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.

F-14 Tomcat vs F-15E Strike Eagle dogfight.

[@Nathan-vt1jz]

Great video! Does DCS have the J-20? It would be cool to see some pacific theatre missions against the J-20.

[@xNightOwlzZz]

I love the battlefield theme! The next time you do a longer mission with teammates it'd be cool to hear Thunder Run or Solomons Theme playing too

[@litgeek6391]

I feel like after all the F22 kills you've gotten where the enemy had no idea you were there, it was kind of your turn to taste that medicine

[@samuelzuleger5134]

After the last F/A-18 kill, I thought you had it in the bag. Then the the container ship you buzzed launched its emergency F-22.

[@bubblesofthecoast6393]

I remember seeing one up close, and oh boy is the Global Hawk a behemoth; I was surprised at its size, around the same size, if not, larger than even the Super Hornets and F-35’s on the base

[@CharlesHuse]

Wing span on the Global Hawk is a bit longer than the average Boeing 737. 132 feet for the GH vs 118 for the 737

[@stoog7487]

The global hawks wingspan is identical to a c130. The q4 triton atleast. The triton is the U.S. navy q4 version.

[@biancaortegaa]

Even GS as the main character of this mission the F22 steal's the show with a stealth kill lol love to see it

[@amphibian81]

OK, who else smiled during the shot of the 22 flying through GS's remnants smoke trail?! Sorry @GrowlingSidewinder, 22 fan boy here.

[@GrowlingSidewinder]

Loooooool understandable

[@theangelfire]

I did too.

[@terminusarms113]

Good to see you struggling for once lol, love the videos and thank you for all the work you put into them GS. Long love the F-22

For once? He has struggled a lot many times. Especially in the Viggen and Tomcat.

GS: All airborne threats cleared, time to go hunting. Also GS: Why do I hear boss music?

[@meta_aviation4909]

It's really incredible that the situational stance is so high, as if the mig-29 has the f15 rwr system😮

[@ibum4908]

What's special about the f15s rwr?

[@LTKBrns]

I think he mean't by the F-15's 360 RWR While the MiG-29's RWR have much more informations than just telling directions

[@ibum4908]

@LTKBrns well in theory any aircraft can be fitted with an rwr providing similar levels or even greater levels of information as the Russian rwr but I don't know why the Americans have not adopted such a system

[@LeonAust]

@@ibum4908They have It's called DAS

[@abhinavchandra8314]

@@ibum4908what I think he meant is that the mig-29 rwr just said there was an aircraft behind him while the f-15 rwr would have also said what type of aircraft it was

[@nastygen4]

Gotta love GS’s sportsmanship. He was more upset about the amrams and the bandits on the 1st leg of the mission and then when he gets blown out of the sky by an F22 even he can appreciate it 💯. What can ya do bro it’s an F22 doing F22 things 🫶🏼

[@jumbo128]

Man, it's like some people just get an F22 mission and go on a rampage against the enemy... I wounder who could be so cruel... 😆

[@patrickdavis8271]

Fantastic GS! This was a perfect scenario. Real pilots with a F-22 cameo providing security on a high value target! Love it! Keep putting out such amazing work GS!

That Raptor really just came in when you thought you were about to complete the mission and said "Surprise, motherfucker!"

[@DeezAster09]

You should bring back the random dogfights series

yes bandit unknown

2:58 "i still don't have anything in radar" There's been something on the hud for about 30s by that point 😁

And that! GS is what it feels like when you do your sneaky sneak with the F22! Love it! Keep it coming!

[@ryanking6811]

I thoroughly enjoy watching these missions, this one was pretty exciting! Didn’t expect the F22! But who ever does?? Keep ‘em coming GS

[@nooneyouknowhere6148]

Kind of like The Spanish Inquisition. No one expects it.

[@pmgvictor4625]

A brutal back and fourth between the one Mig-29 (MC) and two Su-35s to two F-16s and two F-18s. After finally gaining Air superiority and the ability to go after the mission objective a stealthy challenger appears

F-22... AKA: The Cameraman

[@davidpalmer4184]

At least the F-22 let you see him after the missile hit. Most don't get that privilege!

hey mate just want to say cheers for making this much effort to show us how good dcs really is! iv just gotten into the game after seeing your channel and i won my first dogfight online and im loving it!

This is your captain speaking... If you look out the right side of the plane you may catch a glimpse of an F-22. Hilarious! So funny to see what its like on the wrong side of a Raptor.

[@busterdee8228]

F[ing]22 to the rescue. That had to be frustrating. May as well be at the hands of something beautiful.

[@laymanengineer7502]

Suprise!!!! 🤣😂 Great Mission GS! You were the baddest Mig-29 out there. Still probably got the most kills that day.

[@TomMcD71]

F22 proving it's the king of the skies

[@bitmanagent67]

Dogfights are great but there are already so many of them to enjoy. You have every combination of aircraft duels imaginable. I love the addition of the A10. Keep that going. Should not take much convincing since you love it. 😆 I would love to see more A/G strikes from carriers or airfields. I enjoy the few you have done so far. Maybe do a behind-the-scenes of you setting up a mission and choosing a load-out. That would be a fresh take.

[@TacoSallust]

F-22 dropping flares to say "Hello, you're gonna die."

[@LimoMcG]

F-22 batting cleanup. Gotta love it 😂

[@enonek2960]

That was fun, but man that took way too long for the MIG-29 to die!

[@CaptainSpacedOut]

It's about the pilot GS flies really smart.

[@SSGMinotaur]

If that doesn't tell you how capable the F22 is, I don't know what will. This man is well acquainted with it and knows what it can do, yet still got caught unaware. GOOD FIGHT though! Mig 29 is only so good.

[@natf5869]

Didn't you notice the bee flying Mach 1? 😂

[@crawbag0311]

Hahaha. You took all comers. Fought through. And a bored f22 casually punches your ticket. Fun video.

Plot Twist: The F-22 was there all along...

GS was attacked not from the front, but from the rear. By the Raptor he didn't even know was there.

"Those F-22's are just awesome man." -- Growling Sidewinder, when he's flying one. "Well shit..." -- Growling Sidewinder, when one just bagged him.

[@evilascanbe]

I wonder how long the Raptor was tracking GS' Fulcrum? It's surprising to see all these fighters in action, even for a simulation. Awesome video GS, well done!

[@Dos895]

Actually, that is a very good question. The F-22's sensors located and tracked the MiG without GS even knowing it and gave whoever piloted the F-22 the situational awareness necessary to approach the MiG stealthily.

[@samwatson2373]

Very cool! Thanks GS

[@mbmann3892]

I mean, a MiG-29 downed F-16 and f-18. I wasn’t happy that they didn’t put up more of a fight . But the F-22 made up for it

[@Rlsummers041]

Raptors got to feed. It was getting tired of the vegan balloon diet.

[@marktisdale7935]

That has to be the nightmare of every Iranian pilot. The F-22 creeping and you have no clue.

The Raptor even warned you visually that you're about to die

There's always someone around to spoil your day. Just when you think things are starting to come together, you get one in the face because a F22 just happened to be there!!😝

16:36 moment of realization 16:51 GS being shot 16:56 GS realized that he gets owned by a Raptor. Again.(Last time he was on a SU-27, and the Raptor formed up formation on him and shot him once he realized that)

[@vicroc4]

There was a bit less panic going on this time, though. Probably because it didn't register that it was an F-22 until the missile was already in the air. XD
