Hello Growling sidewinder, can you do the dogfight between F22 Raptor VS Modernization version MIG 29K Fulcrum with split throttle on it that was shown on the video of MIG 29 VS F/A 18 in your channel.

[@adamjaquay4279]

My son served in Iraq during the height of hostilities. He said he witnessed several A-10 gun runs. He said the BRRRRRRRRP sound of the gun when close by was distinctive and they could feel the 30mm rounds hitting the ground from 100 meters away. Said he and his buddies( i know several) owe their lives to that plane.

[@SuperCrysiscore]

@@adamjaquay4279 But il guess it was also realy disturbing sight for them, seeing whats left of the guys getting hit by those rounds.

[@chroma_aus]

I think it'd be cool to see a "Battle of the Trainers" type thing, with the MB-339 against L-39 and C-101. Maybe something like the F-5 thrown in just for comparison.

4:20 → they are actually a couple of DEFA 30 mm cannons 7:10 → the last modernized version, the MB-339CD, is Fox-2 capable

[@spamsauzzage913]

are the large ventral fins not a sign that aircraft depicted in DCS is an MB-339CD? or are there other signs saying it isnt?

[@jack18457]

​@@spamsauzzage913 the ventral fins are common for all MB-339 variants; the most prominent visual feature of the MB-339CD is its longer and pointy nose, which houses the taxi light, while MB-339A or the MLU update mount the taxi light on the nose gear strut. The CDs also have a couple of fairing on the vertical stabilizer for RWR antennas Other few details to differentiate all MB-339 variants: - VOR antennas → MB-339A have them almost at the top of the vertical stabilizer, while MLU and CD have them in a lower position; - TACAN/IFF antennas → MB-339A have a small TACAN antenna just aft the canopy, while MLU and CD had this antenna moved futher back and its place is taken by a GPS antenna.

[@spamsauzzage913]

[@zanderlabuschagne2368]

MB-326KC can do Fox 2 and has integrated 2x DEFA 553 30mm, with the canons integrated it can still carry additional 6x Mk81 or 4x Mk82 or 6x rocket pods. Hopefully we will get it one day.

[@simonallen4791]

Not before the Gina or my Zipper please:)

[@kristinawhorey3837]

The cannons are slipper pods on each wing for the MB339. It becomes absolute fun when one side jams and the recoil from the working side would yaw the aircraft uncontrollably

[@JessidGallardo]

You should do the US vs Russia thing again but with the rule that you can't choose the same jet twice so it's more interesting. Do like 5 or 6 rounds so you can have different engagements. Also make it bandit unknown so you have to choose your jet carefully.

That is one hell of a a10 pilot holy shat....and you keeping him close during round 4 is just as impressive....like super amazing stuff

[@ivandellavalle5919]

"On May 21, 1982, on the beaches of San Carlos, in the strait that divides Isla Soledad from Gran Malvina, the British Task Force carried out Operation Sutton, which consisted of the massive landing of 5,500 troops supported by fourteen ships, helicopters and fighter jets. At 10:30 a.m., the smoothly running operation is discovered from the air. A speedy Argentine Aermacchi 339 piloted by naval aviator Owen Crippa - sent on an armed reconnaissance mission - comes face to face with the invasion force. The story is well known: Crippa discovers a British helicopter that is nearby performing a suicidal task, attracting Exocet missiles towards his machine, and decides to attack it. The Argentine pilot, flying low to avoid detection by enemy radars, ascends to shoot at the helicopter hovering above him. As he gains height and passes a hill, he comes across an imposing image: he manages to see, in all its splendor, the enemy deployment in full landing operation. He abandons the attack on the helicopter and dives alone, with no other backup than his skill as a pilot. He picks a target, a Type 22 frigate which turns out to be HMS Argonaut. It opens fire with its 30 mm cannons, a weapon similar to those carried by the Sea Harriers. After spraying the ship with his shots, he fires eight 75mm Zuni rockets into a salvo against the structure of the frigate. Crippa wishes to deal a heavy blow to the command bridge, antennas, radars and knock her out. Some rockets achieve their mission, the ship is damaged and three crew members are injured in various ways" Amazing content! Love this channel!

[@artblakey4159]

You're a dog fighter not a flight demo site, but it would be nice to see a narrated take off and landing now and then. Also if you mentioned what you're doing with the throttle and why during the dog fights, that would be cool too.

[@clairecelestin8437]

Huge love to GS, but I have noticed that he tends to bounce the plane on touchdown because he doesn't bleed enough energy during the roundout.

The '115' (from the plate number 1-A-115) was on a recon mission alone, lead plane got problems to start, found an helicopter, when aiming at it, the pilot spot a fragate behaind, change target and shoot 30mm cannons and Zuni rockets on it. hms argonaut damaged if i remenber right. The pilot was lt. Owen Crippa, naval aviator.

[@Paul_Sergeyev]

Attempt 6! Could you please show us ground strafes with different weapon setups from ground perspective? We all know how A10 Brrrt sounds from the ground and looks on target, some even know that for Viper's 20mm, but I really wonder how a 37 mm, 6 x 50 cal., 23 mm MiG-21 and 30 mm MiG-29 long strafes would look and sound on target! Also, could you please bring out the flying lol machine I-16 against the F-22?

[@Crackzilla89]

Very interesting. Really wanna see this thing go up against other trainers, like the C101, L39, and F-5 (as a stand in for the t-38)

[@tobiasmeyer2434]

As a matter of fact, in the Falklands war (21 of May 1982) a dude named Lt. Owen Crippa from the argentinian airforce hit a ship with guns and rockets with one of those, wounding 3 brits on the bridge and knocking out the radar. He flew right past a couple of ships, so close that they could not shoot him because of the risk of FF, he even dodged a few missiles (Seacats aparently) that day in that machine and made it back home. Pretty ballsy!

[@tsukemono1]

Love these ground attack vs ground attack vids. It’s like the modern jet version of WW2 dogfights. Great vid as usual.

[@Parabueto]

I'm really looking forwards to the 339. I fly it a lot in flight simulator and it looks like the 339 is getting some new high drag bombs which might be really fun to use. I've gotten into more cold war style flying but I find actually hitting anything is a challenge. Hopefully with loads of high drag bombs I might be able to reliably hit at least one thing per sortie! I'd personally warn against it being a "Beginner" module though. It's going to be a very good module to learn how to fly "Properly" with, using radio navigation instruments, no fly by wire or ballistics computers etc. But in DCS I'd worry it is a bit too limited to have enough fun that someone sticks with DCS. Something a bit more complicated but also makes the simple things easy, like the F18, F16 or even the harrier, would be a better first module choice imo. They give a really good feel for what DCS is capable of and if you're not good at flying or combat you can still get that "Top Gun feeling" with only a minimal amount of effort. But, once you've had a play with those and realise you're flying a computer and want something a bit more visceral where you have to work a lot harder to blow stuff up and you get satisfaction in that rather than what can end up being a more sterile experience in the 4th gen jets, that's where this jet is really going to shine I think. I hope it ends up on the Cold War server because it'll make for a fun little light strike fighter.

[@Flying-Pictures]

You make that information so interesting. Keep up the great work.

[@nathaniellazo5912]

Last 2 dogfights were so dam epic!! The constant offensive and defensive switching, guns blazing, loss of visual, ALL OF IT!!

[@ignaciofrozar9692]

I have to add more information to your historic reference. This plane was used to discover the British float and the attack the HMS Argonaut. The pilot was Owen Crippa, he flew between the ships.

[@Gozar111]

Also used in South Africa in a single seater ground attack variant. Called an Impala. Double seaters were used for trainers.

[@nathanbarnes4740]

Looks like it has good handling aspects at low speed, my only critique would be the low cyclic rate of the guns. You've got the coolest job in the world dude.

I was curious so I googled it. The MB-339 has a pair 30mm gun pods. That will definitely take a wing off of anything.

I remember an image from desert storm where an a10 had half its wing and one engine blown off, and somehow managed to limp back to an airbase. Incredible plane. The Aermacchi looks like a fun plane to fly too.
