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.

I've definitely seen the flanker datalink display missiles as very fast contacts. I don't know exactly why but it does happen, probably because the AWACS can pick up the missile and sends that to DL if I had to guess. I've never had it happen in a mission without AWACS.

Indeed the Flanker datalink sees missiles as hostile contacts, at least the ones big enough (such as AIM-54). Also you didn't see the last bandit because you were scanning in -1 and 0 so basically level and under you, and he was above. If you scanned +1 (maybe +2) you would've seen him straight away, keep an eye on those crosswise lines on the datalink contact :)

@iyhan1987 Жыл бұрын

9:30 you can figure it out by looking on your RWR, if the signal is strong, missile is first one and near by. If signal is weak and increases rapidly, it means amraam went pit bull a moment ago and it is a new one. 8:44 same think. RWR signal has just the half of strength and not changing. It means that missile is not too close to you and already has the same speed as you do, and getting slower and slower cause of the drag. So it is beaten already

12:02 Yes, the Datalink sees the missiles. They appear as hostile contacts with a SUPER LONG longitudinal vector (because, you know, they're missiles, so they go SUPER FAST). The datalink treats ALL missiles as hostile contacts, even missiles from friendly units. And it makes sense, because they're... well... MISSILES. They're dangerous.

Hey GS, I've seen a lot of missiles being recognised as hostile aircrafts on the russian datalink, they can be very confusing at times, sometimes I'd be chasing down a missile only to find out it's a missile after many attempts of trying to lock onto them which the radar cannot give you the option to lock them. The worst part of this issue is that if you happen to assume a datalink contact as a missile because they're flying high and fast, things become dangerous because one of those "missiles" started to turn around towards you, then it turns out it's either a F15 or F14😂😂

Great video GS! Question. If you are defending, why are you not waiting for the enemy aircraft to violate the border before engaging? I know this is for fun but what I saw was you violating another country's airspace (crossing the river), shooting down an aircraft on patrol, without cause or provocation and then continue that engagement across the boarder into your airspace. If the F-16's shot at you first then this would be reason to engage them. But they didn't. In peace time you would not shoot down another aircraft until it crosses the boarder (KISS), the river in this case. You just created an international incident and started a world war. lol Fantastic video GS! You always put 100% into each video, you explain what's going on and 1 point of interest in each aircraft.
