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.

Hey GS I would love to see a WW2 bandit unknown video! Maybe an f-16 vs mig-21 would be really cool too

[@imdoobie80]

Yup I agree that would be a fun fight.

[@Lee-sti8wrx]

I'm guessing you don't like the F-35? I've seen you in videos with it, but you're always in the other jet. Russian or Chinese even. Could You do a BVR with you in the F-35 versus the Felon? I think the F-35 is a better stealth jet and you shouldn't have any Patriot or S-300 or 400 sites. I think the F-35 has a better radar as well. Could we see?

[@Stant123]

I don't know why everyone says the fight should end in a fist fight or pistols. Reality is, if both pilots survived and were able to walk up to each other, they'd exchange chocolate and cigarettes or something before the one who's in enemy territory heads off into hiding while the other waits for a ride back to base. There is a certain amount of respect given to each other for what is essentially a draw and a desire to meet in the air again someday to settle who's the better pilot.

[@GrowlingSidewinder]

I like to imagine this is true, and I hope it is.

[@SlavaPunta]

​@@GrowlingSidewinder Look up Brown and Stigler. In short, a German ace (Stigler) escorted a nearly unflyable USAAF bomber to safety (flown by Brown). The two pilots reunited in the 80s and become close friends before both passing away in 2008.

[@ColetteHart]

I don't think even a B-17 would have been able to take that much damage from a 109 and keep flying on! That was a great fight!

[@Keckegenkai]

the b17 would just be a bigger target for the 30mm

[@Hen3349]

well it probably depends on the gunners on whether the plane even has the chance to get damaged but with the 30mm I dont think it would hold out for long especially while alone

[@TheRobeRanger]

Did you hear about the 109 that crashed into a B-17? The B-17 kept flying

[@localracer]

When I read comments like this before seeing the video, it’s time for popcorn

[@HarGowPilot]

The A-10 is roughly the same size of a B-25(about half of that of a B-17) but more armored.

That was pretty funny and the guys on the ground were very thankful😂 Anyway, great dogfight, as always. Best wishes from Germany FlyingFlugzeug (Loris)

Very well fought on both pilots! That was surprisingly difficult. Would love to see you do a video with the Su-25 in a ground attack role. I don't think I've ever seen you use it that way. Appreciate all your hard work!

[@birddt3]

There ought to be a mod where surviving pilots can go to pistols or trade rations.

[@Uncivildefiance]

Honestly the 109 should have every advantage in this fight. The prop gives it better acceleration and speed control at lower speeds, it's got a tighter turn than the A-10, and its a great energy fighter in the prop world. It's basically made for fights like this.

[@sometimesidreamaboutcheese]

True. Especially with flaps against A10. It should overturn A10 with no problem, just literally set power to minimum, turn of flaps to 3rd position or even to landing one. And it could hold at A10's tail forever. Even for that heavy ass like K4 wich was no match to his predcessor like G2/G4 in terms of turn-fights.

[@AbsoluteyAmerican]

He also merged differently i. The second fight. He dove down on the bf109 for the merge giving him a bug energy advantage where in the first fight they merged level. I noticed in a fee videos he wont merge level with the other plane but will do things to gain a slight advantage. Seems slightly unfair to expect a flat merge once but then you can merge how you want.

[@IronMan-xm3lg]

That was like a Mike Tyson vs Joe Foreman fight to of the most iconic flying machines getting a match. Love it man.

That yellow nose of 109 on your six, such a beautiful and elegant piece of engineering

[@abot4694]

That was so entertaining to watch, something about watching the A-10 tank so many rounds and refusing to fall out the sky made this episode more funny than usual🤣🤣🤣

[@satcom6]

Principal: lose sight, lose the fight. Plan A:Fight the fight you aircraft wants to fight. Plan B: Fight the fight your opponents plane doesn't want. Interesting dynamics, and as always GSW, this was a great VID that I enjoyed, keep doing what you do, as long as you can. Thank you.

[@satcom6]

Golf did a great job (id like to believe It was intentional) of moving the A-10 then exploiting the blind spot (belly of every aircraft that immediately comes to mind) so that he slipped into the blind spot with a speed and heading and (did the equivalent of) reverse (or reversing) the turn, in the blind spot the the 109. Well played, I really enjoyed (what I see as a tactic and ) a way of manipulating situational awareness.

[@Ankhobo]

I would have loved to see if the flare gun on the BF-109 would have been able to decoy a fox-2

[@behnamsaeedi]

When you are slower than 150 knots you HAVE to put out your flaps in A-10! it will not jam, and will not over speed. it will automatically retract. It would make the jet much more responsive.

Such a shame that there is not even a single WWII Japanese type in DCS. Imagine what a Nakajima Ki-84 Hayate (Frank), a Kawasaki Ki-100 Hien (Tony) or a Kawanishi N1K1-J Shiden or N1K2-J Shiden Kai (George) could do in a dogfight.

[@skyhorseprice6591]

Not too many people talk about this, but it is really a thing. There seems to be a growing push to take DCS to a more immersive WWII experience, but to do so there just have to be Japanese aircraft.

[@billybutcher357]

Great vídeo! I will add my request to the long list: a duel with the FW 190 A8, please!

[@supercomp65]

The mk 108 30mm mine shells were designed for maximum payload, holding more HE than a hand grenade, and the fuse had a slight delay so they would penetrate an aircraft's skin before detonating. Similar to having a firecracker go off in your hand. Open hand, you get burned, close your fist, and loose your hand. That's why it could remove the wings of a fighter with a single round. The Gau-8's depleted uranium rounds were designed to penetrate thick armor and on something as fragile and thin skinned as an aircraft, it's likely they wouldn't even get the incendiary effect that DU has when hitting something hard with exception of the engine block. If I knew I was to be only engaging unarmored targets, I'd run 100% HE in the A10
