    On this channel we like to do a lot of dogfighting most videos are some sort of dogfight between 2 different aircraft as we explore their different capabilities. From time to time I like to dabble in Virtual Reality, I think VR is a great new technology and I love to show that stuff off for the channel from time to time.
    If you enjoy war thunder or Microsoft flight simulator 2020 or even dogfighting in Battlefield 2042, consider getting yourself into Digital Combat Simulator by Eagle Dynamics, the Combat side of Aviation with the BVR and Dogfights really provides a different and interesting perspective on aviation. You can fly all kinds of combat aircraft including the F-16, F-15, F-14, JF-17, Su-27, Mig-29, Mirage and the F-18 Hornet along with many other aircraft and helicopters like the Ka-50 and Mi-8.

    Both planes are underpowered, but the Wiggen is just made of wing area. A lot of delta aircraft were not made for dogfighting but were very good at it anyway. The F-102 and 106 were intended to fly like a Concorde but could out-turn the F-4.

    Viggen enjoys the delta wing, good AoA at slower speeds and good one circle performance for a brief time. This one obviously has a huge weakness in the shape of compressor stall but it's still capable of dogfighting inferior aircrafts. JA-37 would have a field day in the same scenario.

    When I was a boy use to build many aircraft models and I had both Viggen & Draken. I was impressed by reverse trust of J37 but was attracted by J35 looking at it from all sides trying to convince myself is no good as I know from all my reading. I ended loving the McDonald Douglas planes F-15 & F-18 both more in two seats variant and obviously the F-14. Indeed I need decades to appreciate how it looks the F-16. Now I love all "teen" aircrafts, then I used my Draken as second generation of Vipers from "Battlestar Galactica" cause of the "Space" look.

    Freedom everyone
    P.s.: I had to wait till Mirage 2000 to like Delta wing because F-102/F-106/Mirage III/Mirage 4000 were beautiful as A-6/A-7. I find a real beauty the F-5 Freedom Fighter but having a T-38 too I considered it a trainer, to much similar.

    Could we please see the viggen VS the F-4 Phantom? It'd be really interesting to see how that fight could go.
    And also to that "Is the viggen actually good?", I'd say yea. the JA 37 is probably far more capable with the upgraded radar, access to skyflashes, and newer engine which had more thrust and was less likely to compressor stall. The later JA 37s especially, with countermeasures. Overall it's a pretty nifty plane IMO, and it'd be awesome to see the fighter variants in DCS.

    The Viggen is a tactical multirole fighter. It can intercept, dogfight, fly low,fly high, strike targets, has STOL capability. It used a huge (for the time) low bypass turbofan (JT8D) that would allow it to climb and accelerate quite well. The F1 on the other hand has a very weak turbojet, that does not suit the plane well. Also, you seem to be having problems with engine stalls and AOA in many planes. Don;t be so aggressive with the stick. If the plane does not like it, ease off a bit. Let it breathe.

      I'm not sure I would call the Viggen a multirole fighter, at least not in the modern sense. You didn't have a single version that was good at multiple types of missions, instead the Viggen had dedicated variants: attack variant with limited air to air capability, air to air variant with some ground attack capability, reconnaissance variant, sea strike variant. It reminds me in this way of another one of its contemporaries, the Tornado, which had several specialized variants rather than being what we'd today consider true multirole capabilities.

With the advent of better electronics, all could be bound together in the AJS with the help of CK37. So yeah, it is a multirole platform. What do you think AJS stands for? Attack, Jakt, Spaning.

Being able to fire a Sidewinder in air to air doesn't make you multirole. There's a reason why they had a separate upgrade from JA 37 to the JA 37D standard: that variant could actually do air to air well.

    Its sad we dont have the ja-37 variant of the viggen. Its an absolute BEAST in a dogfight. The delta wing with the canards are excellent for slow speed high aoa stuff, which is why the eurofighter, rafale and griffin all use it. It was originally used on the viggen for short take off and landing, so it makes sense. The compressor stalls would also completely go away with the ja with additional engien thrust, and it has a digital fbw system BEFORE the f16, which used an analogue system until block 40.

    I think it's wierd how they've done a ground attack Viggen but not the air defence version. It would be interesting to see how it does with built in 30mm cannon, Sky Flash and Sidewinders instead of gun pods.

    The Viggen was designed as a multi-role a/c with emphasis on A to G. As a Mach 2 a/c it took on interceptor roles later. The Mirage F1 was also designed as an interceptor and GA a/c with the F1CE being an interceptor, but their differing design solutions have led to different attributes.
    Sven did well, but a bigger hammer might help to prevent the shut-downs.
    Notice how the F1 only killed you when you had no engine - typical Frog.

    The J in AJS37 stands for Jakt which means Fighter in Swedish, so the Viggen was absolutely expected to dogfight when needed. Although, the JA37 Jaktviggen was more of an air to air platform with a better enigne and upgraded avionics capable of bvr. ☺️

      @@GrowlingSidewinder Yes, but Viggen is a supersonic high altitude fighter, just our variant is more tailored for AG strike, but still having its fighter airframe, Mach=2 speed, high ceiling, lots of power, delta wing. Pure fighter JA-37 variant would be even more capable in air combat having AA radar, Fox1 Skyflash missiles and engine way less prone to compressor stall.

      @@GrowlingSidewinder As far as I understand the original AJ 37 (attack-jakt = attack-hunt/pursuit/chase) was designed as a strike fighter with a primary attack role and a secondary fighter role being very much part of the design (it was originally intended to replace both the Saab 32 Lansen in the attack role and the Saab 35 Draken in the fighter role). Then in the late 70s the JA 37 (jakt-attack) came along with a primary fighter/interceptor role while maintaining a secondary ground attack role. The airframe was never designed purely to do just one thing like the A-10 or Su-25.
      Fun fact, Saab entered the 37 (in a new proposed "Eurofighter" configuration) into the ACF competition in the mid-70s. This was before the JA 37 version came out. Imagine an alternative timeline where they picked the Viggen instead of the YF-16... =)

    The JA 37( C, D, DI upgrade/variants) introduced in 1979 was a fighter-interceptor opposed to the AJ 37. It rocked the Ericsson PS 46/A radar which could support the RB-71 Skyflash medium range AAM.

    I was expecting a bit more from the Mirage F1 considering it was against the ground attack version of the Viggen. I imagine the air to air version of the Viggen, the JA 37, would eat the F1 for breakfast. Especially the JA 37D which had upgraded avionics and AMRAAMs.
