    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.

    Do not set Auto-ranging on the gun. Set a fixed distance of 1200m. Activate the PNVS FLIR so you can see through the cockpit bottom and are able to aim below you... and either use rockets instead of Hellfire or if you use Hellfire, try to have George lase and "lock" the plane.
    Still a crazy fight, but you should take every advantage your systems provide.😂

      It’s actually harder than it looks for a jet to dogfight a helicopter because of the speed difference. Jets aren’t built to fly at such slow speeds. However, if the jet goes too fast, there are issues such as the helicopter sitting within the turn radius (demonstrated in both one circle and two circle settings in this video) as well as a very high closure speed.

      They made a training scenario of helicopters against jets in the 80s or 90s. Helicopters won.

    • @slimlacy2
      @slimlacy2 7 місяців тому +10

      As Tarkalak said, heli's actually have huge advantages against jets. ESPECIALLY if they're outfitted with AA missiles.
      They are very "stealthy" on a jets radar, as those radars are optimized for other jets and fast flying things in the air. A chopper can stand still, and work REALLY well close to the ground. It's very hard to track a chopper that doesn't want to be tracked for a jet. And there's no out turning a chopper in a dogfight.
      The major weakness for choppers however, the jet decides the engagement. If the jet wants to go home, there's nothing the chopper can do, the jet can easily evade the chopper, if the jet knows where to evade (can just climb to 40.000 feet and yeet out of there). And the chopper can't just get away from the jet if it wanted to.

      Odds in reality would be pretty in favor of the Apache.
      USAF and Army did some tests called J-CATCH in the 70's that had AH-1 Cobras go up against F4, F15, A10 and A4 aircraft, and in close combat the kill ratio ended up being 5-1 in favor of the helo.
      Basically brought in instructions that aircraft under no circumstances are to engage in close combat with helicopters, and to always use long range stand off weapons.

      The old-school "hot brick" jammer, which only worked against old-fashioned conical-scan missiles (up to 1980s production R-73 Archers), is finally being replaced with Common Infrared Countermeasures. This is a directional laser that dazzles the missile sensor, much like the Felon is supposed to have, actually. If this Felon is firing modern production R-73 then the old jammer is not helpful and would if anything better be left off.
      On the other hand, it would be interesting to test older IR missiles against the DCS AH-64, because in theory, at least some of them should get "caught" by the jammer and fail to connect.

    Operation.j catch was when the US tested its own attack Choppers against fighter craft, such as the eagle. It turned out that the helicopters were actually able to dominate the fight, going to show that an elevated attack platform that can maneuver and Hoveround is a bit slow, might be far more dangerous than anyone expected if equipped properly. We need to fit some LPI Radars and amraams or aim 260 s on them, maybe a IRST, some stealth characteristics, and let them go all SPAMRAAM on foes. They did actually prove themselves in those exercises the US tested them with

    The SU 57 was most of the time flying below the Apache. I don't know if that was the setup, but it is to the SU 57s advantage to always stay above the Apache. The Apaches gus are below the fuselage and would be difficult to target anything above it
