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.

One in thing i would love to see in DCS is more detailed damage models.

[@F22Lover]

I'd argue that the damage models are pretty fantastic already. There's only so much they can do before it's too heavy of a load. I think that it serves its purpose well.

[@jameshodgson3656]

@@F22Lover IL2 kind of does it better since there aren't set damage points, you can shoot tiny chunks off your opponent, putting holes through them etc. DCS could definitely get that done if they wanted to, it's not that computationally intensive when computers have gotten so much better in the last decade or so since DCS came out

[@debbiestimac5175]

@@F22Lover I'd agree with you on that one. Kids don't know how good they have it with DCS, the first computer flight sims didn't even have runways, the program had you fly over a triangle at the right speed and it meant you landed, found that out reading about the first F-15 Strike Eagle sim for the Apple IIe and IBM PC's.

[@somerando8615]

When you get hit with a missile in an F14 you'll get system failures based on where the missile hit and probably have a chance to eject. When you get hit with a missile, gunfire, or a small bird in an F18 you hear a poof and go into instant death mode with both your wings ripped off.

[@tonyrun5802]

it's a matter of appearance, the computer takes the damage into account already. You'd need to see the A-10's damage model, one of the most detailed in DCS

[@TomSarh]

I honestly did not comprehend how good you are before this video. Killing "modern" jets with an old one is really impressive

[@beatboxbuggi6884]

Look up MB-339 Vs F-22 that he did a while back. That was the jawdropper for me😂

[@gramounkal]

Note that this is a gunfight. Those old jets, they were built around the gun. On modern jets, the gun is more of a sidearm. If the new gen jets were allowed to use their normal loadout, even if you get to the merge (which is dubious to begin with), you'll eat a heatseeker before your first turn it done. Same with those "WW2 or training jet beats the F-22". A medieval knight will always win a fight against a roman legion soldier. Unless the rules states "no horse, no polearm, no sword longer than your forearm." so the knight is forced to fight with their dagger. Those rules are designed to favor one side.

[@AirwayZombie]

These other guys all fought in a way that minimized their advantages over the MiG-15. They could have used their superior thrust and sustained turn capability to dominate the fight, but they just served themselves up to GS.

[@lt.lasereyez8891]

Normally a faster fighter with a bigger turn rate would extend away from a more maneuverable foe then return at high speeds and go head to head to negate the superior agility of the enemy. Here they agreed NOT to do that, no head to head shots.

[@Hebdomad7]

@@gramounkal Agreed. A Modern Soldier would even worse against a Roman Soldier if given the restriction of melee weapons only. Sure bayonets exists. But they would do poorly against a sword/spear and shield.

[@debbiestimac5175]

Growling Sidewinder : "It's extremely difficult to hit something with those 37mm rounds..." Except when you have an F-15 in front of you in planform, with a surface areas bigger than a WWII B-17. Those MiG-15 cannons were like, "Mine! Mine! Mine!" (Finding Nemo reference)

[@God_is_in_the_details]

I guess the pilot is always the X factor: if I wield a potato it’s laughable, if Bruce Lee wields the potato it’s deadly.

[@BeingFireRetardant]

Love the different rates of fire and velocities out of the MiG-15 23mm and the 37mm cannons. One shoots flat and fairly rapidly, while the other is a lazy softball warmup pitch to home plate... But when they converge at 300 yards on an hostile airframe, it's like a symphony of destruction.

[@2020Max1]

Most definitely, whoever he was flying against didn't know what they were doing. Other than poor piloting there is no reason that any of those aircraft should have lost to a Mig15.

[@codypierce2970]

@@2020Max1 The modern jets not being allowed to use missiles makes a difference too. Normally that eagle would have smoked him with a sidewinder when he went vertical in front of him like that

[@2020Max1]

@@codypierce2970 While missiles give modern fighters a distinct advantage over 2nd gen fighters, a missile is not a guaranteed "I win" weapon. The USAF and USN learned this the hard way with the F-4 Phantom of which the first iterations of the airframe lacked a gun. Putting that aside though this was supposed to be a guns only fight and my point still stands, none of those 4th Gen fighters should have lost to the Mig 15. They all had better thrust to weight ratios, and higher top speeds. They should have all used boom and zoom tactics rather than trying to turn fight.

[@Jerrys_missing_finger]

The thing I love most about your videos is I like to put myself realtime in the seat and see if you and I make the same maneuvers.... And I usually pick opposite turns and climbs.... And that is why I absolutely suck.

[@GM-fh5jp]

Love the "oomph/thud" sound as those cannon rounds hit LOL Great flying, Growly.

[@lilzenongene]

"every time you cannot go into the vertical like this, you just end up slow and an easy target" he says while minutes earlier he went vertical and reversed an eagle in a mig-15

[@BeingFireRetardant]

Yes, but also... yes.

[@gilgamesh9x]

if i'm not mistaken, when he went vert his opponent had either overshot or didn't have an angle on his tail. when his opponents went vert, he was all but sniffing at their exhaust, which is what gave him their tails

[@codypierce2970]

The eagle not being able to use a sidewinder in that situation also helps

[@markstott6689]

"I think the pilot might be dead.....?" Yeah 37mm through the canopy tends to have that effect funnily enough 🤣🤣🤣

[@CapTexamerica]

"He is leaking...everything there is to leak." Yeah, that happened to me more than once when I was in Korea, and I didn't need 37mm to do it.

Amazing youre able to fly this old Mig 15 and take on modern aircraft. would LOVE to see more of the Mig 15

[@Delzona]

Amazing that a jet that old could best modern day fighters in a dogfight!! I think that the modern jets didn't use their advantages of thrust, but instead let themselves get pulled into the MIGs realm. This is just an observation since I don't play DCS.

[@Majima_Nowhere]

You're pretty much correct. At any point, a modern jet can just burn in a straight line and be gone before the MiG gets his nose around. Then they're free to turn around and shove an AMRAAM up his exhaust. Makes sense that the plane designed as a gunfighter is decent in a gunfight.

[@kyriakos2706]

Whoever was flying the eagle and the hornet should have come into the merge at speeds around M1 and then should have gone into the vertical followed by dropping down on the mig.

[@bamlee6168]
