    Just a quick little video to highlight the differences between the F22 and the F35 as always keep in mind the F35 wasn't really built to dogfight in the traditional sense so its not its fault it gets smoked in dogfights, if an F35 has merged many many mistakes have been made, as always keep in mind these are just mods and don't represent the TRUE capabilities of these highly classified aircraft.

      The F-35 is actually comparable to the F-22 in mock engagements despite it being a multirole fighter. I was surprised to learn this. Cheaper, more advanced, and easier to upgrade. Of course the F-22 is peak air superiority being designed for that niche but the F-35 is definitely the next best thing.

    Not to mention that over the last 40 years, high-g turning dogfights have been extremely rare and are going to get rarer with the F-35 sensor fusion and modern IFF/data links. It’s far more important to be low observable and have high SA than be able to turn inside another aircraft. Of course, the F-22 can do ALL of those.

    I dunno if this has already been mentioned, but the ability for the F-35 pilot to shoot missiles off boresight thanks to their helmet mounted displays and the plane's distributed aperture system might mean that the F-35 doesn't necessarily need to turn into its target to get a missile lock, and it's possible the F-22 might have the same capabilities in the future.
    Regardless, this was an interesting matchup, keep it up!

      So I worked with armament in the USAF, and I can confirm that’s not an F-35 exclusive. The capability exists on the F-15’s, F-16’s and the F-22’s as well because it’s just a link between the JHMCs system and the AIM-9X. I think that was the acronym, but basically it’s just the helmet paired with the AIM-9X’s camera.

    The F-35 is said to have excellent sensor fusion and its special helmet, which results in improved situational awareness of the pilot. I think this is not quite modeled in DCS, or at least not as impactful as it probably is in real life. Even if the F-35 loses every single merge, the technology should enable the pilot to avoid such situations entirely.

    • @starbase218
      @starbase218 2 роки тому +21

      Only thing about that is the F-35 can't actually carry any AIM-9 in a stealth configuration. The Sidewinder's seeker head needs to see its target to lock on before launch. With the F-22 that's possible as it has special bays with rails that extend and angle the Sidewinder outwards. The F-35 OTOH needs to carry the AIM-9s on wing pylons.
      I've been wondering about this. I mean, block 4 F-35s are supposed to be able to carry 6 AMRAAMs. I don't know how realistic DCS is (I don't play it myself, just here to watch GS and learn stuff), but quite often radar-guided missiles seem to be easy to defend against. It's good to get a guy to be defensive, I guess, but wouldn't internally carried AIM-9s increase the lethality of the F-35? Just wondering.
      But I guess nobody actually knows how realistic DCS is wrt the F-35 and F-22 (and possibly other types).

    I think what a lot of people don't understand about the F-35 is that it was designed to be a node in a distributed system. GS was kind of making this point. Yes, a lone F-35 would get absolutely creamed in a one-v-one with an F-22. However, that's not how it was designed to fight. If a (admittedly fantastical, never gonna happen) hostile F-22 managed to get that close to an F-35, it would be seconds away from being creamed by another F-35 or (eventually) a missile truck drone. The F-35 is a sensor/network package first, weapon system second. It's designed for a world where the targeting system is on one aircraft, the weapon is on another, and the engagement authority is yet somewhere else.

      It was really funny as that was the first nickname given to it by it's pilots. However I understand that it finally found it's true nickname amongst pilots as they found it's proper role and more info was declassified, due to how it does in strikes, which is primarily how it fights; it is now the "Panther." It makes sense too. It goes in unseen and pounces, then is off. Definitely want to see a BVR fight against the two though. That would be a much more interesting and fair fight as they are both stealth aircraft. Stealth doesn't help much in a dogfight, I mean the F-16C will fairly consistently beat the F-35 in a dogfight.

    From what I can recall, the UK was offered the F-22, but it was deemed unaffordable. Japan was also given a chance to acquire a downgraded export variant of the F-22, but they were uninterested in helping to develop what was basically a watered down F-22. The UK and Israel have extremely strong ties with the US. So much so that their F-35s are the only export versions that do not include Lockheed Martin's "off button", which is a safety precaution in all other nation's exported F-35s.

    F-35 would hold the upper hand in BVR because of DAS and EOTS. In realistic terms, they'd both be running with radars off to avoid detection. F-35 would see first and shoot first. It could fire 4 AAMRAMS and then just run away. F-22 couldn't do anything about it.

      The f-22 likely has avionics just as good as the f-35 if not better. It's why f-22 tech isn't exportable and top secret, just like the b-2. The cockpit layouts are even classified. Why would the US military export planes with better avionics than its air superiority fighter? This is why the US military is apprehensive about Japan's tactical fighter program, they want to use the yf-23 airframe but it would basically have f-15j and f-35 avionics. If Japan brought the yf-23 up to production status it would likely outperform the f-22.

      How many fights has it been in? Exactly you THINK it’s unbeatable.

    I live in Canada, and we've (the public) have been painfully waiting for the government to decide between the F35 and the Gripen JAS39E for our next fighter. Could you do this same video but with those two aircraft? I've always wondered which plane would win off the merge. Thanks for all your videos, I love them!

      Coming back, your government chose the F-35.

    That first merge was so close that the pilots could have reached out of their respective cockpits and high-fived each other. Lmao.

    Just discovered your channel! Great videos! Currently binge watching! Went to download DCS myself yesterday but 60GB’s!? That’ll take me a week to download!

    This was awesome! But I'd also like to see the F-22 guns only VS the F-35 with guns and missiles. Is that possible in the future?

    And people still say the F-35 is way more advanced because of a helmet but it can’t compare to F-22 cause how it performs can’t be realesed

    Imagine having an airframe and weapon system design so advanced that you don't let your fighter pilots practice true engagements with other countries because those other countries might actually catch up with a "20 year old design".
    Insane. F22 for life

    I get the feeling they need to reinstate F-22 production 😆

      @Asghaad 2 роки тому +8

      at this point it would be cheaper to design the successor with the last 20 years of technological improvements than restarting old production while trying to update 23 year old design.

      @@Asghaad did u hear that old earth update nerfed the f-22 they removed it out of the game so those who have it are the only ones in the game and if u trade then they are worth a lot

      Nope. The opposite actually. F 15 will outlive the Raptor.
