I’ve been spending a lot of time on the Spitfire the past couple of weeks. I just need some more time to get better acquainted with flight models, limitations, and switchology. I’m improving a bit each time though. I did outrun a friend in an F-18 with the MiG-21 in a guns only dogfight for like 15 minutes at close separation until he finally ran out of rounds, that was pretty satisfying.
Engine stall due to negative G According to DCS 21bis manual, "The pilot can safely fly inverted for 15 seconds with up to 100% RPM, 5 seconds at normal and 3 seconds at emergency afterburner"
Yep exactly, this was my first time flying a combat sortie in the MiG 21 so there were a lot of harsh lessons learned haha. I was mainly just messing around. Yesterday I had a really good run with it. Outran an F18’s cannons for about 15 minutes straight of low level high speed flight through the mountains just feet above the treetops and rocks and I was impressed with myself and that old smokey workhorse, it held its own even though it’s obsolete in so many ways.
Maneuver to force overshoot at 4:20
это достойно, очень достойно!!!
you have to first fly on piston planes for at least a year to know that you are flying in close combat on a mig-21

I agree. I need more practice. This was my first combat with the MiG 21.
