    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.

      As impressive as airpower is, the absolute supernatural horror a single modern naval destroyer would cause in WW2 is far more dramatic. Even on the ground, a single modern MBT, especially at night time, would leave the opponent absolutely filled with terror, not knowing who or what is picking them apart with such ease. This seems surprisingly tame by comparison because at least the bomber crews would have some understanding of the fancy jets zooming past them, the rockets blowing up next to them, and the cannon fire shredding them apart.

      @@snizami Yeah, I think the massive radar arrays and VLS system dumping 80 missiles on some of the modern ships would be pretty outrageous. Nuclear subs that can match destroyers for speed and don't need to be at periscope depth to attack and have cruise missiles would be silly too.
      The F-22 ultimately needs to approach into visual ranges just like other fighters because it can't carry enough missiles to destroy those bomber raids, so it's limited in how WTF it can be. The stealth fighter that needs to enter eyeball range has already sacrificed a major strength - some of its main advantages don't actually matter in these fights.
      Of course, the problem with all this modern shit going back in time is always 'okay, we fired off a full load of ammunition, now what?'

    You should emulate "The Final Countdown", a 1980 science fiction film directed by Don Taylor. The movie follows the USS Nimitz, a modern nuclear-powered aircraft carrier, which encounters a mysterious storm that transports it back to December 6, 1941-the day before the attack on Pearl Harbor. Only this time, you stay and thwart the attack. :) P.S. I typed this all out and saw that several people already beat me to it. Still, this would be so cool.

    So here's the thing. I don't believe that modern day missiles would be as effective against WWII bombers as they would against modern day aircraft for a couple of reasons. The main reason is that modern day aircraft are packed with vital systems that are required for flight so a missile hit (or near hit) has a good chance of disabling the aircraft where as a bomber back then didn't have sophisticated flight controls and avionics. And they are quite large and their vital systems are spread out over a larger area. Another thing to consider is that each missile is essentially not much more than a flack burst sending shrapnel into the bomber... when you consider that most bombers can survive dozens of hits by flack shells it makes sense that the missiles would have a similar effect. To address why it appeared as though the AIM-9's were doing better than the AMRAAMS this would make sense as well. AIM-120's being radar guided would hit center mass dumping most of their effect into the fuselage which would soak up much of the shrapnel, whereas the AIM-9's are heat seekers and would lock onto the engine exhaust and deliver the majority of their damage to the engines. Generating a much greater effect on the target.

    The movie The Final Countdown presented one similar scenario but, unfortunately, they got yanked back before we could find out what one modern carrier could’ve done to the Japanese task force off Pearl Harbor.

    Try a f 15 ex with max payload. The reason I say that is because the planes can carry something like 10 - 12 missiles . And when you have something like 80 of them that means you have 800 to 1000 missiles.
