    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.

      I joke. Great idea though. It complicates things that the Su-30SM doesn’t carry the R-37M like Su-35/Su-57 can and the best missile it can carry (in DCS) is the R-77M. Makes things a challenge at range for the Su-30! Hopefully GS will do this! I for one really enjoy the longer range engagements and wish we could get more of them.

    This video just shows the stealth capabilities of both aircraft. Notably, the F 22. It is interesting that the missiles missed the aircraft by inches. In my opinion, the reduced radar cross section of the F 22 and it's fifth gen engine design played a vital role in keeping GS alive. Honestly, I'm amazed to see this fight.

      The first production model of SU 57 has the RCS around 0.01m2 (as size of the human fist) so it slightly/improved its RCS by applying 30% RAM coating on it, but still it has no stealthily as the F22 or F35 which as the RCS around 0.005m2 (as the size of a pinball F35) and 0.0001m2 (as the size of a humming bird F22). But still SU 57 has upgrade 6 radar that may able to detect stealth planes at a close range with the help of L and X band which has more stronger EW and ECM jammer frequency (SU 57 has stronger frequency and slightly improved EW and ECM jamming system than the F22 but still the F22 has an advance EW system making slightly advantage for F22) that can jam the radar and radio signals from enemy aircraft. Even that SU 57 has 2 DIRCM that was made to dodge or outtake an infrared missile with or without using flare, then SU 57 has IRST aka OLS 50M with range of 100 range to detect the heat signature of stealth fighter and the degrees of radius around 90* and 180* is able to look on side ways and up ways to find the heat signature of enemy fighter. So yes the first production model of SU 57 is improves a lot, but still it needs to improve it.

Entering visual range is a failure mode for BVR strategy and tech, and it is a failure mode you can readily expect when you pit two similarly matched systems _against_ each other.

  • @mortlet5180
    @mortlet5180 Před rokem +12

    11:54 The reason is that the Felon was in a slightly nose-down attitude, decreasing its altitude, which the AMRAAM just blindly copies by holding a constant LOS (or, more correctly, minimizing the time derivative of the size of the angle along its LOS to the target).
    It's similar to why you can 'drive' all Fox-3 missiles (in DCS) into (even completely flat) terrain, because ED either believes that missiles shouldn't have full 6-DOF IMU's, nor be able to measure or calculate their altitude via any other means (except for specific lofting logic, I guess?), or just doesn't want to implement some basic ground-avoidance logic.
    Furthermore, since even the most advanced AAMs (in DCS) still use a variable-gain PN guidance law (which *only* uses LOS rate and closure velocity information, with range just acting to vary the gain), together with an attitude control system that is little more than a PID controller extended with simple linear filters, and a (very strangely implemented) Kalman state estimator.
    This results in wasteful damped oscillations about the commanded attitude and is also why the AMRAAM does this weird endgame manuever where it will suddenly pull into the target, even if it has a good speed advantage and the target is flying straight and level. It doesn't even calculate the most efficient path to the most likely impact point (which would end in a straight line for a non-maneuvering target).
    I would *love* to have missiles (or even just the ability to enable an option which allows us to use missile mods with custom guidance and control laws ) that only cache in their energy when they need to, that calculate an optimal flight altitude depending on the target's parameters and that don't *easily* run into the ground.
    Even if the missile has to break lock and use up some energy to pop up, then start scanning around the predicted target direction to re-acquire the lock, which will obviously lower its Pk, that's still infinitely better than running into the ground miles away from the target.

      @@johnclark6139 I had a bunch of control systems modules at uni, but the basics really aren't that difficult.
      Start with any decent introductory textbook on linear, continuous time invariant control (think S-transform and the graphical Root Locus).
      If maths *really* isn't your thing, you can still use the old graphical design techniques, but you will want to use something like Matlab and Simulink to do the System Identification and Verification for you.
      Then you can simply adjust your control law and have Simulink calculate and visually show you the closed loop response.

    So here's a video idea: Fight something with much longer range missiles than you, have something with a lot of amraams, and intentionally try to close in for the kill not by defending against his missiles but by shooting them all down. Figure out if that actually works well enough to use.
