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.

[@GrowlingSidewinder]

Appreciate you.

[@bridgecross]

When I was a kid in the early 80's we lived near a large airport with an attached Connecticut ANG base. We'd sit on the front porch and watch these A-10s doing maneuvers overhead. It was a relatively new platform at the time. They were just fascinating to watch. Been a fan ever since. When the 1991 Gulf War started, first thing I thought was "I know what's going to be useful right now!"

[@ivanthemadvandal8435]

F111 did more damage in fewer sorties, the A10 is the Nickelback of combat aircraft

[@fredolka8552]

The A-10 is just an amazing plane. I wish the air force would come to their senses and not retire a very usefull aircraft.

[@CastleGraphics]

completely different missions. Make sure you know what you're talking about before opening your mouth

[@bridgecross]

@@CastleGraphics Connecticut and Iraq certainly must have been different environments. I’m sorry

[@Ev0L5]

I LOVE the sound of the A10 cannon and the sound when it flys by. One of my favorite jets.

[@munkyzero]

OV-10 Bronco versus A-29 Super Tucano 💥👍🏼

[@45CaliberCure]

I love the A-10 videos. You have a great affinity for that aircraft. Then again, you do well with everything with wings. Love the warbirds, as well.

[@dagrak9349]

I love the A 10 ground pound videos!! Would love to see the F 16 using guided bombs from a higher altitude. Love the content man!

[@DarKFrenzy108]

A-10 is my absolute favorite to use in DCS. I cleared 44 ground targets and 1 air target in one run completing an entire objective solo.

[@andresilvasophisma]

10:57 That's some mighty flying by the F16, fully loaded with air brakes on.

[@donaldploger5630]

Kind of a nostalgic moment for me... I grew up just outside of Shaw Air Force Base (Where your F-16's were from), I used to watch the A-10's fly so low over my house that you could see the rivets in the sheet metal and then I turned 18, joined the Army and probably have been to whatever city/country you were bombing 😂 Another great video bud

[@thedyingmeme6]

15:24 Hey!!!! It's my state!!!!!!! *wipes tear* Im so fuckin proud!!!!

[@CNCTEMATIC]

Damn the Warthog carries a hell of a lot of ordnance!

[@_av8]

The ground quality graphics are surprisingly amazing

[@spencerwarren9219]

Thatgun run was badass. Got to jump in my a10 with vr tonight. Havent flown the hog in a while now. I like your low approach for the sam 6 and sam 11

[@Jannik_Stein]

I‘m getting into the Warthog recently after watching your Videos. Today I had half of my wing torn off by an ATGM, however in manual control mode I managed to land it

[@kuhnville3145]

truly is a beast, isn't it ik the F-15 did this too with the whole wing gone but that doesn't make it not impressive

[@truthseeker9454]

Nice flying! But the maintenance crew chief is NOT gonna be happy about that. 😄

[@mtreis86]

Would any planes fighting themselves be interesting? I imagine a10 vs a10 would be a slugfest. f22 vs f22 would be kinda weird with them both being stealthy. And I assume f16 vs f16 is a coinflip of who makes a mistake first in the 2-circle.

[@idfclutchnixon]

That has been done many times on the channel when there are symetrical aircrafts, but it's still very interesting to watch. It's not only about who makes the mistake first. It's more about how each pilot treats his aircraft...

[@Alfaspiderman84]

Hey Battle Creek ANG! I used to work on those jets when I was in the ANG. Cool to see those markings again. Thanks.

[@EskimoActual]

I was hoping to see DM 355th.

[@treeWasNice]

Day 99 of asking for AH-64 Apache versus Su-57 Felon I can't believe it's been so long… its been over 3 months since I started this. Thank you to everyone who's supported me and my journey.

[@HalftonJohnson]

Keep fighting!

[@treeWasNice]

@@HalftonJohnson I will

[@MadRabbit92]

8:58 Wow this was really cinematic and looked awesome.

[@j4s0n39]

The tactic I like to use against sites like this is to make a mark point on the radar from far away, then get within 7NM hugging the ground and pop up, slave all the sensors to the mark point, lock the mav on the radar, launch, then flare and run away.

[@guillaumelalonde7945]

This is the way, very nerve racking stuff especially against SA-8s.

[@adamhunter5026]

I can never get bored of the A-10C gameplay! Although, other air to ground aircraft would be interesting!

[@covahredro8370]

Look if anyone asks, just tell them there were enemy combatants in those buildings.

[@thomasjcarver1]

More air-to-ground always my favorite. Thanks for the A-10 coverage. About to get my warthog setup soon including head tracking, ect.

[@juliangross1417]

Love the michigan representation. A10 From Battle Creek MI! Keep up the great content. Love to see the videos you make.

[@parkerloertscher7992]

Drops a cluster bomb, "I think that may be off... 'hits' oh no were good its in the field 'cluster munitions spread to some of the residents homes" yeah no big deal xD

[@cinghialex2589]

It could be interesting to deplete the ammunition of the missile battery, with a series of approaches and departures near the site

[@EncephalonBubble]

GS in dogfights : Good thing we managed to land the plane outside of a residential area GS in A-10 : cluster bombs in the center of a city lets gooooooooo

Love the ocasional AtG mission, would be nice to see how the A29 performs in these types of mission, as it is said to be the budget A10

[@_Dippy]

"oops that was almost someones house" *proceeds to drop cluster munitions* 💀

I always say it ain’t a good A10 mission if you don’t come home with at least a couple of holes in the aircraft! 😂🤣

[@Yabbagabbagool]

Would be interested to see the mi-28 go up against the a-10 if your still on a Warthog kick for the moment

[@920utdoor]

Man i wanted you to drop those 2 2000 lb boms on that little btr

[@JH_789]

Firing AAA at an A-10 is like starting a coup against Putin. You better finish the job, and quick.

[@LongBinh70]

"Drop your bombs between the minarets..."

[@teacherlarsls]

Well, I feel like we all learned something about cluster munitions today. 😬

[@Bank_left]

Put together a massive mission with something like 50 people on both sides Manning every piece of equipment from jets, helicopters to all types of AAA fire You have to fly the A10C All parties mission specific and the results will be glorious

[@hoilst265]

Generals gathered in their masses Just like witches at black masses (Man, bless Sabbath for not only rhyming "masses" with "masses", but choosing to open the damn song with it.)

[@YashChauhan-wp7xx]

Can you do a mission where you work in like a unit of different aircraft with different role without much knowledge of enemy's strength and positions, it'll be awesome

[@Dinkdestroyer-21]

You should recreate stroke 3 evading the 6 sams

[@amudus1265]

could you do a mission where you're playing as the ground forces?

[@curtisbartlett8170]

How about some old jets? Super sabers maybe.

[@b2tall239]

[@oliverfernandez1816]

Try the A-29B Super Tucano the next time.🔥🔥🔥

[@fins-n-skins7524]

A-10s with Mavs, best tactic is pop up around terrain

[@tonyennis1787]

As a tank-killing weapon, the GAU-8 has seen better days. While it can't really kill with more modern tanks, the impacts and fragments of the 30mm shells shred tanks' sights, lights, and sensors making them mission-killed.

[@BSAtlantia24]

I’ve noticed a slight difference between myself and GS when an SA site fires a SAM…… GS: Long pause, “hmmmm, Ok, let’s go ahead and defend” Me: AAAAGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHH !!! They fired a SAM !! AAAAAGGGGGHHHH !!

[@SUPIDO623]

Day 3 of asking for su-47 Berkut vs f22 raptor dog fight I think it would be awesome 😀 also this is my favorite video ever you made my day the a10 is such a fantastic plane!!

[@Casual7646]

it could be awesome

[@user-bw6jg4ej2m]

A prototype plane without weapons installed vs. F-22? LOL
