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.

Way back in 1978 I got to go up in a real F16, I was 28 at the time and my mom's new husband was a Lt. Colonel in the Air Force. I was racing a 911RS in the SCCA at the time and thought that it would be interesting to experience some real G's...I sure did! These videos sure bring back my memory of that amazing experience.

That's an interesting story, but according to my research, the first production F-16 wasn't accepted by the Air Force until August 1978 and didn't become operational until January 1979. So either: 1.) The Air Force was allowing pilots to give joyrides to relatives in a completely brand-new aircraft that wasn't even operational yet, which strikes me as wildly irresponsible on their part. 2.) You've misremembered the date. 3.) The entire story is bulls***.

Great video as always. Would love to see the Viper vs the Rafale. It may not be able to outrate the Viper, but I think it'd be just as dangerous in the one circle, and much more capable than the Mirage in the two circle, with the added bonus of being able to pull off maneuvers that the Mirage just can't. It'd be a great fight!

Shotgun is pretty good in a one circle fight. I loved the way he flew the Flanker and the Mirage was flown quite well too. right now in a guns only dogfight, the Viper rules as it should. Maybe the Eurofighter changes it but until then, all hail the dogfight king, the F16C Viper.

Good one . Letting the opponent aircraft fight to their strength for a round is informative and interesting . Sometimes going into these is like " who's GS gonna beat up with the F16 this time " but this one wasn't . Having a good pilot like Shotgun validates the fight as to each aircraft strengths . Getting shot down by an F18 might be good in illustrating how quickly that aircraft can turn a fight . I do really like the F16 video's , that thing is a Ferrari .

The "six" couldn't handle a well flown eagle roughly - but vs overconfident nuggets in A model eagles it could. It definitely could handle an F4 in most flight regimes, if flown correctly. Unfortunately, everything the F106 brought to the table and was good at... the Mirage 2k is better at.

hell yeah loved this one. love the Mirage it's a tricky little bastard, those jinks definitely catch plenty of pilots off guard. But I knew you would know what to do. usually if I think an opponent is gonna drag me to the deck I just stay high and try to carefully draw in the bandit and jink him out of his boots. At least when that fails you still have some altitude to play with.
