Il be honest, i generally start in the air and hit escape once me or the other guys are dead.

😂😂😂

Love that quote! Funny movie 😅

"Ah I look out there on all you wonderful guys and I say to myself "what I wouldnt give to be 20 years younger....and a woman!"" also Admiral Benson (my favorite Character)! Hotshots, Hotshots 2, Naked Gun those were the "gag every minute" comedy Movies and boy do I miss those.

Every time I hear "Hello valued viewers!".... I think of Hotshots briefing room

Yup this is a thing.

Weirdly enough same thing happens in war thunder (as brokem as it was, it used to at least get this right)

@@aitorbleda8267 War thunder doesnt have bvr missiles though right? isn't it only fox 1's?

😂😂😂😂

Russia’s natural enemy is incompetence

I pretty sure Cap secretly changed all the SU35s to Balloon - to add realism

@@dexlab7539 99 luftballons! 🎈

The problem with this video is that su35 would have won in equal numbers .

Couldn't agree more no more humans!

Simba honestly so fucking annoying in this video

Humans just knowingly (or subconsciously) will exploit any weakness in the system. Like Birderino knowing the aircraft were programmed not to defend themselves after they were out of AIM-260s. After the 30:00 mark, he was surrounded by at least 7 F-22s with active Aim-9Xs that would have had a collective kill rate of around 1100% as all of them would have been targeting his one aircraft.

That applies to literally every modern plane. Dogfighting is not what modern planes are made for.

@@cassius_eu5970 No it does not, first of all the inital quote likely refers to a non-peer enemy such as an enemy Su-27, not anything that can pose any sort of challenge to the Raptor like a Felon, also yes they are, the Flanker and F-15 and the Hornet all have significant capabilities in the Merge, so does the F-35 with it's ability to fire 9Xs in all directions and it's high AOA, and so does the F-16, no fighter plane has not been designed for the merge except the F-15E, which mostly serves as a self escort bomber and arguably the F-4 phantom, although the things that made it not good for the merge were very detrimental, basically, everything is designed for dogfighting because in every generation of air to air fighting so far we have had dogfights.

Or. Something very right

@@cassius_eu5970 F-16 was made precisely with dogfighting in mind.

Send the Foxhounds!!! 🐶

Ruzzians have shown they can't intercept shit! Ask Moscow or moskava! 😂 🌻 🌻

Most long range radars filter out contacts that small or they would be filled with clutter, that being said because the Raptor in artificially reducing its RCS it can still be detected depending on the circumstances and range.

It does not work like that

@@kwkfortythree39 What does it mean then?

But releasing all of those hundred jets are the worst war situation that the target can really not get out without exploding. During WW2, there were thousands of aircrafts been used but not as deadly as the present jet fighters. If Russia or China dares to go a mission using 100 of fighter jets, I assure you, that will be the nightmare of everyone of us not only to the target.

@@denverchin44 Modern air war is entirely different than WW2. Its not just the speeds and performance that is different its the communication and weapons systems that are. IFF is a major player, and when operating that many aircraft FF incidents become much more likely, its even happened to US aviators in the Gulf War. The real war for the air will be fought in space, where communication, navigation, and IFF systems are vulnerable, once those are gone the enemy is doomed.

@@Spartan536 Any country stupid enough to destroy enemy satellites is essentially destroying everything in orbit and trapping the entire human race within our atmosphere for centuries to come. Weapons capable of destroying satellites are no different than nukes, it'll be yet another spin on mutually assured destruction. We'll simply Kessler syndrome ourselves back to the 1950's.

Your last sentence is literally the setting for Ace Combat 7's final quarter: both sides of the war destroy each other's satellites, ruining command and IFF infrastructure and making it nigh-impossible to tell friend from foe without potentially eating a faceful of missiles and lead. @@Spartan536

That's a pretty fair statement

Nearly all his videos he is a participant… Even as a spectator, it’s extremely difficult to edit everything so it’s in line with what’s actually happening and include all the actions… Some were combined streams from each players pov… I can only remember one video that did that and it was nearly 4 hours long?

Sort of, but for 1v1 PvP battles Cap in the planes is fun too 😊

Impressive result all things considered Cap (even with 1 human vs. 3 humans). Take out the human advantage and they probably have a near-perfect win.

Yup, sometimes it just works. Not often...

Possibly.

The issue I see is any drone with, for example, range and speed to keep up with any mission would't be particularly cheap. Something like a Shahed is just a ghetto slow moving cruise missile.

We've not yet found a way in game.

actually u might have a point we don't have to worry about human wave tactics cause drone tech... but then we just have drones and we already kind of do that, we just need more drones.

Was it ever stated this was intended to _prove_ anything? Pretty sure the vid is just for an entertaining air battle.

ooof pricey...

Cool idea.

No, nothing in any country's arsenal has that ability. It would require full autonomy of the targeting computer, where the missile itself designates what it believes to be targets rather than the pilot. That could lead to a whole host of unintentional kills and friendly fire...it's akin to putting a gun into the hands of a computer or AI to use at its discretion with no oversight. Or sending a UAV out with no target in mind and programming it to simply shoot at anything that looks like a valid target, things could get real ugly real quick. The alternative would be to update the targeting computer remotely from the aircraft after a miss, though that in itself would have a host of logistical issues and technical challenges, including but not limited to enemies jamming that connection or hacking your missiles and diverting them to intercept your own aircraft. Then of course you have to consider that when a missile is closing in on a kill, it basically expends all of its speed, propellant, and kinetic energy to make that kill...particularly when talking about a long range missile that climbs to the upper atmosphere and dives down for the intercept, not unlike a miniature ICBM meant for aerial targets. After a miss, most of the ballistic advantage of a near-hypersonic missile is already spent, unless it was fired at a really close range in a last ditch effort, in which case it's unlikely there will be a secondary target with any intercept potential. It seems like a waste when you're watching them fly off harmlessly, and it would be great if there was a way to get a second chance out of a failed intercept, but current tech simply isn't there yet and the physics is against you right out of the box.

In reality, the J-20 is a 4.5 gen fighter at best. The F-15C is a 1980 aircraft. The best air superiority fighter in history is past it's prime. But with it's being flown by superior pilots, it could still punch a hole in a squadron of J-20. Because of it's age, it would probably lose but it would go down fighting and make the cost for China a pretty big one. Just replace them with a single F-22 squadron and what ever numbers of J-20 the Chinese could throw at them would be useless. They would all get shot down with very minimal loses to the F-22, if any. Chinese pilots don't even have retired pilots with combat experience they could learn from and their training isn't no where near as good or realistic as what American pilots go through. I have to laugh whenever I see people talking about aircraft vs aircraft. The aircraft involved have some to do with a fight but it's mostly decided by the pilots flying them. American pilots along with the Israeli pilots are the best in the world. I wouldn't count out an old F-15C flown by an American pilot against any enemy aircraft. Of course a F-22 flown by an American pilot, you have the best aircraft flown by the best pilots. That is an unbeatable situation against any other aircraft flown by any other pilot in the world.

Yes the missiles are added to the scoreboard when lost.

They would absolutely slag 100 enemy jets if human piloted. Just look how the one human player was able to draw out a full volley from the ai.

@@afterthefact6708 I'm sure they would do much better, but the PK is the hard part here and I'd be interested to see how much more efficient they were with missiles.

Thats generally done by the actual pilots, they call their targets. No human pilots would fire 5 missiles at 1 low flying plane.

Yeh that's a problem. The Su-35 version I've got is a private one and I've been asked not to share it sorry.

Got it cap, no issues your videos got me into Dcs world and I watch all your videos every step I take, Thanks much

roger will try.

Not to mention the fact that the 22 does have a fun an a human pilot would fight back rather than be duck shot by a flankers gun

I think they already did a battle like that. F15EX wins if I remember. Missile trucks can be very deadly.

The co pilot would be the super cruise / vectoring officer.

"Why are our wings sheared off?"
