@@barlock1000 Mig 29 is also mighty jet but in this game is only his first upgrade ever. If it is SMT variant in dcs things would be much more different or even Mig 29 M or even this newer variants like K, M2.
@@milans.637 that's what I'm saying, 9-12 (MiG-29A) is an evil little bird, but Su-27 will be better. It'll be pretty tough and not 100% you gonna win, but in general it's Flanker for the W.
Tip: at 720 kph it can sustain turns with some 19-21 degrees per second, making it similar to an F16. On the downside, this plane is very heavy, just a tad lighter than the F14 , thus having a lot of inertia to overcome. It can rate fight most planes, nose position fight or go far and snell, but once you start a dogfight, its high diameter engines gulp fuel like crazy.
@@WanderfalkeAT It performs poorly when fully loaded, most likely you'll get shot down by a better handling plane. So, for all intents and purposes, it is dead weight
Great to see you flying FC3 aircraft vs full fidelity modules, G/S. Just goes to show that they definitely stand a chance and that their performance isn't diminished, in-game. I actually love the Su-33 vs F-14 Tomcat BFM on the "instant action". It's such a buzz. Little bit of trivia. A friend's father was a pilot with the East German air force and when the Berlin wall came down, all their MiG-29s came to a unified German air force (Luftwaffe). My friend told me that the NATO officials were shocked when they learned that Warsaw Pact pilots were selected based on the amount of G they could handle. By comparison, Western pilots were selected based initially on university/college level education. Therefore, any dogfights between the two sides would have been a resounding victory for the Warsaw Pact; assuming BVR wasn't successful [Side note: I don't know if that's bullshit or not, but it would be interesting if true]
thats super interesting man, I actually didnt know that. maybe true who knows would love to learn more about what they were looking for from a pilot in those days.
@@GrowlingSidewinder Will try to find out more when I next see him. It's usually at space technology conferences but everything's cancelled due to the pandemic. Will also try to find out if anyone would be willing to be interviewed by you - but that's a long shot. Chances are most East German pilots aren't with us anymore.
With few exceptions, American pilots are required to be college graduates (officers) to be able to fly fixed wing. From there, the people most suited for a particular type of flying typically wind up doing their particular thing, assuming that is what they want to do. It makes total sense that the USSR would have selected the most G tolerant individuals for their fighter corps (regardless of whether that person wanted to fly fighters), as that follows how they did most everything: an individual was told to go where he/she would benefit the state the most. However, we do know the result of dogfights between NATO/Warsaw pact nations specifically because of the MiG29s and other aircraft in East German use when the wall came down (these being the best MiG29s, not the export versions). Upon the reunification, the Soviet assets in the former East German air force were immediately set against NATO pilots to see where NATO aircraft and tactics really stood. NATO pilots generally won these engagements, although its noted that the East German pilots occasionally did achieve K/D ratios as high as 1:1 and this prompted enough concern to change some tactics.
Will have to remember this next time I run out of flares... 😅 This is almost to the level of having Jester punch out to distract the bogie on your six...
By far my favourite aircraft in DCS, at least until we get the Eurofighter. I noticed in the gun fights that you were almost immediately hitting max AOA during turns. Using direct control mode to get your gun on target or enter the R-73 launch WEZ will cost you a pile of energy. Not recommended unless it will guarantee you a gun solution or a missile launch. Much better to dogfight with the AOA/G limiter off and save direct control mode for the moment when it will make a critical difference. Great job though, and a great video!
Just recently discovered your channel and loving the videos ! Idk if you have yet but I'd love to see what you mean by AoA, high aspect, off bore shots, as I'm no pilot and don't know lol . Super intriguing to see the thought process in the dogfights !
Hey man thanks for checking out the channel the high off boresight shots are the ones you see in the first 2 fights in this video when u use ur head to lock the bandit and fire a high off boresight missile you see the missile pull high Gs and go off to hit the bandit off the position where your nose is pointing. That’s kind of the idea of HOBS
GS great video - i really like that you now make some views on the red side - maybe also some videos too cold war stuff / AA - F5 vs mig 21 ? - please go on with your videos - allways really interesting videos and makes fun to watch - greets from germany
Mig 29 is like a Soviet drone - it is cheap, does crazy stuff, and runs out of juice in 10 minutes flat. It was made to climb and take out bombers in these 10 minutes, then land on fumes. Not much time to dogfight. Su is the true air-superiority fighter of the USSR. Made to duel long range, short range, dogfight and come back. And those naval Su-33 with canards look absolutely stunning.
@@nikolatasev4948 Plus I believe the Su-27 is just a much better thought-out design, and I believe the MiG-29 designer had a hand in perfecting the Su-27 from the initial T-10, so some lessons from the MiG-29 may have been applied. The Su-27 seems like it was also designed and built to last with much better materials than the MiG-29. As you said, the MiG-29 is literally just a good cheap throwaway fighter meant for a short service life on the front lines or for point-defense. That dirt cheap cost also made it great for export to developing nations. IMHO I think the Su-27 is the pinnacle of Russian aviation and is my favorite non-US fighter.
@@nikolatasev4948 Indian airforce uses mig 29s to scare the shit out Pakistani F16s they fly for long sorties carrying R77s with ranges 120km and R73s with range upto 40km and now they are getting an Indegenous missile with range upto 140km which has been already tested from SU30mkis this will make the mig29s as lethal as an SU27
Really, like the knowledge you've SU-27 for these off boresight situation. If possible, try making one with the SU-30 and SU-35 similar to the 27 but with canards

Why you say SUKHOI??? Sukhoi it's Soviet aircraft designer , Doctor of Technical Sciences, one of the founders of the Soviet jet and supersonic aviation. Aircraft named SU-27.
It's pretty unlikley. ED probably won't want to spend much money on improving their cheap low-fidelity aircraft and there are no high fidelity Russian aircraft.

Bro, make more videos with such off bore sight dogfights with missiles. You have plenty of regular dogfight with guns only videos, so make more of the new format. People seem to love it as well
I read a lot of comments where people complain about “Americans (US)” bad mouthing Russian and Chinese aircraft. I’ve never found that to be the case except for overly patriotic and those who just haven’t read or watched the hundreds of books and documentaries available. I actually believe US pilots and historians have tremendous respect for these pretty amazing aircraft. When we really look in to Russian aviation throughout history..... Russian has had a love of aircraft from the earliest days of aviation and like the US, Germany, France and other nations has had its Frankenstein monstrosities and its absolute works of art. I think one of the things that draws me to the US A-10 is its absolute utility and emphasis on taking care of the pilot. Russia seems to place a high value of maintainability, ruggedness and making aircraft that can be deployed into rough conditions. Maybe someone who know more about Russian training. Do Russian pilots practice takeoffs and landing on unimproved fields and or road systems? Other than the A-10, I’m not aware of any US military fighters / or fighter attack with designs to protect intakes from FOD or even tires or suspensions designed to take the greater forces of grass fields or dirt roads. I’m not knocking US aircraft... just noting a difference in designs philosophy. I was finishing my airline training in the 90’s when a lot of Mig -15’s, 17’s, 21’s were being imported and brought back to flight capabilities. Many of these aircraft were being flown in Europe with parts missing, wire (bailing) holding in parts and in conditions that would immediately ground a F-4 or F-15....... maybe I’m wrong in making this assumption. Again, would love to hear anyone’s thoughts on this.
@@kpsig maybe you are right... the maneuverability of the su must be a huge advantage. Id like to see the differences in more detail, maybe the f15 could compensate with another strength.
hey thanks man ya get something cheap dude don't think u gotta go big to be successful, most of my videos on this channel earlier were filmed with the thrustmaster t16000 at the time it was like a 50$ stick.
Thanks to Microsoft, all HOTAS systems are fucking horrendously expensive :( Give it some time though, and you can get a t1600000000 for around $60, and the complementary throttle (TWCS) for about as much. Don't bother with an Extreme 3d Pro, they break pretty easily.
After doing a little research I'm guess the older Hornet might beat the Super Hornet because the newer plane is heavier? I was imagining that the larger leading edge root extensions of the Super Hornet might give it more nose authority than the original Hornet.
Very interesting Vid. A little bit history, some tech stuff and for what it was designed. The informations are well presented and u can see the described bird in Action. Love this kind of Videos. If not already done... can you do one from the Tomcat? Thanks for your work, Viper out :)
I know it’s Russian but I’ve always loved the su27 and mig29 just imagine if the u.s. and Russia could build a fighter jet together nothing would be able to touch it
@@level30boss27 You don't consider China as an emerging airforce? Lots of other countries (like UK, Turkey, Japan and India) have their own fighter programmes, including 5th gen fighters. I know that coop between the States and Russians is never going to happen, but I wouldn't discard Chinese as major force in the course of 10-15 years.
@@d.h.9239 you know china has huge resources on rare earth, metal and cheap capacity for work. they cant go broke because every nation need their rare earth. they can even waste billions for ghost cities like kangbashi, lol. btw. WWII wasn't just usmurica vs germany you just bombed our cities day in day out.
@@d.h.9239 dude srsly, you can just hope that chinas economic bubble doesn't pop that fast because they still need know how and engineering from the western world. if that happens it will damage the global/us market a lot. it's just a matter of time cuz they have a stupid corrupt government.
In the first engagement, when you were trying to get the nose on him with the AoA limiter and min speed warnings going off, did you consider bypassing the ACS? This would have brought the nose right around earlier, but potentially left you a sitting duck if he managed to get a 9x off. Curious if you would recommend being more aggressive with the ACS.
@14:45 Strange that the AIM-9X did not track anything. Su-27 fired its flares upwards, that should even have helped to direct the missile closer to the Su-27. For whatever reason it decided to neither track the flares nor the Su-27. It looks like the missile after the initial turn flew in a straight line so it was not pulling any g's. Maybe it was it fired too close so the missile thought it would harm the Hornet, too?
I wonder if a missile could use infra red spectroscopy to distinguish the heat signature of jet engines from that of the flares. It should be possible in theory because the hot gases from the jet will have a very different chemical composition from those produced by flares, so the IR “fingerprints” (frequency spectra) will also be very different. I bet this has already been thought of. Any comment on this?
So can anyone tell me how accurate the flight model on these non-full fidelity aircraft are? Is it realistic to the real life version? Is it built with access to real data or what? I'm not even sure how these modules are made.
My understanding is the FC3 planes have the same level of aerodynamic and physics simulations that go into full-fidelity modules. Some more complicated things like flight augmentation systems may not be as accurate as a full-fidelity module. The consensus seems to be that the MiG seems off, but others like the Sukhoi are better and the F-15 is supposed to be on the money.
Love your channel man. I was wondering if you can make a video compiling all the fighter jet Sims you have played over the years. Really hope you played IAF (israeli airforce ) or USAF.

Legends say best ways to evade enemy missiles:
1.Fire your own missile at enemy missile.
2.Eject jester.
3.Fire up ground clutter.
Tip: at 720 kph it can sustain turns with some 19-21 degrees per second, making it similar to an F16. On the downside, this plane is very heavy, just a tad lighter than the F14 , thus having a lot of inertia to overcome.

Other than the A-10, I’m not aware of any US military fighters / or fighter attack with designs to protect intakes from FOD or even tires or suspensions designed to take the greater forces of grass fields or dirt roads.
I’m not knocking US aircraft... just noting a difference in designs philosophy.
I was finishing my airline training in the 90’s when a lot of Mig -15’s, 17’s, 21’s were being imported and brought back to flight capabilities. Many of these aircraft were being flown in Europe with parts missing, wire (bailing) holding in parts and in conditions that would immediately ground a F-4 or F-15....... maybe I’m wrong in making this assumption. Again, would love to hear anyone’s thoughts on this.
@@Stormidze I tried to cut copy and paste the Reply into English... wasn’t able. :(
Could you show a encounter/comparison with the f-15 and/or in combination with their respective f-16 and mig 29?
@@kpsig maybe you are right... the maneuverability of the su must be a huge advantage. Id like to see the differences in more detail, maybe the f15 could compensate with another strength.
11:27 A wild hornet buzzing through the meadows.
That damage model looks sick!
7:15 I'm not the only who thinks this sounds like an old Battlefield theme song.
You arent: he's got some awesome music selections for this channel.
do you ever fly the f22?
Been watching your videos for ages but only recently gotten into DCS, any recommendations for flight controls to get (preferably budget).
hey thanks man ya get something cheap dude don't think u gotta go big to be successful, most of my videos on this channel earlier were filmed with the thrustmaster t16000 at the time it was like a 50$ stick.
Thanks to Microsoft, all HOTAS systems are fucking horrendously expensive :( Give it some time though, and you can get a t1600000000 for around $60, and the complementary throttle (TWCS) for about as much. Don't bother with an Extreme 3d Pro, they break pretty easily.
Please do a Viper vs Flanker fox 2 fight along with guns 🙏
Great vids as always
Id like to see more WW2-Korean war era dog fights
The same fight against a Super Hornet? What do you think?
After doing a little research I'm guess the older Hornet might beat the Super Hornet because the newer plane is heavier? I was imagining that the larger leading edge root extensions of the Super Hornet might give it more nose authority than the original Hornet.
Very interesting Vid. A little bit history, some tech stuff and for what it was designed. The informations are well presented and u can see the described bird in Action. Love this kind of Videos. If not already done... can you do one from the Tomcat? Thanks for your work, Viper out :)
I know it’s Russian but I’ve always loved the su27 and mig29 just imagine if the u.s. and Russia could build a fighter jet together nothing would be able to touch it
True but then their would be no need for such a plane because there would be no direct competition for it.
@@level30boss27 You don't consider China as an emerging airforce? Lots of other countries (like UK, Turkey, Japan and India) have their own fighter programmes, including 5th gen fighters.
I know that coop between the States and Russians is never going to happen, but I wouldn't discard Chinese as major force in the course of 10-15 years.
Even america doesn't build together with Europe than to say Russia
@@d.h.9239 you know china has huge resources on rare earth, metal and cheap capacity for work. they cant go broke because every nation need their rare earth. they can even waste billions for ghost cities like kangbashi, lol.
btw. WWII wasn't just usmurica vs germany you just bombed our cities day in day out.
@@d.h.9239 dude srsly, you can just hope that chinas economic bubble doesn't pop that fast because they still need know how and engineering from the western world. if that happens it will damage the global/us market a lot. it's just a matter of time cuz they have a stupid corrupt government.
great video, really enjoyable
My props to Master Jay.
In the first engagement, when you were trying to get the nose on him with the AoA limiter and min speed warnings going off, did you consider bypassing the ACS? This would have brought the nose right around earlier, but potentially left you a sitting duck if he managed to get a 9x off. Curious if you would recommend being more aggressive with the ACS.
ACS?
Is off-bore sight relevant modern fighters with HMD and IRIS-T ifor example?
You can launch on almost anything at any position.
Nice plane, I really love it
Master Jay did the Egyptian mig21 move lol
@14:45 Strange that the AIM-9X did not track anything. Su-27 fired its flares upwards, that should even have helped to direct the missile closer to the Su-27.
For whatever reason it decided to neither track the flares nor the Su-27. It looks like the missile after the initial turn flew in a straight line so it was not pulling any g's.
Maybe it was it fired too close so the missile thought it would harm the Hornet, too?
Great videos bro. Can u tell me name of the background music?
1:30 awesome move
Hey guys, I am thinking of getting into DCS, do you think the su 27 or su 33 would be a better plane to buy
I wonder if a missile could use infra red spectroscopy to distinguish the heat signature of jet engines from that of the flares. It should be possible in theory because the hot gases from the jet will have a very different chemical composition from those produced by flares, so the IR “fingerprints” (frequency spectra) will also be very different. I bet this has already been thought of. Any comment on this?
What's the name of the song in tacview?
Hit the ground.. hit the ground.. !!
Ow... he made it..
Como será un combate Su27 vs Mig 29 ?
I'm just want to make sure, does the radio intro said: "back down, back down,"? If so then how do you do that with a fighter jet?
“Good kill good kill”
@@GrowlingSidewinder нравится тебе су 27?
nice, do you like to play the warthog and do you dogfight in it ?
Beautiful video ;)
The flight model in your videos seems to have less "bounce" than some other videos I have seen for DCS. Have you done something to help that?
Trim her out man that’s all I did
7:21 music name please
That merge at 8:07 - Yikes!!!
Someone is calling you, pick it up! xD
So can anyone tell me how accurate the flight model on these non-full fidelity aircraft are? Is it realistic to the real life version? Is it built with access to real data or what? I'm not even sure how these modules are made.
My understanding is the FC3 planes have the same level of aerodynamic and physics simulations that go into full-fidelity modules. Some more complicated things like flight augmentation systems may not be as accurate as a full-fidelity module. The consensus seems to be that the MiG seems off, but others like the Sukhoi are better and the F-15 is supposed to be on the money.
11:27 Someone got their lawn trimmed
What is the corner speed of Su-27 ?
You said it has two turbojet engines when actually they are turbofan engines
Love your channel man.
I was wondering if you can make a video compiling all the fighter jet Sims you have played over the years.
Really hope you played IAF (israeli airforce ) or USAF.
Ahah ya dude I grew up on janes IAF and ww2 sims those old 90s sims were awesome
11:21 wow!
Thank you o7
Yay more sukois
Fam please make more videos using jeff,i want to see it in ur capable hands
LOVE THE BATTLEFIELD THEME
13:56 aim 9x block II with the datalink can dot an 180 turn and hit the enemy at your six
Not in DCS
Yes yes yes, more russian jets!
Definetly one circular fight plane
Is it just me or the T-10-1 kinda like F/A-18E/F Super Hornet ?
I always wonder what is this victory theme is(from 7:16 〜) Btw good WVR video.
Excellent 👍
you should fly SU27 more
1:34 holyshit that look like out of macross
