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.

@DynoosHD Жыл бұрын

Try to keep more distance. You will see it will be a lot easier. Around 10MN is a good start distance. In the moment you are at the minimum distance for the MAV. The best is to fly parallel along the front line and switch between left and right side, to engage all the time.

@deadpxl Жыл бұрын

Was going to point this out as well, the tank at the 7:30 mark he's off target because he fires two mavs under minimum range. Also, he should use china hat forward long to have the mav auto-slew to the SPI rather than trying to manually swing it all the way over. Still great to see some A-10 and CAS love on the channel!

@MrWigglesWorth Жыл бұрын

Its a good point about how Air-To-Ground seems simple, but has a ton of nuance that makes it challenging. I've heard from actual A-10 drivers that they think a big reason the ground troops love the A-10 so much isn't just the capabilities of the planes themselves, but the expertise of the A-10 pilots in CAS. The A-10 has its special quirks for sure (BRRRRT), but pretty much every fighter in the US inventory can deliver bombs, JDAMs, LGBs, Mavericks, rocket pods, etc. But when its an F-16 or F/A-18 or something, you've got a pilot who splits their training time between the many different roles those planes fill. They've got anti-air missions they need to be ready for too, and even within the broader realm of ground attack, its not just CAS, there's also SEAD, strategic strikes, etc. When its an A-10, that pilot is training not just for ground attack, but almost exclusively for CAS in particular. So when ground troops call for CAS, if its an A-10 answering, that ordinance often gets delivered faster and more accurately.

@JebHoge Жыл бұрын

It'd be interesting to hear if A-10 pilots who transition to other platforms lose that air-to-mud/CAS expertise or not.

With the mavericks, try to always aim at the wheels or the base of the target. The maverick basically locks onto coordinates. If there is any altitude (meaning you lock onto the top of the target) maverick locks onto the coordinates behind the target, on the ground. The targeting line of the missile always locks onto the ground. So if you aim at the top of the target, the targeting line passes through the target to the ground behind it.

@@GrowlingSidewinder AG, the main task is the target and not to hit any of your own forces - or civilians - and to waste as few weapons as possible. In practice, a single attack will be coordinated multiple times with the troops on the ground. When the attack starts, the guys on the ground know and stick their heads in the sand :-). You don't spend too much time circling over the combat area in search of targets. In practice, the targets are defined by the ground forces, coordinated several times and then quickly in and quickly out. Nice Vid i love the chanel and i like toe see more AG. :-)

just a little hint, if you bind your tgp-slew to an axle, it will be more precice, don´t use digital inputs for it, makes your day/night harder^^ great video, as someone mentioned, you didn´t use the a-10 in a while. if you have the c-2 version of it, you also can use the helmet mounted display, which makes life for you in the a-10 so much easier^^ but i guess, you know that already. ^^

It must be a very impressive and scary moment to have an A 10 circling overhead like a hawk looking for prey. In the Bundeswehr, we had once practiced on a training ground with TPZ Fuchs armored transport vehicles when a group of A10s began using us as training targets. The warthogs' agility and speed alone were terrifying. In an emergency, they would have made kitchen colanders out of our armored transport vehicles.😬
