Check out the Store: www.longshotstore.com/ Join the Discord channel: discord.gg/drNE6bT Hey guys! In this DCS World Simulator video I'm in the F16 Viper fighting against Chris in the SU30 Flanker in a BVR (Beyond visual range), Thanks Chris for the help on this one. I don't like to merge with a Flanker... Hope you guys enjoy!
LongShot, that's so awesome that you used an F-16 with the tail flash of my former unit, the 132FW. I was a maintainer for over 23-years, it's nice to see one of the jets I used to work on doing what it was meant to do.
I love your videos man. They are visually strong, have an interesting story and doesn't pick sides all the time. I find that liberating. It's like the proverbial box of chocolates. You never know what you're gonna get. :)
Great vid Longshot! Pity it ended the way it did. The F-16 realy is hampered by not having as many hardpoints that the bigger jets have so you cannot spam missiles nearly as much as the other guy.
Agreed ! Look I know GS is a great pilot, but LongShot has him in more than one category believe me ( especially the cinematography) The difference in subs just don’t make sense !
Very nice content, your cinematography is great. Nice attention to detailing the beauties of these jets as they soar towards the ground and above the silhouettes of those tree lines and of course the POV and close up shots were tip top.
God I love the F-16, I don’t care about all of its down sides, I don’t care how many times a flanker or F-22 will beat it in a dogfight, it’s by far my favorite jet. Thank you Longshot!! I always love watching your videos!
F-16 is a good and simple fighter As far as i know, F-16 was one of the most simplest jet to operate ever made and The first FBW jet in production, that's why one of its unofficial nickname is, The Electric Jet 😊
This is exactly what sims are for, learning how you die, get others on your side killed, so that you don't get their in real flying. Glad to hear you point that out Longshot, "We are here to have fun." So many gamers lose sight of that aspect. Have a great week!
I love to watching Longshot and his dude Growling Sidewinder. They never trying to be unbeaten. They mostly try to handle with difficult situations. 👏👏👏
That was sick. Dogfight happened largely because of the terrain which I maintain is going to be the cause for 90% of dogfights, the other 9% would likely be due to an accidental merge or something maybe stealth v stealth. Last maybe 1% would be due to even skill level. Just realistically the first fighter to go Winchester on Fox 3’s is gonna turn tail and run. Still so cool to see an organic BVR to BFM transition, you don’t see those every day.
That was REALLY cool, using the TGP- targeting pod That actually starts to help visualize why it's said aircraft who want to be sneaky can not use radar, and use FLIR/IRST/etc to watch and perform a intercept, all using infrared tech and weapons, without using radar so the other guy never knows they're there unless they look in their direction with radar You even saw his missile come off the rail and launch way before you picked up it's radar signals- talk about early warning! Hoping we eventually see a full stealth, sneak up on enemy opponent using Infrared tech only mission, and takeout - with any jet (since multiple have a pod or IRST option , etc)with infrared tech! For the end , i think your best bet would have been to stay in the deep ridges, and force him to chase you aroudn them LOW, so there'd be a high chance a Fox 2 would hit the ground ,etc- it's cheesy, but you had fired a missile when he hadn't so yeah, he didn't shoot his as soon likely...
Great video Longshot! I have been checking youtube every day now for your next video and tonight I felt, its Saturday, I am sure he has uploaded a new video and you had. I had to watch it before I go to bed - its 01.14 am here right now. Also I am loving the BVR fight! I am rubbish at it myselfe as I am either way too defensive or too agressive so I end up running away or dying....
Awesome video man!!! I really like that with your channel, you also post a lot of the losses as well. And that's cool!!! I really like GS videos as well, but rarelly posts his losses like this and we all know in DCS no matter how good you are... shit happens! Anyway thank you for the gameplay, Ive hed real fun with this one, such a cool transition
"Breaking!! Breakiiing!!... We've lost LongShot!!, I repeat, LongShot has been hit" whahaha Awesome great fight Buddy. The way you dogde those missiles is outstanding 😁🤙 In terms of WVR, F-16 is a badass jet, but perhaps, to take down the flanker family, well BVR is a good option. Those Flankers are break dancer 🤙 Great fight my friend, Awesome 🤙
Wow! Heluva fight! Kudos to Chris. That's about the best use of a Flanker I have ever seen. I felt your pain LS as the ending became inevitable...but I was pulling for you nonetheless!
Beautiful cinematics man, as well as serious show of technical skills from both pilots. Great vid my man. Pretty exciting for BVR bro. That was a hard f'n fight. Even tho you ate that missile, that might be one of my favorite fights that you've put on killer!
Your style of video with the flybys and the outboard cameras showing the missile launches and dodging with all the extra angles are the best on the internet by far!!!!!! Excellent content my friend!!!!
Intensity was off the charts from the get-go, you 2 made for a nerve-wracking fight to the end and once again all delivered in an easy-to-digest way, awesome!
Can't win 'em all especially when it takes a split second for things to go wrong. A nail-biter to the end. Another good one, LS and kudos to Chris, great flying!
One of the most excited BVR fights I watched in long time. I am glad that you did not won in the end because you had your mistakes and Flanker flow better.
I was amazed how that last Fox 3 fired at you was so ineffective at low altitudes. Based on the looks of it, the missile didn't have the momentum (turning with you but way too slow to close distance) but it was good for make you run out of CM. It was also a surprise to me that the Flanker only did that cobra nose poiting sh*t after a couple of one circle passes. Such moves are usually made at merge when there's still energy to try it.
When are you going to post this video:: (NGAD 6th Generation vs Iranian SU-35 Flanker-E | Intercept | Digital Combat Simulator | DCS ) so we can see your perspective of the fight.
Yeah, but the Indians have the way upgraded variant of the Su-30. Meanwhile the Pakistanis have the way worse variant of the F-16 compared to the USAF F-16s. Edit: Why did I forgot the plural nouns 🗿
@@luongduc9119 Pakistan is no more relying on USA in terms of upgradation of F-16s. That's why Pakistan has aquired fighters from china, and plans to totally replace F-16s with J-10Cs and JF-17s Block 3 variants.
Great fight. So, 10-to-15-year-old version of Su-30SM with R-77-1 missiles of roughly the same age and "Bars" radar is more or less evenly matched with F-16 (was it a relatively new version, like Block 70?).

I don't like to merge with a Flanker...
Hope you guys enjoy!
Su 30 vs j10c
Long Shot how about a dedicated intro with a moment from one of your fights or a real life incident
Thanks so much!
Glad you liked it, and there will be more for sure
Even thought the fight ended in a loss, the video has a ton of good information. Great work guys. Big thanks to the Flanker driver.
Thanks budddy, and It's great to hear that
great moment of inspiration…. great fight, great realism…. level 99

Cool
But he did get it blown up. .... Lol
@@Steve_Hayden it's a video game
@@tanmaymishra100 Yes, I'm aware it's a video game. Hence the laughing at the end
LS, Love the outside view of the cockpit and your other camera angles. it's original and creative.
Thank you
man the bubble canopy of the f-16 is just an absolute wonder
Absolutely crushed it LS. I love the BVR into Dogfight engagements. Keep up the good work 🫵
always love it when Longshot drops another video, very nice video!
Thank you, thank you
I love your videos man. They are visually strong, have an interesting story and doesn't pick sides all the time.
I find that liberating. It's like the proverbial box of chocolates. You never know what you're gonna get. :)
Lol, thanks, thats nice to hear
Great vid Longshot! Pity it ended the way it did. The F-16 realy is hampered by not having as many hardpoints that the bigger jets have so you cannot spam missiles nearly as much as the other guy.
sad that long only has 50k subs
so sub to longshot
I really appreciate it brother! Thanks
@@LongShotChannel don't stop with the content keep the stuff up
Agreed ! Look I know GS is a great pilot, but LongShot has him in more than one category believe me ( especially the cinematography) The difference in subs just don’t make sense !
@@CapSalty both are fucking cool but sadly long doesn't get as much attention

Thanks. Glad you liked it
I love your editing style. Those up close and personal shots are very cool
Thanks
been waiting for you to upload and man it was worth the wait! that was super spicy!
Thank you!
God I love the F-16, I don’t care about all of its down sides, I don’t care how many times a flanker or F-22 will beat it in a dogfight, it’s by far my favorite jet.
Thank you Longshot!! I always love watching your videos!
Thanks so much man. Thats great to hear
I have the same feeling towards Su-27

No man, Im sure in the future you going to fine at BVR.. just keep doing it
Tons of suspense! Loved it keep it up man!
That was a great fight. I bet the other guy felt relieved when his fox 2 hit.
Awesome video man!!! I really like that with your channel, you also post a lot of the losses as well. And that's cool!!!

Love the way you edit your fights, always so engaging to watch. Keep it up! o7
A 132nd Wing Viper.... (used to be an F-16 unit.... They got switched over to Predators a few years back)
Wow what a fight!! Awesome when a bvr ends up in a knife fight. Thanks for the video!!
Thanks
9:19 imagine if every fighter pilot has this kinda spirit xd. Much love dude 🤙🏼
Wow! Heluva fight! Kudos to Chris. That's about the best use of a Flanker I have ever seen. I felt your pain LS as the ending became inevitable...but I was pulling for you nonetheless!
4:57 that AMRAAM was like, JA! I SEE HIM! (From the ultimate Holiday movie, Die Hard) "It looks like the police have themselves and R.V." 🤣

Next lvl bro. Both in skill and production. Nice job.
Thanks
That was absolutely wild! Love the videos man, i never miss one.
Thanks buddy, I appreciate all the support
your channel is better because you put yourself in not safe situations. Nice and intriguing to watch
Thanks!
that was a good fight
it's awesome at 10:00 you showed the evasion !
Can't win them all, I guess. Amazing close up shots of the Viper. Loved the cinematography.
The engagement would have lasted way shorter if the Su-30SM had Thrust-Vectoring switched on.
A valiant effort my brother
Yeah, I try.. thanks
that su-30 pilot did really good job!! amazing fight btw
OMG this one was epic. At the end everything was just like a movie, so thrilling.
Please make an extra video of the Tak view on this fight
great video, learned a ton watching you fly!
Can't win 'em all especially when it takes a split second for things to go wrong. A nail-biter to the end. Another good one, LS and kudos to Chris, great flying!
One of the most excited BVR fights I watched in long time. I am glad that you did not won in the end because you had your mistakes and Flanker flow better.
Another top quality video.
Thanks so much
9:19 real pilot attitude 💣
That was SPICY, let’s see more of that.

Excitement at its peak in the last.
Thank you for your Service LS (posthumously, of course)
Bro, I love your videos, very interesting fight. Flanker in my heart 💜
One live, one fight. Nice.
YUS, new LS videos ❤️
A proper good fight that fair play to both of you. Love these kind of vids
We are all the best ,my time is gone but you are the best ..
I like the ending. Good video.
Just an idea for the Air Force ! Use a false missile to keep the enemy defensive
Great fight, love the low altitude maneuvering dog fight….except for the result.
you mentioned jettison
your fuel tanks
it's also the name of a classic album by naked raygun
dare you! thanks for the vids
Great Fight! Had to think he still had a 1xFox3 and 1xFox2 at the merge!
Awesome, love it! Great commentary
A-10 v P-38
Gun fight
Engine split throttle on both planes
Switch after flaming opposition
Growling Sidewinder as opponent
Have a nice walk home dude.
awesome video!
Amazing battle!
Right on
Panic is why we train!
Always nice to see both Wins and Loses -
Loved that one!
Funny. Just yesterday I watched GS' video that the "Viper will take your lunch." Good job though.
Great fight, so sorry about the tragic end.
Very cool fight!
Your videos are awesome. Nice work.
These bvr fights are so intense!
Great, great fight man 👍

Very nice strategy and manouvering!
Seems like Indian Su 30 mki vs Pak f16.
Yeah, but the Indians have the way upgraded variant of the Su-30. Meanwhile the Pakistanis have the way worse variant of the F-16 compared to the USAF F-16s.

i always turn my flares off at the beginning of a bvr fight and turn them back on at 10 km
amazing fight, thnx a lot !!!!!
Good fight, great video. 👍
Heck of a battle, LS! Would active jamming have helped at that point? Thanks for the great video work as well.
Thanks.
Jamming helps from a far.. but as you get closer, it will burn through
@@LongShotChannel
Ah. Roger that. Thanks LS!
Wow, that was INTENSE.
camera work is sick!
Thanks
Awesome fight by all standards, bro keep it up, but use the su30 next time
Su 30 post combustion is beautiful
Can we see you in the mig 31 vs 2 f35?
Great fight!
great fight
Great fight. So, 10-to-15-year-old version of Su-30SM with R-77-1 missiles of roughly the same age and "Bars" radar is more or less evenly matched with F-16 (was it a relatively new version, like Block 70?).
It definitely isn't the block 70, probably a block 52 variant.
Sick thumbnail
Thanks
Flanker: "I'm not going to merge with a Viper, merging with a Viper is not good."
You should try again, but with Israeli Python missles against an SU-30
Super interesting fight. I gotta ask, was there an option to disengage and separate once you were out of Fox3s?
Yeah I could run away.
And in the mission I can set up a blue and red side with SAMs.. but.. Im not sure how good of a video this is
Amazing video
Pretty intense!
