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.

Which Yak are you flying GS? Some pilots regarded the Yak-3 as being superior to the P-51 and Spitfire.
A not well known historical fact is the crucial role in the battle played by legendary Russian fighter ace Growlnikov Sidewinderski, who decimated the Luftwaffe over Stalingrad almost by himself.
loool had a good laugh at this one, I read that name and it took me a second to catch on.
I believe he was also known as the ghost of stalingrad. Very famous pilot. I think this is actual footage of it.
A little known fact about him is that every fact is a little known
Гроэлников Сайдвайндерский
Groelnikov Saydwindersky
Not exactly as you put it, but Russian doesn’t have a letter for W, they have to substitute other letters and combinations to create similar sounds.
Put my Russian Cyrillic translation and English translation of that, into Google translate, play the audio, and you’ll see that it sounds about as accurate as it’s going to get, given the restraints of the differences between the two languages.
@@JesusFriedChrist in Russian it will be Гроулинков Сайдвиндерский, but sounds like polish) or a double surname of some Czech))
"I've just got to get this thing on the ground" That part was pretty inevitable. It's getting the aircraft on the ground and walking away afterwards that's the complicated part. :D
Well said.
The difference is on vs IN😂
The planes on the ground and the pilots alive, a successful landing!
OMG! That WW2 must've been terrifying! I'm just glad no one got hurt.
@@robappleby583 hitler even made a formal apology and made a wholesome tik tok
The Soviet pilots flying on the battle of Stalingrad probably thought "thank God I'm not fighting on the ground".
It was absolutely mental what took place there.
A local talk radio station once had a PSA in which a WW2 US army infantryman was talking about fighting across France, living in the dirt and mud, and one day seeing a wave of US bombers flying east overhead. “Man, those guys have it made! Beds to sleep in at night, hot chow every day, hot showers, what a life!” Some hours later he saw them flying west, greatly reduced in number and with a lot trailing smoke or on fire. “Boy, I’m glad I’m not up there!”
@@philsmith2444 😂
@@philsmith2444 Touchè!
Because population was much smaller in the distant past, most humans who have ever lived, lived recently. I think if you could plot the location of every human death on a map for as long as we've been a species, Stalingrad would still clearly stand out. What a disaster.
I loved the cinematic intro, giving us a little view on the history! If it is possible, please a F4U-Corsair video soon, its my favourite plane of WW2!
Corsair is modeled in exactly 0 contemporary flight sims, so I would not hold my breath if I were you. From this and other comments i get the impression that half of the people here have no idea what aircraft are available in what sim.
That’s a damn shame. I hope it won’t take too much longer before every single plane from history is available. We’re really missing out on tons of potential great gameplay.
@@palker4 most of us i think don't even play Sims (atleast that's the case for me)
@@palker4 yeah, I fly em but I get a lot don’t. it’s a shame the corsair isn’t in like any flight sims tho cause the pacific theater was wack.
@@palker4Yeah...
Hey,
Could you keep doing the night vision F-16 videos? I watched the last one like 3 times it was so good. The real life scenarios are so thrilling
Loool ya sure I’ll see what I can do
, especially those with a storyline, gotta say I'm loving the new approach. I guess it will be easier having a wingman...
@@GrowlingSidewinder maybe make it a series? Iran clearly won the surprise attack, so now it's time for a counterattack into Iran?
just finished it myself.. amazing vid and was sad when it ended lol
@@mylifeisajoke1 best idea, do it
I love the animations. You can see that BF109 pilot rock back and forth as he's hit at 3:13.
Can't tell which i prefer, the IL-2 videos, or the DCS ones, both are great!
Bahahaha xD "hold ALL OF THIS my dude.... have a nice day byeeeeee" had me rolling lol (2:58)
Thanks for constantly sharing awesome content for us to enjoy. Would have loved a cut to a black screen with "Killed in headquarters" at the end there.
Thanks GS. these WW2 videos you produce are the finest on the web.
I don't know about that...I'd have to give the "Best" title to Der Sheriff here on CZcams when it comes to WW2 content. Check out his channel.
I love these WWII videos! I downloaded the I-16 in DCS to try out and it's a blast to fly! I've been looking at getting IL-2 for a couple weeks, now.
Definitely get it. They do have huge discounts regularly (usually at the same time as Steam sales, but better to buy on their site).
is WW2 grund pounding fun in DCS?
@@aapje can you use a controller or do you need a HOTAS?
@MOJO392 There are people who use a controller, although you probably need to use a head tracker to be able to look around. You can get a very cheap head tracker that works quite well with your smartphone and SmoothTrack.
I rarely comment, but have to say I really enjoy your videos and commentary. Always entertaining and funny. Keep up the good work.
many thanks, I appreciate it.
Hey GS, an idea for a new combat format: instead of doing bandit unknown, do a loadout unknown. You and the bandit each have a total of 4 fox3s and 6 fox2s for 5 rounds. Neither of you knows, what the other guy brings to battle. Should be a lot of fun.
Great video! The intro gave me chills. Your production quality has gotten really good. Thank you for the awesome content!
You should target the oil radiator on Ju-87 - its located on the bottom of plane - right under the engine. It make sense especially when you have only 7.62 mm
That touchdown at the lip of the runway was the sweetest kiss!
If possible, a "time travel" video with a MiG-15 in Stalingrad would be awesome.
Unfortunately the mig-15 is in DCS and the Stalingrad map is in il-2... Do you guys even play these sims?
@@jonredcorn862 no, most of then don’t.
Love the WW2 vids. Also a big fan of Russian planes.
**The best cinematic and dramatical intro ever plays**
Growling: "Alright guys, welcome to another video"
That intro was kinda fire
I like the mix of new and old. Keep up this pacing.
I'm loving the WWII content and I'm hoping to see missions in the P-51D and La-5FN soon!
Yes. .....La-5.........👍👍👍
I cannot wait until the Reality 12k QLED is released in 2023, with this new generation of GPU's RTX 4000 and RDNA 3 it's bound to be a good time for gamers.
"Well I won't be shot by my own guys for cowardice."
...
"ARE YOU SURE ABOUT THAT?"
Under the circumstances, that was a beautiful landing.
Great one and was good that was longer. Worth every second to watch!
In the future a forward slip will let you look out the side of the canopy for landing as well as make a steeper descent to the threshold to land short of the craters.
That way it’s a shorter walk to get shot.
Bro makes a whole movie for the intro
"My objective is not to live. I will fight and die for Stalingrad."
*Gets hit*
"RUN AWAY!"
Yeah, that battle was devastating. We'll never know how much people died, but civilians and both armies together form the number between 2.800.000 and 4.000.000.
A little historical fact: in the central district of Stalingrad (almost 1/4 of the city) after the first wave of luftwaffe bombardments there was no structurally intact buildings. And the number of alive civilians? fewer than 10.
ShKAS was a rapid-fire 7.62mm machine gun, it's rate of fire was about 1800 shots per minute. Weak bullets but lots of them.
WWII dogfights are by far the best.
12:15 lol... you jerk, I had to spit my soup out! 🤣
If that is the Yak-3, they were so lethal that the Luftwaffe issued a general directive to not engage, stating "avoid combat below five thousand metres with Yakovlev fighters lacking an oil cooler intake beneath the nose!"
''Clever girl, that guy...''
*_Growling Sidewinder, 03-11-2022_*
actually as a matter of fact, the yak-1, have one 20 mm and 2 12.7 mm (.50cal) berezin
Nope, you're mistaking it for the Yak-3, or Yak-7B. Yak-1 had 2 7,62mm Shkas and one 20mm Shvak. At one point, they upgraded the Yak-1 to the B variant, with a better canopy, and replaced the 2 Shkas with one UBS Berezin 12,7mm.
Lead your targets more! Don’t shoot where they are now, but rather shoot where they will be when your rounds arrive.
OBTW, long time fan… Great videos!
"That scratch? Perhaps a visit with Tovarich Blochkin will convince you to do more for the Rodina, you wrecker!"
re - 14:45
And the worst part about that failure is that the headquarters that they hit was having a high level meeting to discuss immediately arming all Soviet combat aircraft with guns more powerful than the wimpy .30 calibre (7.62mm)...
Best air battle EVER - loved this.
What distance are your guns set to to shoot so accurately in theses IL2 videos? If I remember correctly the default is set to converge at 500m, but I have heard that in real life pilots had their guns set to converge at 200-250m. Every time I watch one of these videos I am amazed how accurate your shots are over a pretty broad range of distances. From my experience planes in IL2 become extremely inaccurate when you get inside their set gun range since the shots end up left and right of the target.
It seems quite often GS is flying planes with much of their armament mounted in the nose.
My personal preference in IL2 has been 250, as I've experimented and found I personally can't hit beyond 350 so convergence won't really matter at longer ranges.
GS is a great shot, but even in these videos you'll notice his efficacy at *downing* rather than just *hitting* enemy planes is a lot greater when he gets very close.
Great video. Loved the intro! What a brutal war!
The Yak sounds so smooth.
have purchased this game, and also a thrustmaster flight stick. no experience with either, but cannot wait
Great vid as usual, love that kind of "mission impossible" videos! Keep it up. Btw, that was a spin, not a flat spin.
Remember with VR or head tracking you can open your canopy and stick your head out to see past your nose when you get oiled. Yak's have a canopy that doesn't fly off when you open it in flight.
Love the WW2 vids. (Flatspin) "Ok good recovery Mav. Now let's get back there and help Ice. Mav?! What are you doing? You're landing!!" lol
Comrade Growlinov, the only thing saving you today is the fact you got shot and still went back into the fight, scoring multiple kills. Stalin is watching your performance closely. :P
2:15 Looks like aiming at bombs is a good way to destroy a bomber.
Attempt 25! Frogfoot!
Could you please bring out *the flying lol machine I-16 against the F-22 and the Felon?*
Also, could you please show us ground strafes with different weapon setups from ground perspective? We all know how A10 Brrrt sounds from the ground and looks on target, some even know that for Viper's 20mm, but I really wonder how a 37 mm, 6 x 50 cal., 23 mm MiG-21 and 30 mm MiG-29 long strafes would look and sound on target!
A SU25 video against a f22 or felon would be useless it, unlike a a10 which is actually very good at dogfighting against equal adversary's, the su25 turns like a brick and cant dogfight at all. Let alone against a raptor or felon
That last kill was amazing, gotta say I love the IL-2 vids!
love how they put the german love song "Erika" in there, just great
Neat. Good to some coverage of the WW2 eastern front.
hey i got a request for you, could you put all your IL-2 related videos into a playlist? it seems you do (or at least did) alot of DCS content but personally i (and others i assume) are more here for the IL-2 content, so being able to find those more easily instead of swimming through DCS vids would be sweet, if that's not too much of a hassle.
that's actually a very good idea, I'll do that, if you don't see one in the near future please comment again to remind me, I'd very much appreciate that.
@@GrowlingSidewinder day 2 of requesting an IL-2 playlist
@@GrowlingSidewinder not-so-daily reminder for that IL-2 playlist
@@l4dfanatic11 oh yes, I forgot. Going to do it now Thank you again
@@GrowlingSidewinder np mate, now I just gatta wait for an i-16 video XD
GS - "Six o'clock looks good, I think."
A FEW MOMENTS LATER
GS - "Ok, I have been shot."
turns out 6oclock was actually not good lol
I'm curious as to whether there was much/any risk of FOD from close range shooting as seen in this video.
Dude, your commentary is awesome "hold this lead for me"😎😂
That was so good and raw! Could you do the infamous Yak-9T next? Or even some of the LA5, LA7s etc.
Where exactly is he going to fly an la-7?
The audacity of the Stukas to go on their bombing dive as theyre getting lit up from behind lmao
What a great series!
Thank you Mr. Sidewinder!!
Please do a video on the MC.202
One of my fav's.
Hey, im probably gonna buy a quest 2 tomorrow, do you have any tips for VR?
3:41
Hey! You're operating a fighter, NOT a lawnmower tovarich!
You are like a Gorovets pilot who shot down 9 Yu-87 in one battle))It worked beautifully.
Your best one in a long time, defined as filling tails with lead
Great vid!.... I wouldn't mind seeing a campaign with Ivan Killinkrauts defending Stalingrad. lol ;)
Look on the bright side GS, at least if your HQ has been hit by theose Stukas you won't get bollocked by the Commisar when you finally put down!! 🤞
i love the unconventional videos mirroring real life scenarios, f16 night time video was cool af, scary without the AIM120D's
The amount of civilians killed by stray 7.62s from this plane has to be at least more than one.
Comrade, You did not use enough of the 7.62 ammunition on the Stukas, its the Gulag and potato for you.
Love the WW2 stuff 👍
Not gonna lie, I don’t want to imagine what it would be like to be in a plane spinning out of control so fast that you’re almost frozen in place, unable to easily bail out. Knowing seconds matter while they pass you by.
Day 30 part 2 of asking for a YF-12 video
What do you want him to shoot down with it? The YF-12 against the MiG-25 would be a snooze.
Maybe he can shoot down a couple of bomber formations with the AIR-2 Genie?
He replies to everyone else but this brilliant idea 😔🫡
Is YF-12 even in DCS?
I keep hoping for a mig19 vs Mirage F1 vid....
Great video, but how did you get such a big sandboxish battlefield to play with in IL2? Is this a custom mission?
Pls answer cause this look more fun than I usually have trying my hand at mission editor stuff lol
Could be with pat wilson generator. Free hunt mission
That was awesome. More of that please 👍
Nice landing at the end!!
Keep up ww2 stuff!
It’s amazing!
It'd be nice to see a pacific theater one sometike
What about an F8 Crusader from the Vietnam era!!????
2 videos in 1 day? Is it Christmas already?!?!?
Yaks were incredible fighters at low and medium altitudes, especially the Yak-3. Not stellar higher than 15k feet though…
That's 1944... this Yak-1 was....a bit underwheliming
@@milanprica7513 yeah, unfortunately after stalingrad, I’m sure the 3 would have been quite the asset then.
Love the IL-2 videos and you flying for Soviets. Less popular opinion im sure.
Is it Oil, or powder residue from the nose guns, the FW-190 does the same thing.
The entire eastern front campaign was savage, Stalingrad just happened to be more crucial than most.
I don’t play DCS yet due to real life stuff but my god how awesome would an F-8 Crusader be?? Seeing as they call it and pretty accurately “the last of the gun fighters” I’d turn a flip if we could see that!! Anyone else agree?
Here I am, about to go to bed and I see a GS vid and think to myself, "I'll just see which Yak he's flying in that then I'll go to bed and watch tomorrow after work." Silly me.
"Here I am in the Yak."
WHICH ONE!! They only made about 687 different versions.
Loooool yak1 I think mate
@@GrowlingSidewinder yeah that makes sense. I figured it might be some version of Yak 9 maybe? I don't know much about the Soviet fighters honestly. Was the Yak 3 in service yet?
5000 th like, youre welcome ! Nice Vid´s at all, cant get enough
I would like to start playing in VR, WWII in particular but know nothing about what equipment I'll need. Any recommendations would be appreciated. Thanks yankeeclipper
Would like to see a Yak-3 video, best WW2 Soviet fighter
MC 202 video would be a pleasure although I seem to love all your vids. Wish they had the 205 in IL2. Do you so you keep enjoying making videos, you make a lot of people happy.
Amazing video!!
Love WW2 VIDEOS
In reality, very few Soviet soldiers ended up being shot as a result of Soviet Order 227. From memory, I think the number was a few thousand. And while that may sound like a lot, it was a few thousand out of several million soldiers deployed to the German front.
Hi I was wondering what stick you use for the ww2 air craft
More IL2 please, and longer vids?
GS - EuroFighter vs Bandit Unknown ... I think id jizz my pants for that vid LOL
The canon of this aircraft seems to do nothing at all ^^ it's so frustrating
Agreed. Just feels like another 7.62 lol
You should fly the IL-20.
Just Rember any that do not return home is a loss.
