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.

The air frame of the MiG-21 has really beaten the test of time. I think that speaks volumes for the engineers that built it. They were limited by technology that was available to them at the time. Slap some modern avionics and a more efficient/powerful engine in there, and all of a sudden the scales start to move. That was really an impressive fight from the MiG. Who'd of thought an air frame from the 1950's with modern everything strapped to it could keep an F-16 at bay for that long?

I came in to this video expecting to be watching from the mig perspective, and thought we're in for a 5 fight sealclubing video, and was absolutely shocked when the mig made it in to freaking gun range with the f16 down to fox2s. The mig21 bison has just gained a fan with me.

@wigger88 Жыл бұрын

Air fights now-a-days are 90% about electronic and missile capabilities. I kinda already knew the MIG was gonna lose simply because less hard points. Although, like GS points out, the Bison definitely shouldn't be discounted. It has the goods to fight other 2nd tier military jets for sure. I would definitely like to see a US F16 take it on. The more modern AMRAMs might make the MIG's lifespan a little shorter.

@@thystaff742 this is the thing, mig21 is cheaper than f16, back in 1970, 80s, all these migs, mig23, mig21, would overhelm the western airforces.. and would be used doctrinally correct-this one on one would be against soviet doctrine, .. its about striking from below, so radar can't see, lots of jamming so awacs doesn't help, and since migs are cheaper you will outnumber enemy in potential fight. overall, better strategy i think.

@kurousagi8155 Жыл бұрын

I think the MiG-21UPG managed to survive the F-16C for so long because the scenario is a dog fight. I think the MiG-21UPG’s Kopyo radar range is 57km and the F-16C’s AN/APG-68 is nearly 300km. Historically, western equipped air forces have made short work of MiG-21s, MiG-23s, and MiG-29s.

A couple of comments about 1950's engineering. Those were the WWII generation who took us to the moon. They really knew what they were doing. I know there is no F-106 available on DCS, but I think you would be shocked if there were. The engineers back then actually expected their missiles to HIT the enemy aircraft, not just get near it. I know the Vietnam era Sparrows were considered junk, but that was problems interfacing to the F-4 electronics. The same missiles from a 106 had none of those problems. There is an interview with a 106 pilot about shooting down a mach 2.5 Bomarc coming head on, in a test, with a contact fused Sparrow. The plane and Sparrow were chosen at random.. The 106 is the fastest single engine plane ever built.

What the MiG 21s did at that time, made the US to come up with a whole new generation of Teens. That's how capable they were. Given the modernisation by India, I would believe their version of the story that the Bison shot down the Viper with the eyewitnesses account describing the ejection chute colour which actually is from an F16.

interesting to note is that during operation frequent wind ( the evacuation of Saigon during Vietnam) the always beautiful F-14 made its first debut providing escort to the helicopters and although Tomcat did not see any action against the North Vietnam Mig 21s it would have been an interesting match up to say the least given that the F-14 did not likely have its AIM 54s or the other equipment later on that made it so lethal so maybe a DCS fight with A mig 21 against the early Tomcat unless its been done already

I imagine (much like say, the Sea Harrier) the MiG-21 has a smallish radar cross section because of its size despite its age. Radar still largely depends on physics where reflected energy is based on output power divided by distance^4 with RCS being an important factor. That's why countries are leaning into stealth. RCS is the only factor of that equation you can really control.

i love watching your fox-3 bvr fights..do an f-16 vs mutiple chinese bandits over mountain terrain

@SabertoothedFrostbite Жыл бұрын

I really wish you would fly aircraft like the mig 21 in these videos instead of just flying the F-16 every time

@CGoody564 Жыл бұрын

I wonder what the cost/benefit ratio is upgrading an older jet like the mig21 compared to building a new one.

The first aim9 looked like it ran out of propellant just before impact and fell behind. Wonder if the guidance computer takes that into account cos it seemed like it was accelerating to the target then suddenly lost thrust at the last second. Could it have taken a different intercept path if it knew it would be gliding at the final seconds?

@GrowlingSidewinder Жыл бұрын

well missiles deff understand that they will be gliding, amraams and other fox3s only burn for 7-12 seconds max, they use whatever kinetic energy they have at that point to hit the target. So the guidance is not dependent on burn, the missile is constantly trying to intercept regardless of energy state.

The Indians fly their Mig21s along with their Su-30MKIs. Its a very interesting combo with the Mig21 being almost invisible to radar and the Su-30MKI having a massive radar and jammer.

It's possible, idk why people keep thinking aircraft like the Bison can't keep up with 4th generation aircraft. It's about skill and training of the pilot. Anything can smoke another.

Lately the Fox 3 missiles have been extremely ineffective in the videos. I guess so long as you respect the MAR and you are a really experienced pilot the kill chance is almost 0. And since you have consistently been adding SAMs to the matches the MAR is always tiny. It does raise a real world question as to why the US hasn't developed the FMRAAM or at least something like Meteor, that ramjet design turns any plane into a Mig-31 interceptor level of BVR threat.

Yet it is believed that modern dog fights wont happen because of stealth and BVR...At 20 miles, stealth jets are no longer stealthy from that close range.

@Thomas-fz9xw Жыл бұрын

They actually did develop something like that--the AIM-152. But funding collapsed when the Soviet Union did. After that, the US fought almost exclusively non-peer enemies, and developed stealth aircraft that closed the range gap. It's only recently that they started developing new long-range missiles due to near-peer threats.
