Agreed, it didn't seem like either of them were communicating in the first round at all, and their lift vector placement was not correct for where they were in the fight. That's on top of merging at 500+ knots. The cat should be able to turn inside or equal to the f16 and he just stayed in their circle the whole time.
@ZioWillY eeh maybe irl, in DCS a clean f15 outrates it not sure about the cat anymore but last i checked the performance bands overlaped pretty evenly with the viper winning in climb and roll rate. Of the 4th gen fighters, the hornet, m2k the f15 and the su27 have better performance in the rate while clean.
I like the multiple POVs! I'm also impressed that you were able to survive at slow speeds like that. I always think of getting slow as a bit of a death sentence for the viper
I'd love to see you doing this in an F-15, seeing how much time you spent mastering that plane. That said, this is was still really fun to watch. Keep up the great content!
This was amazing, I love the dynamics change in a 2 VS 1 engagement. Perhaps you could organize an event were you can recreate some events with outnumbered fights, I know is not easy to do, but it would be awesome watching battles like that with all human piloted fighters.
These fights are good study in energy awareness and closure management. As we can see here, numbers can't make up for your opponent being better at that than you.
One F-16 vs. two F-5s at some point? The battle of the light fighters. Alternately, a face off between the evolution of the LWF competition. The F-16 vs. two F/A-18(C) Hornet, because the Hornet A probably isn't available.
I wish I had the time and hardware to play DCS. I have a lot of time in combat flight sim and, when you are outnumbered, you need to take your shots quick and move on. If you are trailing the same guy for more than 30 seconds, you are about to explode. With the right plane matching 9:1 matches are doable.
That was entertaining... did Akagi and Rechsmarschal have voice comms? Good timing on the bandit switch. Seemed to get just a little unlucky in the gunnery department tho. Dunno if you're running VR, but try angling off just a touch and looking around the side of the instrument panel on your lead turns -- you can take a bigger bite earlier while keeping tally.
Seems like it might be Akagi's first time playing the F14 or he really doesn't have a lot of knowledge in it. He doesn't even try to lock you up before using guns. He's just wildly spraying all over the place and flying laps around because he doesn't know how to use the jet whatsoever.
I was wondering why they didn't use the old F4 tactics. But looking back, they may have been trying to, using it against someone who can outrate you just doesn't work very well

It's all tactics. A 2 V 1 is nothing if they do not play as a team. Guaranteed if they played as a team they would wipe you in a couple of minutes.

@@Thorn19774mmmhh with the cat you should always prefer a 1 circle against the Viper, that thing is the king of rate fighting mate 😅

That last overshoot went from "he's on our twelve shoot him" to "he's on our six he's gonna shoot" real fast. Beautiful job !
i don't know what magic your videos have but i love the fact that they are picture in picture, they're just perfect
Thank you
For a long time I have believed that F-16 was good because it was cheap. You and GS showed me it's good cause it's good.
It _is/was_ cost-effective, _and_ it is a formidable multirole fighter. The USAF and other customers got a lot of bang for their buck with the Viper.
HOLY CRAP! That last fight was a masterclass in the F-16’s Dog Fighting capabilities.
Excellent baits and jinks by the F-14 pilots. That pilot snipe at the end was crisp.

That's what i was talking about!! The whole dinamic of the fight CHANGES! A 2x2 would be interesting also! Great vídeo man!
Thank you
that overshoot in the last round was absolutely beautiful.
perfect timing for a quick double kill
That camera shot at 12:06 was =chefs kiss=
Thank you for using tracers with the Viper! Really makes it more visual!
4:50 Jester saying, "We've been hit! We've been hit" reminded me of Top Gun when Wood got shotdown "Wood's been Wood's been! We've lost Hollywood"
That was exhilarating stuff, great video Longshot. Looking forward to the next one.
Thank you very much

This series is a really dope concept. Would love to see it in a modern dogfight or modern BVR conditions
I can’t get enough of this series!
Thank you buddy
Awesome fights, especially round 3!
Well, the wait was worth it! That last kill, you should change your callsign to "Guillotine".
Round 3 was totally awesome. Keep doing these types of videos!
it was a good fight man!
Yeah it was. Thanks for the help
Some of those F-14 camera angles reminded me of the old Sega Afterburner game.
Tons of action in this vid. Nice!

Most aggressive DCS dogfight I've seen and it's beautiful.
This was one of your best videos as of yet 👍🏿
Thank you very much
Really intense video Longshot, please make more of these! Stay safe Sir!
Thank you, you too buddy
Looks great! Awesome! I'd like to see you go head to head in the F-16 Fighting Falcon vs your buddy at Growling Sidewinder.
Exciting! Thanks Headshot!
I see what you did there
Awesome! Thanks Longshot and guest pilots!
Those 3 rounds were great fights. Awesome.
Your best video yet!
Thank you

Now that was INTENSE!!
the power of the Viper is incredible
Last fight was a masterpiece. 😮
Impressive fight! Well done!
That was so good I watched it twice. It was so intense, I nearly wet myself!

they were human... but they weren't friends with each other. lol
BEAUTIFUL!
I love these 2 vs 1 vids
Awesome video.

Now show us attack helicopter BFM 😆
Good show LS as always! ❤
My first time seeing the f16 with gun tracers
its an option in the rearm menu
4-1.
Nice flying.
Talk about awesome! Triple
I prefer Longshot in a Flanker, but this will do 😁
MIG23 Vs F14

Those guys got skill, but they were outmatched and outnumbered by you
Akagi seems to be the less experienced.
wouldn't a Thach Weave be ideal two on one or is it to difficult to maintain at jet speeds?
Goddamn Longshot, now you've really pissed me off.
It's fights, not fight's!!!!!!
Ok. I'll leave at as is
@@LongShotChannel ;-)
That was fun
It wasnt exacly 2v1. More like 1v1v1
More pleazzzzzz....?2vs 1
poor bro got all the bots in the comments
That is the worst. I keep reporting every bot, but it seems the amount is never over
@@LongShotChannel keep going sisyphus
Reichsmarschall= " rikes marshall "
Yanking And Banking!!!!!
How do you pronounce Herman Goring's rank? That's the name of your opponent.
I’ve always pronounced it as:
Rikes-Marshall
Oh top gun vs newbs. Wish the ps5 would've been powerful enough. To dcs in some form. But it looks like ima divorce
