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.

Day 133 of asking for A-10 vs F-14

[@jon-michaelramey7072]

bro that sounds awesome@@Averagephonklistener

[@dani-gt7pu]

bro is it really day 133@@Averagephonklistener

[@potatoskunk5981]

Day 58 of asking for A-10 vs F-86, or A-10 vs a series of different generations of jet fighter.

[@cs12382]

Does DCS have the A6 Intruder?

[@blshouse]

You're making that SU-27 work. Sure, love to see the F-16 match, maybe a rematch against the F-14 as well.

[@HuyV]

What about Fat Amy?

[@marvingillespie6199]

F-22

[@most_sane_piano_enthusiast]

that reversal at the end of the third fight was either a genius calculation or a grave mistake by the opponent

[@mustang1912]

No aircraft has ever pulled 7g for two seconds.

[@_ace_defective_]

You can definitely see where the Hornet pilot made a mistake of their own at 13:20, when they reverse after overshooting. That mistake of course proves to be fatal since GS hits a shot in the very next turn. It probably would have been better to either go up or stay in the rate fight, but I'm guessing they didn't realize they'd overshot until it was too late.

[@jaejampro1]

Of all the channels out their you are the only one that makes this entertaining and eventful. Your skills are better than anyone else I have seen...

[@GrowlingSidewinder]

Thank you I appreciate the kind feedback. I’ll keep trying to keep it interesting around here.

[@sethkush5786]

Dude these bandit unknown fights are so fun to watch

[@sknaop]

When you said that you got to cut of both wings of the F-15, brilliant throwback to the F-15 that landed with one wing! ❤

[@jameshealer1395]

and it was isrealily

[@Lee-sti8wrx]

Great move in the first round dude. But got smoked in the second. That's what I love about these fights. Your opponent learns from you. especially if you're flying the same fighter and he gets to choose different fighters each round. Then great moves in the third. Awesome vid man.

[@Bradly197]

"You gotta get both wings with the F-15" 🤣

[@Garand06]

Timing is uncanny. Local museum just put an SU 27 on display. It's surprisingly massive

[@mikegreck2625]

about 10 feet longer than the Tomcat lol

[@Exenos12]

Thanks for the hard work GS! you always make my day with your videos.

[@GrowlingSidewinder]

Thank YOU for watching.

[@charlie15627]

I really like the videos where you fly Russian aircraft. I just think that its important for people to realize that Russia does make formidable aircraft. Its not like the tv, movies or literature, where they get shot down by the dozens and never stand a chance. they are actually quite formidable and almost always comes down to the skill of the pilots. Russian pilots are getting a hell of a lot more stick time these days too.

[@dimitri1154]

The Flanker is an amazing platform. The fact that it's been heavily modernized into the Su 35, Su 30, Su 34 replacing pretty much all other fighter types is the clearest indicator of that. I concur, love these videos! l as well!

[@Greasy__Bear]

It's not just the movies. they also get thier misconceptions from wars with third world countries. f15s have shot down alot of 3+ and early 4th gen soviet planes wit 40 year old missiles, flown by pilots with less than a quarter of the flight hours of the average russian pilot. US pilots manage this feat with 4+ generation fighters with the latest and greatest missiles. this obviously means fat amy is superior to the felon.😂

[@Ba5edAF]

@@Greasy__Bear blasphemy against the Felon!! unacceptable!

[@harbour2118]

​@@Ba5edAFto be fair the felon works as a fighter, the problem comes down to the fact it is not stealthy

[@harbour2118]

@@Max_Da_G well to be fair, it is classified as a low visibility fighter, so yes its kinda stealthy, just not stealthy enough

[@Noisy_Cricket]

“You gotta get both wings with the F15.” 😭

[@JAEUFM]

Darn GS, a couple of those passes with the Eagle were close enough if you had Sven's distant cousin from the East, Yuri, riding on the back of that Flanker to work on the engines, he could have literally thrown a wrench at the Eagle and ended the fight earlier.

[@basecoat1966]

A guns only battle royale with several other pilots would be a fun watch.

[@truthseeker9454]

I think that's a great idea! Four pilots approaching the merge from N, S, E, and W -- all flying the same plane. Last one flying wins. That would be a very entertaining furball!

[@marvingillespie6199]

Yes please

[@Jed8T8]

I want to see a breakdown of the F14 fight.

[@Dusther210]

I concur

[@adilochwada5957]

You gotta get both wings with the f15 had me cracking😂

[@potatoskunk5981]

"You gotta get both wings with the F-15" LOL

[@lordsqueak]

@7:30 ish It strikes me how similar the profiles of the tomcat with its wings out are to the Sukhoi, I wonder if the designers was looking at the tomcat as inspiration.

[@spinningsquare1325]

No. the wings are different and the tomcat does not have an integral wing. Flanker is most similar to an f16 but with two gondolas

[@rohesilmnelohe]

@@spinningsquare1325 not the wing itself but the profile. The shadow it would cast on the ground very much is. Though original design on Mig29 and Su27 would have had a sinusoidal shape to the wing. They opted against it because that is extremely hard to optimise and manufacture.

[@theandf]

I love the Flanker. Nice video! I like how you explain (and pull) some pretty impressive maneuvers to get out of danger.

[@Remy-vn2bc]

Hands down the best dcs channel on YT. Been watching you for a little over a year ever since the raptor mod was introduced. Not only do you provide great visual content for these aircraft’s but you’re also very informative and I take notes from your videos to apply to my own knowledge when playing.

[@justsomeguywithlasereyes9920]

"Gotta get both wings with the F-15" gave me a good laugh. Also Tomcat Strikes Again.

[@bradcarpenter1881]

That last battle was incredible, had me sweating the whole time!

[@roncourtright4298]

Thank you for the clear descriptions.

[@shafty9147]

Love the subtle “need to take out both wings on the eagle”. If ya know.

[@cpfpv6410]

That last fight was a CHEF's kiss!! Beautiful answer to being out rated.

[@Apitoxin]

That Tomcat did some 'leaf in the wind' shit - that was crazy.

[@stephenhoda3362]

Been watching your craftsmanship for some time, always entertaining & informative, funny & educational. Absolutely the best. Keep it up!

[@personwithaskillissue]

Just saw your Su-27 vid where an F22 formed up on your left wing. Absolutely brilliant. Keep up the good work man!

[@rohesilmnelohe]

8:00 That was beautiful how a seemingly barely flying brick just positioned you to get smacked. He had full AB deployed too... That was so intentional. Nicely done by OPFOR

[@user-fd4il6pi9i]

BLUFOR*

[@genos5702]

man gotta love the Flanker .such a gorgeous aircraft .

[@Pershingguy]

I’d love to see more SU-27 fights in this Chanel!

[@Zog26]

Always love seeing the Flanker in that camo scheme.

[@KematianGaming]

that F-18 fight was crazy good, it really showed your skills

[@timaerialphotofraser9050]

Absolutely awesome. Love the videos. Keep them coming.

[@Zerostar369]

This dude is a strait Assassin! Calling out removing both your wings.

[@varrunningtrains4112]

Great fights! More Flanker content please!

[@yeliabd1]

I see GS has adopted the pilot's, "ahhh" in between words.

[@jerrytkaczyk-ng8hc]

Lesson learned, don’t mess with Mr. Tomcat!

[@RezSkel]

dude this is the best shyt I've seen in a long while. Epic battles! Needs ESPN commentary and live TV coverage globally srs

[@KevinMoriarty]

these videos are so fucking entertaining and informative on the big TV with the soundbar on

[@TriggerThe_ACE015FG]

I love these DCS solo Dogfights.

[@jjkrayenhagen]

The way the tomcat was fighting him, it seems like it knew what was best in the end.

[@birbdad1842]

I always watch your videos right before I go to bed. For some reason theyre incredibly relaxing. And I dont even play dcs. Thx man!

[@vnavspeed6737]

Great content as always

[@XTXImperator]

Very nice as usual GS!

[@therocinante3443]

Millenium7* said that aerodynamically, the SU-27 is the most advanced 4'th gen fighter. That thing looks amazing!

[@SPIN_89]

Dude… that roll… I audibly said “look at roll” right before you 😂 that was gorgeous flying.

[@p_s_hoffman8772]

I watch almost all your videos but don't comment much anymore. This was one of my favorites. The Tomcat turning it around was awesome. He was way too wiley, i saw that one coming. And in the Hornet fight your tighten-down and reversal 👌 beautiful.

[@nfss5110]

This is a “moments of death” clip for sure with the tomcat kill.

[@jmtpolitico80]

Have to say it is all Pilot Skill! Good Job GS!

[@troyshilanski380]

Not a pilot but agree with the results, great flying both of ya.

[@ohmydog9171]

dope content as always man

[@anubizelxg]

Holly molly that reversal got me excited

[@krowwithakay]

Let's go always love to see GS flying the Flanker!

[@martineec1856]

would love to see a SU-25 video like the ones you do in the A-10!

[@SvenTeresniak]

good video! the su-27 is beautiful.

[@pastaprod3297]

Really liked that video! I would like to see next a 2v2 cold war era (with vocal of course!).

[@neojabin1329]

8:03 Look at how enthusiastic he is about being shot down. 🤣

[@tylerouimette2934]

Hell yeah. I was just wondering if you had a new video

[@stephenhoda3362]

That was fun!

[@hatoffnickel]

Nice fights! Is it possible to show what it looks like from bandit's POV when they misread lead cues?

[@chalkbos]

it's not the plane, but you! you are too good man!

[@certinho76]

Yes. I love your videos. I would like to see a Su-27 Flanker vs a F-16 Viper!

[@williamrogers4114]

As always, an exelent master class.

[@Phoenixs_AviationYT]

Cool!

[@MrCarlosky5]

Nice video with the flanker

[@lancemcilwainoutcastmetald5398]

The hornet is the absolute easiest jet to kill in a gunfight. Even the old f-5 can take down the hornet.

[@galatians-2.20]

Dang man you had that tomcat but you started shooting on your way too late when he was practically past your nose already

[@Inazuma68]

Impressive how quickly things can change in favor of one to another 😳

[@colindunleavy8211]

Oh you had to drop it at this time of the night . BST and going to bed watch tomorrow

[@The_Romanian_Commander]

Yay new video!

[@FatMrCream]

I was waiting for this yeah 🎉🎉

[@paulbuchholz9006]

I live in a military town Buford, South Carolina, and all of the F18 pilots. I talk to tell me you are exactly right. It's pilot skill how much you fly? And how well-trained you are. And the day F18 platform is still a formidible enemy.

[@CNCTEMATIC]

GS - can you explain what the "losing cues" are in 2 circle fights, and what the "reversal cues" are in 1 circle fights?

[@texoschannel4907]

Nice! Please more flanker vids :)

[@sergiogaragarza5578]

4:54 "you got to get both wings on an F15" 😅

[@user-ue8yb7ux7x]

You just scalped that eagle. See its funny because I'm native.

[@andrehaleta8401]

It’s a beautiful dance dogfighting is!

[@Tenchigumi]

Do you feel a significant difference between between something like the typical Western Vulcan cannon vs. a Russian GSh-30-1? I'm pretty new to this whole DCS thing. On paper, their firing rates and calibers are obviously much different, but as a casual viewer they all just look like brrrrap dead.

[@GrowlingSidewinder]

Well it seems u have a better chance of hitting with the Vulcan 20mm cuz of its spread. But the 30mm on the flankers and migs means 1 hit generally finishes the fight. Not always the case with the 20mm. So both have their own pros and cons

[@Prophet-of-the-Unknown-Lord]

Having mainly flown the Su-27, the F-14, and F/A-18 (with the Flanker being the one I know best), I definitely prefer the GSh-30-1. It's lethal if you score a hit, and well, I find it way easier to put rounds on target with it. I find its pipper to be more stable than US ones, and also simpler especially compared to the Hornet. Maybe it's just a matter of habit, but I don't like the 20mm much.

[@yungcaco1443]

Yeah that was sick. Defo do the F16 next man

[@IM2a1]

"You got to get both wings in F-15" - such a good line...

[@madmarauder9925]

FLANKER VS F16 would be nice .....nice flying by the way

[@guyderagisch4964]

Going inverted is a common Tomcat Tactic.

[@grisslebear]

After that Hornet fight, your new Russian call sign is: счастливая собака schastlivaya sobaka

[@Warsmith_Honsou]

Always like to see Flanker.😊

[@abdc2990]

Would love to see more B-2 missions ))

[@ProKr3w]

Can you do an in depth tutorial on each jet… and by in depth I mean enough info to take off and do BFM and BVR..

[@abbaerfani9007]

Gerat fight by you GS again and also it's prof to people in 1975 that they were asked king of Iran why he chose F14 over F15 for Iranian airforce at that time. Thanks again 😊

[@makararamoabi6857]

you did the samething the tomcat did, used a disadvantage to gain an advantage on the confused enemy

[@michaelj4009]

Flanker vs F16 would be great!

[@DDayJayke]

Oh yeah! GS in the Flanker. Anyone wanna bet on him winning all the dogfights?

[@jmnapigkit]

He lost against the tomcat

[@The_Radeo_Demon]

GS!!!!, we need the video!, SU-57 vs AH-64!

[@702BattleBorn]

Yo GS, thanks for the weekend video. Yo 2-3 Golf, Pukin dogs looking good! Have a pleasant day. Cheers.

[@ericsince84]

He knew you’re so much better at one circle yet he still choose the tomcat and won the fight.

[@whalehands4779]

Do another video! I love enemy unknown. No knock against 1-2 Golf, but you seem to have his number.

[@RazloTPD]

There was a moment there where it looked like the F-14 was experimenting with the secret art of the three-circle fight; Drunken Boxing Style.

[@d3us3xmach1na5]

Tbh I can see a huge market for sim dogfight tournaments.

[@johnelliott7850]

Nice dogfights - although forgive me for saying that I enjoyed the one with the F-14 the most.

[@firebald2915]

Multiple viewed... and I desired to feel G. DCS got something going on that type of sim ? Or does large screen with peripheral give that sensation ? haha ! weeeeeee...

[@mrinmoyhaldar5036]

Another video with you on Su 35 vs bandit unknown 🔥
