Kudos to the other pilot for choosing aircraft to make this more interesting instead of going to the usual F22, SU35, Black Widow type platforms which take all the fun out of it imo 👍
If "Florida man" was an airplane... He'd be the A10. "Got me twin turbskis running on Bartle skeet, and a gun that sounds like my mother in law after a bowl of beans! Let's do this fer dale!"
Personally knowing the person with the first credited air to air kill in an A-10 back during Desert Storm, this is hilarious. The pilot was Todd "Shanghai" Sheehy btw, was part of the 511th TFS out of RAF Alconbury. My old man was his squadron commander.
7:18 - Wow, I've never seen a Tomcat repair its own vertical stabilizer in flight before! 👀 Great contest with a very capable opponent, GS! Have you ever considered flying the Do 335 Pfeil and Heinkel Lerche in IL-2 Sturmovik? I know you liked flying the Me 262, I think you would enjoy flying those as well - especially the Lerche, since it is a VTOL design. It's flown in a prone position with a huge glass canopy, I imagine it would be a blast in VR. The design also features air to air rockets. 😁
This is like a fantasy I had when I was a teenager. My family was stationed at Ft. Cavazos, then Ft Hood in the 70s. I used to see those A10s doing flights all the time. I loved the A10 and often thought it could hold its own in a close in fight with most anything. I was 13 so give me a break!
To add on to what others have said earlier. This guy earned my respect, he started off with a strong aircraft to secure the first point, and instead of going "hurr durr, Waptor Stwong", he immediately jumped into a Tomcat and started Mavericking all over you!
Well, she wasn't as robust as we thought in rd 1. lol Last rd, if that was the Eagle she may have made it home on 1 wing. Great vid brother. The A-10 never gets old!
I'm not military, and only seen aircraft at airshows for 50 years. All I can say is that the most manoeuvrable jet I've ever seen is the SU-35! It is unreal!
I picked a perfect time to get back into DCS..love the A10. My winwing hotas setup just arrived too and now all these A10 videos popping up (my favorite one!).
That guy in the F5, looked like that cartoon, where the pilot jumps from the plane, slams into the ground and THEN the chute pops open! The F4 never had a chance! All the rest seemed to like their hog BBQed!
I would really like to see some F35 videos of it doing F35 stuff. Not a dogfight or just a BVR fight but what an F35 is actually designed to do. Fight its way in take out a ground target, maybe do some SEAD along the way etc.
More of those appropriate mission styles with that hinderence of strike aircraft that you must deal with in process to complete objective. This shows your true flight ability and adaptability.
Haha, I was afraid that last fight was going to see you facing an F-22 or SU-57 with you beating him twice in a row like that. The F-15 was a surprisingly good fight from both of you!
Good video, but I have to wonder about something. When I was in the Army forty years ago we watched lightly loaded A-10s exhibit absolutely insane low-speed maneuvers and direction changes, I mean to the point that we joked they had to ne flying saucers in disguise. I don't see this level of maneuverability reflected in DCS. So what happened? What I am wondering is if they didn't subsequently limit the maneuverability because these gyrations were too hard on the airframe and not needed for the mission? I'd welcome people's thoughts about this.
That black amd red paint scheme(i don't know what it's actually called)on the flanker in the very first fight looks amazing on the already good looking flanker!!I'll always root for our nato jets on looks and obviously on capability as well,but daaayyyuuuuummm the ENTIRE flanker series are so mean looking,especially with different skins and schemes
Couldn't you just choose high explosive rounds? Just out of curiosity. That would have ended that round in an instant. Tomcat I think was always gonna win that round, good thing is he is using great aircraft to suit the fight, he should have chosen the SU-25 though. Bro you have eagle eyes to tell what aircraft they are using., insane talent dude. Sorry to piss you off with the long comments bro but I mostly type as I'm watching the video, so you get that. He deserves some love from the peeps because of the aircraft he chose, what a champ. Dude F-15 was a great fight GS killed by GW (g-force wing) that had to burn you piss man it burn mine lol.
"You wouldnt extend if you got into a dogfight" but, to be fair, you wouldnt go into a dogfight without shooting him twice+ in the face premerge either so... But yea. Gotta make it interesting of course!! Well done!
I have always wondered if anyone had ever flown the Harrier and used the exhaust nozzles to tighten a turn. In my mind you could do some pretty good things with a little VIFFing. (Vectoring in forward flight)
Nice that this Vid was close to 20 min. I would like a bwr fight between the Su75 Checkmate and the f35, where you’re flying the Checkmate. And without a Awacs. Thanks 👍
I was hoping to see this as well- some good fights! Would have been funny if he brought out the Felon LOL Day 86 / Vid 47 of bugging ya to take the Mig 31 foxhound for a spin! You really should give it a try sometime! And yes, a Mig 31 vs the world- BVR fights- would be cool- - as even a enemy Raptor won't expect you to be sneaking up on them from 70,000 at Mach 3 nearly, with AWACs datalink support ,IRST ready, and that powerful Mig 31 radar, and R -37Ms -and everyone else from the F 4 to the Eagle to the Flanker - is in deep trouble Actually, for this video ere that might have been a cool fight here- it'd be like a worse dogfighting variant of the strike eagle- the Foxhound vs the A 10. A10 prob manuevers better though
Not really. The A-10 is a later generation platform, and the F-5 was a cheap export fighter (doing double duty as a trainer in the T-38), not even a front-line fighter for its own generation. It has a speed advantage, but I wouldn't be surprised if even the A-10 has a specific power advantage over it. Given he beat the F-4, beating the F-5 is no surprise; The F-5 was basically built for US allies that couldn't afford the F-4. And given how much of a fight he put up for the F-14/15, beating the F-4 is no surprise either.

Md Nat Guard out of Martins used to see them everyday at my last job!They have a Sabre at the gate and it is so small in comparison to the hog.
NGAD vs F-15 ACTIVE, dogfight, guns or missiles (or both) plzkthx

SU-47 vs NGAD, dogfight, guns or missiles (or both) plzkthx
If you have the SU25. Can you do A10 vs. SU25?
Kudos to the other pilot for choosing aircraft to make this more interesting instead of going to the usual F22, SU35, Black Widow type platforms which take all the fun out of it imo 👍
It definitely made the final fight really tense.
I was kind of hoping for a P-51 or another A-10 as well
I was kina hoping to have seen a warbird or maybe an F-86, still a good match though
Well, the Su-35 is based off the Su-27, unless you are referring the the Su-57
Just so! That's what I wanted to say as well.
F-15 shoots off one of your main control surfaces. GS: "I'm alright."
his loss of his wing became inevitable because it's coming off sooner or later after that damage
“Tis but a scratch” (c)
Could you imagine being the poor F-5 pilot, he’s like “Oh I got this!” Before getting folded by a metal tub with two Mountain Dew can engines on it.
If "Florida man" was an airplane...
He'd be the A10.
"Got me twin turbskis running on Bartle skeet, and a gun that sounds like my mother in law after a bowl of beans! Let's do this fer dale!"
@@stinkyfungus HELL YEAH BROTHURRR
"he punched out way too late there" really gs you are the last one to say that.
The beginning Fox 2 went for the forbidden heat signature immediately
Saw a civilian airliner off in the distance and did what had to be done.
1:54 - I'm not normally impressed by the damage modeling in DCS, but the way that wing came off in a fireball was really gorgeous.
He uses shaders. If you're looking, it's in the description.
Your pilot actually survived that last ejection after rocketing towards the ground at 400ft and buttered his landing!😅
Bro, idk how but that was so close but so smooth 😂
would expect a twisted knee or something. He only got a swing and a half on the chute.
If that phrase of yours does not have a trade mark, I'll take it "I didn't get a warrior's death......" Epic GS
Personally knowing the person with the first credited air to air kill in an A-10 back during Desert Storm, this is hilarious. The pilot was Todd "Shanghai" Sheehy btw, was part of the 511th TFS out of RAF Alconbury. My old man was his squadron commander.
I probably knew your father, just by name, since I was in the 509th during Desert Storm!
I love these kinds of videos, but I love reading stuff like this just as much. :)
Two days of warthogs i am BLESSED
Same❤
7:18 - Wow, I've never seen a Tomcat repair its own vertical stabilizer in flight before! 👀 Great contest with a very capable opponent, GS!

I love that shot of the Tomcat lighting the burners while he's climbing over your nose. One of the best shots in recent fights.
2 x Sidewinders to finish you off in style in Round 2...what a legend!
Great video.
The ballet in the last round was great! I want to see an A-10 vs Strike Eagle rematch!
7:24 With that engine fire dumping out all that heat, you were completely screwed when the next Fox 2 came off the rail.
That final 'chute was awesome, it must have been like stepping off the bottom of an escalator lol
18:05 Not sure if that landing is going to be a trip to the chiropractor or the morgue lol
1:21 FORBIDDEN HEAT SOURCE ACQUIRED
I like the "a single A-10 lays waste to an entire base" vids the best.
For whatever amount of extra work went into the longer video, thank you. It was awesome 👏🏼 was rooting for you in that last one.
This is like a fantasy I had when I was a teenager. My family was stationed at Ft. Cavazos, then Ft Hood in the 70s. I used to see those A10s doing flights all the time.

I really love the A-10 and the F-14. Two so unique jets, very nice.
F/A-18E/F vs F-35C (Fox-2 fight) would be epic to see! Navy vs Navy : Old vs New
Day 43
more like new vs new
Has anyone done the Hornet v Super Hornet?
@@josebrown5961 GS already did it sometime ago if i remember correctly.
@@whyareyouhere6274Thanks! I’ll look it up.
Hornet destroys the F-35 there
This is a great demo of energy management with BFM. Nicely done!
Damn the mighty cat is even more resilient than i thought. Taking a schot from the BRRRRT gun and staying combat effective is a statement!
Well, she wasn't as robust as we thought in rd 1. lol Last rd, if that was the Eagle she may have made it home on 1 wing. Great vid brother. The A-10 never gets old!
I'm not military, and only seen aircraft at airshows for 50 years. All I can say is that the most manoeuvrable jet I've ever seen is the SU-35! It is unreal!
Infact it is the most manuevarable
Amazing performance from the A10. Even if it’s a strike eagle. It’s still an F15 at the end of the day. Not a bad run.
He reefed that missile truck around like a boss…👍👍👍
I picked a perfect time to get back into DCS..love the A10. My winwing hotas setup just arrived too and now all these A10 videos popping up (my favorite one!).
That guy in the F5, looked like that cartoon, where the pilot jumps from the plane, slams into the ground and THEN the chute pops open!
The F4 never had a chance!
All the rest seemed to like their hog BBQed!
These dogfight everything videos are awesome content. Keep em coming!
I love all the A-10 and F22 videos but they are better when you go in a mission rather than a dogfight. thank you
6:38 - Where did he go? Where'd who gooooo! 6:43 bang!
That Flanker shot really showing that the only thing you can do with a high-off-boresight Fox 2 is shoot the sun even when the sun is behind you.
4:40 bro I just realized how good of a pilot GS is cuz I didn’t hear anything
7:25 That second missile was just adding insult to injury at that point, lmao.
I would really like to see some F35 videos of it doing F35 stuff. Not a dogfight or just a BVR fight but what an F35 is actually designed to do. Fight its way in take out a ground target, maybe do some SEAD along the way etc.
Yes, Casey, those are great ideas 💡 👍
I liked this bandit, please call him back for other videos too.
More of those appropriate mission styles with that hinderence of strike aircraft that you must deal with in process to complete objective.
This shows your true flight ability and adaptability.
You should consider adding a joystick/controls camera view. Would be cool to see the stick and throttle inputs for these fights!
Haha, I was afraid that last fight was going to see you facing an F-22 or SU-57 with you beating him twice in a row like that. The F-15 was a surprisingly good fight from both of you!
Slightly wider circles next time to account for the speed diff, still staying inside their circles but not sacrificing so much speed in the merge.
Tht heatseeker really said: Brother I crave the forbidden heat source
Feeling sorry for all the people hanging out on the ground catching the A-10 rounds that miss.
Now do it in the F-86!
Good video, but I have to wonder about something. When I was in the Army forty years ago we watched lightly loaded A-10s exhibit absolutely insane low-speed maneuvers and direction changes, I mean to the point that we joked they had to ne flying saucers in disguise.

I'd welcome people's thoughts about this.
GG THank you for the VOD. 🥃🥃
Man, that F-15 fight was awesome.
I'm a bit surprised the 30mm round didn't disassemble opposition aircraft or turn them into instant fireball upon impact.
Nice to see the MD national guard skin
That black amd red paint scheme(i don't know what it's actually called)on the flanker in the very first fight looks amazing on the already good looking flanker!!I'll always root for our nato jets on looks and obviously on capability as well,but daaayyyuuuuummm the ENTIRE flanker series are so mean looking,especially with different skins and schemes
Wow, that parachute deployed at the very last second! 😮
I mean from my perspective, he perforated your wing and that allowed you to over g it easier
PLEASE recreate the US militaries tests of rotary wing vs fixed wing air to air combat
Entertaining as usual 😊
It always makes my day when a new G.S. video drops!!! Not to mention Longshot drops one as well!!!👍💪🔥🔥🔥
love the longer videos!! great fights🔥
Love the vids !!
😊
You got robbed in the Tomcat dog fight...
Day something of asking for something.
Day 5 of asking for Me-262 verses the world
LOL, Vietnam - good one 👍
At least you did not get killed on today fight. Thanks for making all great videos ❤
Good Video Bud!!!
Fox 2 at the start was drunk
Man you’re killing everyone in that thing you probably got a good gaming chair
Props to NoDak gaming for doing this year’s ago. I’ve been hoping GS would do it ever since. LFG.
OMG, YES!!! My dream video!
6:42 Jumpscared me lol 😂
gettin' good with those A-10 snap shots
Another great video!
That A10 vs F15E is literally like Tai-chi fight. Everything is so slow
Couldn't you just choose high explosive rounds? Just out of curiosity. That would have ended that round in an instant.

But yea. Gotta make it interesting of course!!
Well done!
I would love to see more F-5 videos. It is a beautiful aircraft.
NOW, that's what we want to see more more more more .... of.
That was a SPICY 🥵 ejection, that last round.
Sheeeeeeesh
I really love these F-4 videos! Thank you!! I would like to see F-4 vs MiG-28 (F-5E) dogfight video, please!!
The F-4 isn't a capable dogfighter, so that video wouldn't be any fun IMO. To have a chance, the Phantom needs to be able to boom and zoom.
Now I’m gonna go die 50 times because you make it look easy!!!
rip
This is random but f16 vs harrier????
I have always wondered if anyone had ever flown the Harrier and used the exhaust nozzles to tighten a turn.
In my mind you could do some pretty good things with a little VIFFing. (Vectoring in forward flight)
As close as that Ejection was to the ground. I can only say: Two broken legs, followed by a violent shrapnel perforation.
Right On Great Video
in the last fight, i was expecting him to come at you in a Sopwith Camel.
Sick VF-111 livery on the F-5!!!
15:27 🤨🤨🤨🔎🧐📸📸📸
Ever since Top Gun i have always wondered why the F-5 didnt get much props....seemed like a pretty fast/manuverable aircraft...i guess i just saw why.
Imagine being in the cockpit of that F-4 when it was spinning end over end 😬!
The bail out was nice, just walk 5m and hope someone pick you up 😎
Rumors are the Fox-2 is still heading for the Sun to this day.
I'm enjoying this concept, Can't wait for the F-22.
Nice that this Vid was close to 20 min. I would like a bwr fight between the Su75 Checkmate and the f35, where you’re flying the Checkmate. And without a Awacs. Thanks 👍
Now that we have the F4. You need to dust off the F5 and have an F5 V F4
Good stuff!
I was hoping to see this as well- some good fights! Would have been funny if he brought out the Felon LOL
Day 86 / Vid 47 of bugging ya to take the Mig 31 foxhound for a spin! You really should give it a try sometime! And yes, a Mig 31 vs the world- BVR fights- would be cool-
- as even a enemy Raptor won't expect you to be sneaking up on them from 70,000 at Mach 3 nearly, with AWACs datalink support ,IRST ready, and that powerful Mig 31 radar, and R -37Ms
-and everyone else from the F 4 to the Eagle to the Flanker - is in deep trouble
Actually, for this video ere that might have been a cool fight here- it'd be like a worse dogfighting variant of the strike eagle- the Foxhound vs the A 10. A10 prob manuevers better though
i seriously cant wait to play this
Okay, the Mudhen sawed off your left aileron, which is why your wing broke, GS.
growling is so damn good at this game, beating an f5 with an a10 is a little crazy. thats a buick beating a corvette.
Not really. The A-10 is a later generation platform, and the F-5 was a cheap export fighter (doing double duty as a trainer in the T-38), not even a front-line fighter for its own generation. It has a speed advantage, but I wouldn't be surprised if even the A-10 has a specific power advantage over it.

"aN A10 CaN fLy wIth ONilY oNe EnGiNE aND OnE wInG YA kNOw"*insert spongebob meme here*- Every shitposter after the first round, probably.
F-4 shoot down physics 10/10
