- There are a lot of great videos and other resources about how to properly gunfight in the air. Many are hard to apply for new players. These 6 tips are practical things I've picked up over the past few years and should be easier to apply.

Thank you. As a new player struggling to learn to dogfight in the F-5E, this is the most on-my-level video I've found on the subject. And it was very encouraging. I appreciate that.
Thank you for the feedback. That's what I hoped to accomplish with this video. Happy flying!
One really flashy but almost useless move I have learned is that if they are on your tail full throttle up stall watch them fly by you also going up and then just do a fancy spin and run away lol
Flanker training that’s a blast from the past helpful concepts there. Great basic tutorial thanks.
Yeah, for the first 6 months of my DCS fighter experience I got all of my good information from Ironhand/Flankertraining. He personally answered some questions for me on the forums and did it with a lot of patience and respect. I have nothing but good things to say about him and his content. Thanks!
Great video. These are some great starter tips. The only thing I would add is in the gunning portion of the video in the F-16 you need to tms up or right to get rid of the “No Rad” so you can get a lock and ballistic solution. Also that the aiming point is the line going across the “net”. This took me forever to figure out 😂.
I was a little confused about the aim point on the Viper at first. I could get close but I think I was using the wrong indicator.
I’m not even a new player but this was very helpful for some things I need to keep in mind: primarily patience and trust my plane. I still pull too hard and that one is important because it’s such a hard habit to break. Only a couple weeks ago I found myself not doing it for the first time I was aware of and it really paid off. The shorter burst thing is something I think this video has made me aware of so I’m going to have to watch that as well.
I think most of us have an instinct to pull really hard, as if we can will the plane to break the laws of physics. It's so hard to break that habit. I'm glad this was helpful. I don't know that I'll ever be a great virtual pilot but maybe I can fail forward a bit. LOL.
Good stuff man.
Great video
oouuhhheeeeeeehhh this Disco-HUD of the Hornet.....gives me pain to my eyes....but nice video...thanks!
Me n you both man, me n you both!
you reverse to force a one circule or two circle fight, specially for the F-16 in a dog fight we have to force a one circule fight
True. You still have to be careful with the timing I think. A poorly timed reversal is a death sentence.
@@311Gryphon sorry for the delay didn't see your reply well in my humble opinion you dont need to trim in the F-16 what so ever ( the only situation that you have to trim is when you asymmetric payload that's it )
@@solotunis he said timing, not trimming
most aircraft can beat viper in one circle you better go for two
@@self1ghter i think he meant against the f-16 ngl
Just pop the speed brakes and pull the stick hard. It works in Top Gun so I don't see why it wouldn't work in simulators.
I get most of my knowledge from movies.
The ooda loop is just a complicated way of explaining monkey see monkey do xD So thanks very much for the quick start guide ^^
God bless
I've used the Cobra in combat a grand total of twice..... It didn't end well for me either time.
I have to give you credit for trying it. I've never had the mental capacity to even think about it when I'm trying to turn with someone.
When doing ground attack in the su33, ive been using cobras to get a better alignment to targets when doing banking Strafes It has been working pretty well for me. I can see how if you bleed too much speed on the targets, you can be shot down, but i haven’t been punished enough while doing it to think its a bad maneuver
@@Exandria So you're doing a Cobra Turn? I assume so if you're not perfectly vertical. Is it just so you can turn sharply and get around on target faster for subsequent passes? If so I can kind of see that as an option. If it's your first pass you'd be better off taking the time to come in on a vector closer to your intended attack. But having said that, however you want to fly to get the best bang for your buck works for me. That's what I love about this game.
@@311Gryphon thats exactly what im doing! ive been doing cobras but not bleeding all my speed. hypermaneuverability seems to be super useful in getting snapshots in inopportune strafes or to get a massive edge on the dive bombing!
at 5:02 how do you get the hud on your screen like that?
In the F-16C there's an HMD knob just in front of the throttle. Rotate that clockwise to turn it on and adjust brightness.
1) left panel near throttle you see HMCS max it out 2) get into dogfight mode 3) click tms up and you will get that circle
Do you guys accept new members?
You an old CW3?
I have to say "no" because I'm honestly not sure what CW3 is.
@@311Gryphon It was one of the ranks on your pilot. he had Cap, and CW3 it looked like. No worries, was just curious.
@@Rex-ii2yz Ah, gotcha. I think it was on the default patch when I edited the textures. Is that a Chief Warrant Officer? I guess I should do more research when I'm editing files!
@@311Gryphon lol all good. Was just curious as most folks dont have that on their pilot. :) yea its Chief Warrant. Its not an Air force rank, so I thought someone toss on your ranks from RL. A friend did it for my pilot, so I get to fly around wearing Warrant rank :P. all good man, keep on keeping on the amazing work!
Bro spent the first 3 minutes telling us to watch other videos💀💀
LOL. Sort of. I mean, the first 30 seconds or so is intro and then the next 1:20 is disclaimers, and I wanted to make sure I was pointing people to really good training content first so you get about 1:10 of that.
