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.

Epic gameplay you made since you nearly got killed in 1:48 by gunfire. This has the most intensive BVR combat I've ever seen with an element of surprise at the end! I thought you would easily fail your survival on 2 flankers. It made me suggest for the 36th time for you to do a BVR and dogfight gameplay of a MiG-29 vs Su-57 Felon to test their different capabilities with your skills. Great flying GS! You still did great despite this ending!
