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.

You did the Me 262 vs biplane, why not A-10 vs biplane?

[@adamcumley3950]

Not the Aliens in Canada though

[@SHARPSPEED]

The Raptor would've looked inconceivable back then. These guys basically got snuffed out by some UFOs.

[@atomf9143]

Literally the only possible comparable aircraft of the day was the Me-262, and even that looks radically different than the Raptor.

[@snizami]

As impressive as airpower is, the absolute supernatural horror a single modern naval destroyer would cause in WW2 is far more dramatic. Even on the ground, a single modern MBT, especially at night time, would leave the opponent absolutely filled with terror, not knowing who or what is picking them apart with such ease. This seems surprisingly tame by comparison because at least the bomber crews would have some understanding of the fancy jets zooming past them, the rockets blowing up next to them, and the cannon fire shredding them apart.

[@mattt525]

​@@snizamiI have never thought about that actually..... like imagine 2 MBTs I don't think it matters what flavor either..... Abrams, Leopard, Challenger, or even t-90. Going up against a Panzer division in the middle of the night?! Talk about seal clubbing 😂

[@smuganimeface6247]

​@@mattt525Hell, even a T-62 with a modernization package would be immune to all in use anti tank weapons from the front and if it was plastered with ERA, any shaped charge from the sides as well.

[@Warmagon]

@@snizami Yeah, I think the massive radar arrays and VLS system dumping 80 missiles on some of the modern ships would be pretty outrageous. Nuclear subs that can match destroyers for speed and don't need to be at periscope depth to attack and have cruise missiles would be silly too. The F-22 ultimately needs to approach into visual ranges just like other fighters because it can't carry enough missiles to destroy those bomber raids, so it's limited in how WTF it can be. The stealth fighter that needs to enter eyeball range has already sacrificed a major strength - some of its main advantages don't actually matter in these fights. Of course, the problem with all this modern shit going back in time is always 'okay, we fired off a full load of ammunition, now what?'

[@nicolocaon1861]

you used 4 raptors when you really only needed 1 f15ex 😎😂

A missile truck against that formation? Fish in a barrel! At least an F-22 closing to gun range gives it a personal touch! 😅

[@bluecordterrainmanagement]

The Final Countdown was a great movie and portrays an improbable "what if" scenario, modern jet fighters against piston planes from WW2

[@Silverbllt]

Growlingsidewinder please do this!!

[@FrankDB61]

Beat me to it. I’ve always wondered what would have happened if the black hole hadn’t reappeared, and the Nimitz’s strike force continued on to intercept the Japanese December 7th force.

[@zephyrandboreas]

It was the reverse in reality when the Allied fighters first came across the ME-262.

[@murph3194]

I REQUESTED THIS!! Nice. Well I thought it would be hilarious to send an A-10 to WWII but a 5th Gen again these bombers will be dope. Let's go!!!!!

[@XAndrewMillerX]

I almost think the a-10 would make even quicker work

[@jasoncross6373]

I was just thinking the same thing, a solo A10 trucked up with as many missiles it'll carry against the same amount of bombers. Tail gunners would be a problem but it can take it :)

[@CabezaDeVaca22]

Thinking the same thing. Same scenario with a 4 ship of A-10s.

[@tykjpelk]

I've been asking for something similar, but with Eurofighters to simulate the Battle of Britain with time travel. Awesome that this happened.

[@cliffordclaussen2321]

​@@tykjpelk I like your idea better

[@bryanwalthall5483]

I suspect the first AAMRAM felt the German bomber was beneath it and tried to search for a jet.

[@macgyver186]

The first shot from the bombers point of view looking at the Raptors is kinda creepy. Imagine the guys in the bombers and what would go through their minds looking at a Raptor for the first time. Just a rush of "what the F is that..." Then chaos.

[@snakerstran9101]

What the fluganhigan.

[@nielstenbrink]

That’s exactly what American bomber pilots felt when encountering the ME 262 for the first time….

[@lukebable]

I imagine the first thing to go through their minds was a 20mm ?

[@JohnBell3]

The IR guided missile targets the engine. Hit the engine, plane doesn't fly. The radar guided missile is probably hitting the biggest radar target, the main fuselage. Not much to damage there.

[@pahtar7189]

Unless it hits a bomb, of course!

[@mungo7136]

AMRAAM uses continuous rod warhead that would cut fuselage in halves. Especially WW2 bomber's that is essentially hollow

[@mistert51]

[@jerseyshoredroneservices225]

Reminds me of "Splash the Zeros" and a Tomcat almost stalling into the ocean during the filming 😮

[@VagabondTexan]

I once chatted with a former B-17 pilot at the 8th Air Force museum in Savannah. He told me what it was like the first time whey say an ME-262. The quote was "What the hell was that?!"

[@deezynar]

The British don't recognize F-22s, they would be firing AAA at you as much as the German bombers. Even if some of the gunners realized that you were firing on the bombers, not all of them would. And that formation pass over the airfield, it's hard to know how they would have responded to that.

[@Regolith86]

1:37 I always forget just how small WWII payloads were. A single B-2 bomber can carry almost as much payload as all of those bombers (40,000-50,000 lbs). A single B-1 can carry 75,000 lbs.

[@SuperSabre157]

[@andrewfranson4756]

Since the WWII planes are built like tanks and the AMRAAMs target the fuselage and the AIM-9 targets the engines I think all sidewinders would be the proper loadout for that mission.

[@bash343]

[@DerkMiester]

[@CrocodileBullet]

The Raptors: something AH dreamed of back in 1940. The German Jetfighter ME262 was loo late, too little.

[@krismurphy7711]

"GOTT IN HIMMEL!!! WHAT ARE DOES THINGS!!! THEY ARE PLANES WITH NO ENGINES!!! RUN!!!!! RUN!!!!!!!"

[@2020Max1]

So here's the thing. I don't believe that modern day missiles would be as effective against WWII bombers as they would against modern day aircraft for a couple of reasons. The main reason is that modern day aircraft are packed with vital systems that are required for flight so a missile hit (or near hit) has a good chance of disabling the aircraft where as a bomber back then didn't have sophisticated flight controls and avionics. And they are quite large and their vital systems are spread out over a larger area. Another thing to consider is that each missile is essentially not much more than a flack burst sending shrapnel into the bomber... when you consider that most bombers can survive dozens of hits by flack shells it makes sense that the missiles would have a similar effect. To address why it appeared as though the AIM-9's were doing better than the AMRAAMS this would make sense as well. AIM-120's being radar guided would hit center mass dumping most of their effect into the fuselage which would soak up much of the shrapnel, whereas the AIM-9's are heat seekers and would lock onto the engine exhaust and deliver the majority of their damage to the engines. Generating a much greater effect on the target.

[@thomasferguson2006]

MORE F22 STUFF HELL YEAH

[@ske00]

You should emulate "The Final Countdown", a 1980 science fiction film directed by Don Taylor. The movie follows the USS Nimitz, a modern nuclear-powered aircraft carrier, which encounters a mysterious storm that transports it back to December 6, 1941-the day before the attack on Pearl Harbor. Only this time, you stay and thwart the attack. :) P.S. I typed this all out and saw that several people already beat me to it. Still, this would be so cool.

[@lukesmith1003]

9:02 Poor homie never stood a chance😂 Tried to turn away and just got destroyed by a beam of death.

[@lonnyscott6231]

Try a f 15 ex with max payload. The reason I say that is because the planes can carry something like 10 - 12 missiles . And when you have something like 80 of them that means you have 800 to 1000 missiles.

[@shanelee4840]

Reality is, they would have NEVER even seen the raptors. All the bombers would have been taken out from miles away.

[@jonkinsley3815]

I was thinking about the same thing when I was watching your other bomber videos…lol😂

[@NomenClature-o8s]

My Dad was a navigator on a B-17 in late WWII. He remembered seeing the first ME262’s flying through the bomber group and how fast they were.

[@karelpgbr]

Not so crazy. This is the kind of hypothetical time-travel situation I can appreciate.

[@Bozothcow]

That closure problem you mentioned sometimes made itself felt in WW2. The rocket interceptor that the Germans (for some reason) built had the biggest issues, since they were so incredibly fast. Apparently they considered developing a light sensing camera that would automatically firing guns from the top of the plane when incoming light was decreased, so that a pilot could shoot down a bomber just by passing underneath it.

[@robertswan742]

The AMRAAMS didn't have anything substantial to hit such as a jet engine. They explode but the shrapnel just made holes in a fuselage. The Sidewinders went after the exhausts on the engines, so could do more noticeable damage.
