  • Many thanks to Cobra for the early access to the DCS MIG-21BIS. I've had a lot of fun flying this aircraft and I highly recommend it to anybody that is interested. Letherneck Simulations did a fantastic job on this project and I give it 3 thumbs up.
    Special thanks to:
    -Cobra
    - DevilDogGamer
    - Bluedrake42
    Music used in order:
    THE NEW LAW - Deconstructed Funk

    Before Finland got the F-18s, I used to watch these Mig-21s dogfight over a lake (Onkivesi) at my grandma's place. Going super sonic, you'd look in one direction, then catch something in the corner of your eye going low over the lake. It looks awesome in real life imo. Not as cool as the Mig-25, but still it has that brutal Soviet look.

    Labels were on for some of those first person shots as when you are learning a new aircraft it is a WISE DECISION to reduce as much difficulty as possible. I am not training my mind or eye sight to spot targets. I am training to use the weapon systems accurately. After you learn these things and are alright with it, THEN it's OK to turn them off.

      Shame most servers don't let you use labels. Seems unfair as in real life pilots have 20/20 vision, while we are usually stuck with 1080p. It's like a semi blind pilot going to war. Just doesn't work very well.

    I've been waiting for this. I flew for a few years in Vietnam not too long ago and loved to watch the Vietnamese airforce 21s doing their circuits and bumps. The speed they need over the threshold was something to behold. One of my old Captain's was a Russian trained 21 pilot, he would just shudder when recounting his antics!

    Great video, and good use of satire to confirm some of my initial thoughts about the mig-21, and some good dogfight footage. Leatherneck did an awesome job on the cockpit. About the landings: I've talked to someone who owns a mig-21 and he described landing much like you demonstrated......line it up, trust the instruments and pray for the best. You basically have to look out your 10 and 2 o'clock down low to judge the decent rate just before touching down.

    It's probably the best module because the MiG 21 is just such a fun plane to fly. It's challenging enough to hold your attention, capable enough to be somewhat useful and is fast and fun to fly. It's simple but hard to master, because its a mach 2 capable 50s design it really feels direct and like you are actually flying something.

  • @vermin1970

    Your comments about the flight model are exactly what I experienced the first time I flew this last night. XD. I actually had butterfiles in my stomach, which is weird because this is a sim. The aircraft felt like it was about to do something I wasn't planning on at any second, but it never did. Not an easy aircraft to fly well, at least for me. I really enjoyed this.

  • @ChrisVellrath
    @ChrisVellrath 8 лет назад

    Wow, I haven't played anything remotely close to a realistic simulator for a while (I'm talking x-plane on a mac like 15+ years ago, way too complex for a young teen). While I'm immensely interested in some of these older jet's, it gets tiring to seek blurry lo-res documentaries in languages that I don't understand just to get a better idea of what the planes were all about. Thanks for putting these videos up and editing them for maximum entertainment, and in bite size chunks too. For many of us without the time (or skill) to invest in learning these old jets, this might be as close as we'll ever come to being in the cockpit. Sub'ed.

  • @SALordBaxter

    Cool video, very interesting to watch although I don't play DCS. Finding out the nuts and bolts of military equipment is always interesting, even if said nuts and bolts come from a sim rather than the real thing.
    Maybe the mig 21 would be more fun to dogfight in if there was a similar quality F-4 module for DCS.

    • @gkooistra91
      @gkooistra91 10 лет назад +2

      Would be awesome to get the F-4. None of the 3rd party developers seem to eager to make it though.
      I do think the F-4 would be superior. It's BVR aim-7's will probably destroy most mig-21's before they get close.

    • @Eboreg2
      @Eboreg2 10 лет назад +5

      Military planners were saying the same thing around that time and ended being very wrong. The Phantom didn't have good BVR target verification capabilities so that would probably play out the same way in DCS.

    • @ralfidude
      @ralfidude  10 лет назад +6

      Eboreg2 Not really just that. The missiles would chase the Sun or just go stupid right away. That was the biggest problem. But if they met head to head, the MIG would go down. I tried fighting vs an F-4 in the 21 and it was hopeless. We both just kept turning and turning, nothing came of it. He was on me the whole time. That and his two engines gave him serious power to outclimb me every time. It was just unfair...

    • @Eboreg2
      @Eboreg2 10 лет назад

      ralfidude
      I guess if we really want to put equal counterparts to the MiG-21 in DCS, we could always look forward to Mirages. Still, I'm thinking that we could probably set up some Vietnam-era missions where the 21s were mainly used in a form of guerrilla warfare.

    • @xeigen2
      @xeigen2 9 лет назад

      gkooistra91 Those missiles were useless. In Vietnam AIM-7E Sparrow achieved 12 - 15% kill probability and AIM-9E Sidewinder achieved only 8 - 10%. An F-4 carried 4x AIM-7 and 4x AIM-9, on average you'd have to fire ALL your missiles to get a single kill. Later models fixed most of the issues but the Vietnam war was long since over, AIM-9L in British use in the Falklands achieved 70 - 90% kill probabilities.
