So I hope this video was helpful to some of the newer people on the channel or anyone who just wanted some things clarified and explained a little more clearly, Keep in mind these are basic explanations especially when it comes to the 1 circle 2 circle thing a lot of these concepts we can expand and talk about for people 20mins each lol if not more but thats not what this video was intended to be, anyway I hope you found this video useful Thank you for watching and the on going support with the channel. Much Love.

[@ditzydoo4378]

Great informational video. Thank you. A question if you please. Has anyone come up with an Air-to-Air missile seeker that that uses a visual lock like the Javelin Anti-Tank missile? This missile seeker once locked visually onto a target is immune to flares/chaff and most other counter measures.

We used to call a 1 Circle Fight a "min Radius Nose Position Fight" - also what happens after about 1 or two further reverses is rather a Scissor (flat or rolling) than another 1 Circle since the flight paths will flatten out more and more...taught BFM for more than a decade...same principles still apply...

Since the start of the pandemic, I have been really getting into fighter jets and I love dogfighting in games like bf1, Bf4, war thunder, etc and so over those months I was going on google and looking up pilot terms like what a one circle fight is, the difference between bandits and bogeys, and alot of other stuff that took time to actually find. But then Growling sidewinder comes out and posts a video explaining every single thing I learning, but in a 17 minute video.... would have been nice if this was posted like 6 or 7 months ago...

@Phil Collins you’d be surprised how many people “discuss” jokes when they don’t understand sarcasm.

[@ConsoleCleric]

Fox -1: Sparrow. Birds need to see their target in order to hit it. Fox -2: Sidewinder. Named after a snake, which can see thermal signatures. Fox-3: Pit-bull. If the dog runs too far away from the owner, it won't hear them. Dog will chase whatever target it sees on it's own.

[@thunderboltcougar5626]

Lol that's pretty accurate analogy. As for the Sparrow. The owner need to direct it to the desired target/position, so the bird would fly to that position/target.

[@americanpatriot4227]

GS quality again. Having recently started DCS and watching videos, one thing I have noticed is that GS stresses survival far more than others. There are some that prefer the Charge ( with tactics ) and then respawn....... Provided limited respawns and aircraft, I believe GS wins a long campaign basically every time. Not sure about other Squadrons and what they prefer, nor have I joined ( or more appropriately - asked to join ) any Discord or Teams at this time, Prefer to learn a bit more first. GS has provided many great Videos and seriously increased that "rate". THANKS GS

[@GrowlingSidewinder]

Thanks man and yes you’re correct I like to stress survival because that’s how it is in real life a country would rather get its multi million dollar plane and pilot it spent millions training back then lost cuz he went to the merge and lost.
