I think meeting the F22 with the mig 15 was actually best case scenario in a best of X type of challenge. You lost your worst airplane against his best airplane.

GS, your series of videos on 2-circle tactics with the F-16 has really helped me improve my flying. Being able to strong-arm somebody into that 2-circle fight when you want it is very powerful. But I still have problems when on the receiving end. I would love a similar series with a 1-circle fighter, showing how to recognize reversal cues and how to execute counter 2-circle tactics.

[@LOVEMUFFIN_official]

Agreed!

[@hirumaryuei]

A good idea might be to rewatch the Tomcat section of the video, although the Tomcat has some technical issues and doesn't quite do what GS would hope for, he basically puts himself in the losing position of the 2-circle, evades the nose of the F16, tightens down the turn and the F16 overshoots him. Unfortunately part of the reason is that he compressor stalled and lost all his airspeed and the F16 just runs away, so he does it again and has a bit more success.

[@zanaduz2018]

He has, in several of his older videos (look up several of his videos where he flies a Mirage 2000, which is the quintessential 1-circle fighter).

[@GrowlingSidewinder]

to be honest man, every single video is kind of that, especially the older ones where I'm still using tacview for every fight, I would look at those, but in every video I try to talk through what I'm doing which is technically a tutorial. I can't really make a tutorial where I say if he does this you do that, dogfighting is just too fluid for something like that.

@Seraph if you're seeking a fundamental building blocks breakdown you can also consider Air Combat Tutorial Library, they have a good series codifying the fundamentals in nice slides and with examples, so if your learning style is more verbal that will help

If you win, you bring the same jet next round, but if you lose you climb the ladder and bring the next best jet on the list. The goal is to stay as low on the ladder as possible. Once you lose your best jet, you've lost the match overall.
