    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.

      Most of Mig 29 users aside from Russia and India do not have C4ISTAR assets like AWACS. Mig 29s opponent nations always had AWACS advantage and the users of F-15 were all first world nations with better intel networks.
      Israel got AWACS around mid 1980...after that, they literally became untouchable, better intel network. Before those times, even their opponents had their own ace pilots and Israel had lots of losses.
      Pretty much, Mig 29 is just plain unlucky.

  • @Junker_1
    @Junker_1 Před rokem +9

    Toxic is a great pilot. What I don't understand is why people when they are desperate don't start playing in the mountains to create angles and make it more difficult for for example GS. Or using sort of loops where you come out very low to the ground. If anyone follows he has to be very precise with the speed otherwise he plows in the ground or has to pull so hard he becomes very slow. Or why the clouds are not used (yes I know you can lock him and follow him). You can make it very difficult for the bandit. I don't know if there is a rule between the bandit and GS to not do that. But I never see it used. It seems they often let them lead to slaughter.

    @mowabb Před rokem +1

    Fun Fact: the only reason Rico Rodriquez entered the merge with the mig 29 was cause he couldn’t get awacs to confirm the identity of the plane at long range and he was afraid of possibly shooting an allied f-15. So he had to get close to it to visually identify it as a mig for his wingman to hopefully shoot down. But by the time he confirmed it was a mig 29 he was too close and found himself in a classic turning dogfight.

    With you flying, a Wright brothers plane with no weapons is a good dog fighter lol.

    After seeing the fight with loaded aircrafts, I'd be more interested in those since they seem to be more likely.

    I have to ask because it seems so familiar (and I know its right on the tip of my tongue) but what was the music used in this video? I know I've heard it before in a game but I just can't pick it.
