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.

    Its important to note that not being a good dogfighter is not the same as not being good at air to air combat. An F15E with eight AMRAAMs/AIM9X is a very good air to air fighter because of its powerful sensors, speed, thrust, long range and combat persistence.

    The issue with the F-15E is the CFT on the jet. Once the F-15C were removed from England a few of the Strike Eagles were reconformed without the CFT which give the Eagle much better performance. They did this because they needed Eagles that could do Combat Patrols in Poland late last year and this. I didn't fly E models just the Abinos, aka C's and in reality when you removed the tanks you have an hoped up C model with better intergraded systems because most are newer version of the F-15C. It's one of the questions I need to ask RASBEZ in a forum if the tanks can be removed because I love to see how they perform w/o them.

    Now I am the world's biggest Eagle fanboy, but the Mud Hen shares only its basic silhouette with the F-15D. There is over 1,200kg worth of reinforcing of the airframe to strengthen it, necessitating the more powerful GE F-110 engines over the P&W F100s in the F-15A - F-15D and its export derivatives. There is also the somewhat reduced by far from negligible affect that the CFTs (Conformal Fuel Tanks) impose on the airframe of the Mud Hen when compared to a pair of traditional drop tank. Now the F-15EX shares little with the lineage of both the Eagle and Mud Hen, aside from its silhouette. The EX has a fully digital control system, so the older hydraulically actuated control surfaces are out with electric motors now taking inputs from the pilot via the new fully digital flight computer and moving the control surfaces. The EX is also supposed to be lighter, given that its airframe incorporates a greater percentage of composites over alloys than the -C and -E Eagles. The EX is also designed with open architecture systems, which makes incorporating new weapons and upgrades a much simpler endeavour over aircraft like the F-22 which were designed and built before the advent of open architectures.

Being aware of this i just said that i'm curious about seeing these two engineering masterpieces going in a direct fight, being dogfight and/or BVR.

A scenario in which it would have to go deep into enemy territory and take out some key installations and at the same time try to pave it's own way through enemy SAMs and ADFs. All based on your immagination and skills.

    I bet when a lot of people were thinking dog fight, they were thinking BVR not guns. Which you could easily argue is not a dog fight. I’d think the F15EX is going to be a huge BVR threat though since it’s got such a powerful radar and can carry so many missiles. A fighter has to make it to the merge, and what is it 16 missiles he can take? All he has to do is keep shooting at you and pushing and if he runs out, just go home and re-arm.
