freakin simulation but STILL, I'm anxiously fretting that your arial fight would migrate out of civilian harm's way.

I have been practicing every day and playing a lot in the F-18C Hornet. Now I know how to cold start, take off and of course land. I have been dogfighting too but only with AI’s. They are not a danger to me so I’m looking forward to play online! Loving the game!

Thanks Growling Sidewinder. Love the vids and TacViews. Can you do an F-4 vs Mig-23? I guess the mig was designed with the F-4 in mind.

the technical specs on the F-14, F-5,F-4, and MIG-23 might explain the war record. The MIG is definitely a hit and run machine. Good max speed, decent engine power, but wing loading and thrust to weight favor the American-made machines. It doesn't help the MIG's case that I'm sure the F-14s could see them way before they saw the F-14s.

Gas deflector. It redirects the gas from the guns upwards so it is not inhaled by the engines which could cause a flameout.

Speaking of not using the guns over a populated area: I live in Denmark and a few hundred meters from my childhood home there lie a street where several of the houses dating back from the early 1900's have bullet holes from a duel between German and British planes during WW2. At the time of that aerial duel the area wasn't as build up as it is today but still there is danger to the civilian population during low altitude fights. The street in question: It is called 'Langgade' and is oriented N to S and I believe that the houses hit lie in the upper northern half: 57 20' 29"N; 9 55' 31"E I can't remember if any civilian were hit or not.

Pre 1979 Iran, Iranian pilots were trained in the USA. For F5, F4, and F14 and I'm not 100% sure but I think Cobra pilots also were trained in the USA. The combination of superior American-made beasts over Soviet-made and excellent training program of Americans and hard work of Iranian pilots changed the course of the war. Iraq had a large number of tanks and armored vehicles and more aircraft, But Cobras and Phantoms destroyed ground targets while Tomcat and Tiger gave absolute air superiority to Iran. F14 ace is even an Iranian pilot. Jalil Zandi who have shot down four MiG-23s, two Su-22s, two MiG-21s, and three Mirage F1s with a total of 11 kills.
