    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.

      You can definitely see where the Hornet pilot made a mistake of their own at 13:20, when they reverse after overshooting. That mistake of course proves to be fatal since GS hits a shot in the very next turn. It probably would have been better to either go up or stay in the rate fight, but I'm guessing they didn't realize they'd overshot until it was too late.

    I really like the videos where you fly Russian aircraft.
    I just think that its important for people to realize that Russia does make formidable aircraft. Its not like the tv, movies or literature, where they get shot down by the dozens and never stand a chance. they are actually quite formidable and almost always comes down to the skill of the pilots.
    Russian pilots are getting a hell of a lot more stick time these days too.

    • @dimitri1154
      @dimitri1154 Před 8 měsíci +21

      The Flanker is an amazing platform. The fact that it's been heavily modernized into the Su 35, Su 30, Su 34 replacing pretty much all other fighter types is the clearest indicator of that.
      I concur, love these videos! l as well!

    • @Greasy__Bear
      @Greasy__Bear Před 8 měsíci +18

      It's not just the movies. they also get thier misconceptions from wars with third world countries.
      f15s have shot down alot of 3+ and early 4th gen soviet planes wit 40 year old missiles, flown by pilots with less than a quarter of the flight hours of the average russian pilot. US pilots manage this feat with 4+ generation fighters with the latest and greatest missiles.

    Do you feel a significant difference between between something like the typical Western Vulcan cannon vs. a Russian GSh-30-1? I'm pretty new to this whole DCS thing. On paper, their firing rates and calibers are obviously much different, but as a casual viewer they all just look like brrrrap dead.

    • @GrowlingSidewinder
      @GrowlingSidewinder  Před 8 měsíci +5

      Well it seems u have a better chance of hitting with the Vulcan 20mm cuz of its spread. But the 30mm on the flankers and migs means 1 hit generally finishes the fight. Not always the case with the 20mm. So both have their own pros and cons

    • @Prophet-of-the-Unknown-Lord
      @Prophet-of-the-Unknown-Lord Před 8 měsíci +3

      Having mainly flown the Su-27, the F-14, and F/A-18 (with the Flanker being the one I know best), I definitely prefer the GSh-30-1. It's lethal if you score a hit, and well, I find it way easier to put rounds on target with it. I find its pipper to be more stable than US ones, and also simpler especially compared to the Hornet. Maybe it's just a matter of habit, but I don't like the 20mm much.
