    I'm an analyst, who does a lot of modeling and simulation for the USAF. I went through the fighter pilot debrief process when I was running war games at Air Force Research Lab with a bunch of fighter and bomber people. It was fun to run the scenario, talk it through, try again, etc. etc. Each time we figured out some new things. It was a great experience. Thanks for making that kind of process public. The world could benefit from more of that kind of candid critique.

      I have a question, which is maybe a little academic, but it goes with my professional reading. In Fighter Combat: Tactics and Maneuvering by Shaw, he talks about a nose-to-tail and nose-to-nose fight. Do those correspond to your "two circle" and "one circle" fights?

    • @zhousaifuzhousaifu3055
      @zhousaifuzhousaifu3055 5 лет назад

      Hansang Bae Gods G is utilizing gravity during the turn, i.e, having greater turn performance in a descent versus in a climb because in a descent you can generally maintain airspeed while loading the jet up with g-loading whereas if you were to try and load the plane up during a climb, you burn off your energy quicker due to going up and against the force of gravity.

  • @CallsignJoNay
    @CallsignJoNay 5 лет назад +3

    Mover, when approaching pre-merge do you try to be aware of your opponent's smash through a radar lock or some other means? Is the objective to merge with a higher energy state or is it better to merge with a relatively equal one? I ask because of what happened in the 2nd set when Wags merged with greater E and you went 1-circle which put him at a disadvantage. Should he have matched your Mach (indicated in the FCR) pre-merge to anticipate a possible reversal to 1-circle, or is it better to always merge with greater E and then redefine the fight vertically if your opponent goes 1-circle with the tighter radius? Thanks.

    • @stuge2589
      @stuge2589 5 лет назад +2

      I can tell how I do it: I usually mirror the opponent's entry speed, but with a "twist": just slightly slower than him (perhaps 20-30 kts slower) :) This way I can make that radius bite (often with a vertical initial move) if I want to, but if that's not feasible, I can somewhat match the bandit's energy state and have all the other options to continue the fight - including preserving the energy state if my opponent gets too greedy and bleeds all their speed! But sometimes against more advanced opponents the mirroring speeds strategy doesn't work (they may be so aggressive it results in too many risky head-on confrontations) - in this case I might bait the opponent into slowing down before merging, only to hit full afterburner a bit before merge, aiming for a significant 100+ kts speed difference, which then will allow a spiral climb that the opponent will not be able to follow. This tactic is very specific to a guns only scenario as these "energy games" are very dangerous if all aspect heatseekers are involved, not even mentioning the high off boresight stuff. And then there are the very few rare ultra capable pilots who will merge with you at ridiculous 600+ kts speeds, ignore the angles fight altogether (initially), blow through with a high climb, making it easy to lose sight, and if you don't, they'll lure you into following them up with inferior energy, convert that energy difference into a nice position for them, slap you around, and finish you off eventually. I have trouble dealing with these types.

Can my aircraft pull this off without entering any disadvantages it may have? Did I/he initiate the turn too early or too late? This debrief looks SO detailed, one would think every G counts. Amazing.

    Is everything always measured in CAS for debrief in the military? Or is that only because the Hornet isn't registering IAS for some reason? The differences between CAS and IAS, at least on the Tiger, are significant at sometimes. I feel like that fact alone makes speed measurement difficult to really critique.
