If you enjoy war thunder or are looking forward to Microsoft flight simulator 2020, 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.

In this video we go for a classic world war 2 dogfight between the British spitfire and the German BF109 this battle was obvs something that happened frequently on the western front of the war and particularly around the battle for Britain and I believe in the Malta theatre as well and in some areas in the Africa Campaign.

Being in a fight against a bandit in a better energy state makes things a lot harder and its something the Spitfires dealt with often which really shows you the size of the balls these guys were dragging into the cockpits of these spitfires. I remember reading that during the battle for Britain the Germans were loosing a lot of bombers so they ordered the BF109s to fly with the Bombers and escort them in formation which left them slow and basically killed their energy advantage and made it a lot easier to shoot them down. Dogfights back then were something special and the guys participating on both sides really were brave men. Thank you to TheLastTaco for helping with this and all of you for watching. Much Love.

love the WWII fights, wish we could see more of them here!

the canopy glass looking "scratchy" is actually very accurate, let me tell you this. In those birds they used plexiglass and looks like that if the sun reflects on it. I`m an ex glider pilote where the canopys are (or back then at least were) made from the same material. The visual effect is exactly the same as it was in real life when I was sitting in a glider and watched roughly into the direction of the sun. And just like in dcs it could sometimes be hard to identify other planes flying close to you somewhere. Pretty much the reason why especially trainer gliders used to be painted in bright orange colours or a mix of red and white.

"nothing can out turn a spitfire"

A6M: hold my sake

Bf 109: it’s over Spitfire, I have the ground.
Spitfire: you underestimate my turn rate.

This truly was the golden age of dogfighting and fighter planes in general.

I was just wishing I could find a channel which does Growling Sidewinder style dogfight breakdowns with warbirds. And here the next day is the actual Growling Sidewinder with a warbirds video!

That hammerhead by the 109 in the second fight was nice

[patthewoodboy]

Heres a story from my Auntie. She was in "Old Harlow" Essex .near the Green man Inn, It was sometime in August 1940, there was a dog fight going on over head and she was being showered by spent cartidges

Hey man, I know you're all about the 1v1 dogfights, but I think something like this - with like 4 ship v 4 ship would be a lot of fun. A lot of the dynamics of how these planes fly and how you fight them changes when you add extra people into the mix. I think it would be interesting to do a cliffs of dover type dealy.

[brycewilson]

Man, I don't think I could've been a WWII pilot either. It's just so insane! That's probably why the pilots had good respect for each other, even for enemy pilots. Great flights!

[Hunter_]

As someone who likes planes but doesn't know anything about air combat, I really do appreciate your explanations. Thank you!

[Invalidar]

the way you narrate these fights along with the music really made this a soothing dogfight.

[Pathfinder_tua]

That manouver to go vertical to stall and drop the nose and fire from above was beautiful. Deserved the kill. Awesome move by growling.

[rallySeo]

I'd love to see Growling cross over into IL-2. You've done a lot for the DCS community, but there's a whole other mirror universe of IL2 players, streamers, etc.

In the late 2000s, our fix came like this.

"Relive the battle, dissect the tactics. Relive . . . the Dogfights."

Now, we get spoilt by GS.

[NRT]

In that last climbing sequence, he was "hanging on the prop" as his aircraft began to vertically "torque roll" (note - it takes massive amounts of static thrust for a propeller driven aircraft to execute this maneuver). It sounded like he cut his power to follow you as soon as he saw your nose drop.

[jackclarke]

That spit is a beautiful piece of engineering

[rustyshackleford]

That everyday improving damage module. Love it.
Yes, 109 was so dominant scary indeed.
Forgot which German ace wrote on his memoirs in the eastern front, with air superiority, about only diving on targets if enemy was oblivious to his presence. Working every single time, making him rack up victories.

Just to think of the amazing skill and damn right bravery of the pilots on both sides during WW2, its incredible what they managed to do with the little they had
