  • That's some quick missle firing! :P No delay at all

  • Personally? Having never been a "real" fighter pilot myself, I think the game is so awesome and as close to reality as possible, everything "except" flying a real fighter is second best and this is the closest I will ever get. If you can do better, PLEASE, be my guest and show us.

  • Nice manuvering kill - you don't see that very often!

  • Guys, it's the pilot. Both aircraft are almost perfectly matched. U.S. missle systems are just that much better and the MIG-29's just a little more manuverable. It all comes down to the pilot. That's always how it will be.

  • @Airrage88

    it's not the pilot, that is if yr talking about the major factor in an air combat.

    It's the shaping of the tactical enviroment!

    thats why the F-15 has such a tremendous success,cause it has a massive support of other means(early warning capabilities,safe target aquisition,electronic warfare,etc) that ensure it an almost perfect success!

    But if yr a dumb F-15 pilot u go on "dog fighting" the Su-27 and lose 4 sure(unless the other pilot is even dumber, lol)!!!

  • @thenightfox94 shut up you ignorant american puke

    no one likes your country and its citizens. YOU start atleast 1 war every decade somtimes its 2 a decade. you are the most warlike country since the timurids or the mongols face the facts and stop being ignorant

    no one likes ignorant people. also go on a diet your country is way to fucking fat

    oh yeah your country is SOFT. fucking soft

    grow a pair america and be aman about world affairs instead of always fighting like barbarians

    NOOB!

  • @madedd02 k pal you need to realize somthing. AMERICA ONLY ATTACKS COUNTRIES THAT ARE VASTLY INFERIOR TO THEM IN TRAINING AND EQUIPMENT. When was the last time you picked a fair fight? not since pearl harbour i think. So stop being so fucking self rightious. A MiG-29 with a pilot who has had equivalent flight hours as an F-15 pilot would be a draw. so shut the fuck up jesus christ

    and stop believing all the propoganda you watch on your shitty history channels

  • @FourDollarDoobie Thats because the U.S. is friends with everybody that is even remotely close to 'training and equipment'. The only ones who arent are Russia and China.. both of which are trying to trade with us.. in Vietnam we lost a lot of aircraft.. to call the North Vietnamese inferior would be wrong. What saved our ass then was the guided missile. And since 90% of the time its OTHER countries picking fights and calling us in to bail their asses out I'd say your wrong again.

  • @TheNightFox94 That said... im not trying to be an ass, but were not the only country thats fought countries 50x smaller then us. Despite the fact that the Mig29 remains unproven it was in a sense developed as an equal or atleast partial counter to the F15.

  • @FourDollarDoobie How can you say that, there is no way that you can prove the Mig pilot vs. the Eagle pilot would be a draw. The fact is that the F-15 has a 104-0 win-loss ratio, in other words, it's never been beaten in air to air combat EVER! By the way, this record was made not only by Americans, but Isreal, Saudi Arabia, Japan...ect, all have the Eagle and have contributed to the record. It's not that one country is better than the other, but the F-15 is a far superior war plane. FACT!

  • Sergi, everyone has inferior equipment....that's the idea....lol, you've got a lot of hate, chill out, you should be grateful, no U.S. your still a little toad back in the "Worker's Paradise." Instead of enjoying beautiful Vancouver..so Moochi, svenia..

  • el mig 29 no esta mal o no es feo pero tiene pinta de armatoste, hay algo que no va en ese avion

  • nice music (kingdom of heaven)

  • i still can't seem to get how to land that god damn plane i always end up in smoke

  • Wat game is this??

  • people stealth ist n everiting :f 117 shoot down over bosnia by a 50 year old sam sistems lolol! f22 is good but the pak fa whold dodge all the aim 120 s and fire its cannon agaist a f22

  • @cvonta Haha, good one.. yeah No. Keep dreaming.

  • @GoldLeader881 okay i dreamed but the pak fa vs f 22 that will decide everiting now what do you think if russia joins nato ?

  • @cvonta I have no idea what that has to do with anything. Now, while them joining NATO would be nice, bear in mind it will most likely never happen with the current trends; the level of distrust is still too high, and the existing NATO nations would find the concept of betraying their military secrets to Russia anathema.

  • Pfft wait for the PAK FA

  • :S next time doit against a mig-29s

  • That music is familiar...It's from Ghost Recon isn't it?

  • @KillerZetzz Its from Kingdom of Heaven my friend.

  • @hippiesrno1 Actually I mean't the music that starts at 1:13

  • you know if you people still believe that US planes suck just look at the stats racked up by them v.s the russian planes.

  • for people who don't realise, the F15 in this game is an earlier (80's ish) version of it. Almost everything has improved in the latest versions (very notably the radar)

  • The mig-29 is the best escort plane...The problem is ...The american airforce never seen mig-29 because it's shoot down before they can see:D

  • hei you!!! for f-15 is su-27 no fucking old mig-29!! mig 29 radar is shit and then motors is shit. but f-15 no !! f-15 radars is amazing!

  • nice movie

  • @cvb941 hehe same problem when i start play this press enter

  • I know we germans had MiG29, but why do you choose germany as the enemy?

    USA vs Germany is not like nowadays.

    Beside that, Great Movie :D

    PS: dont take it bad, I love the MiG 29. And I hate the F/A 18 (F15 is ok). Its just I think much of the soviet planes are cooler than some of the americans planes. But this is NOT against america! For example the A10 is agreat G-Attack Plane...

  • Because missles are on second fire button.

  • f15 shot down almost 12 mig 29 but im not sure about su 27

  • Both Mig-29 and Su-27 suck well too much at every single part next to F-15C:P

    Learn some more!

    The F-15 outturns, outclimbs and overall outaccelerates them both, and it's the best BVR aircraft available over them!

    The MIG-29 and Su-27 have a better instantaneous turn rate, but they badly turn constantly next to the Eagle, so they allways loose terrain, slowly but certainly, while the Eagle comes from the back...!

  • @316nadeem as far as I know they haven't even fought each other

  • Americans understand!!! The Russian planes always the best!!!

  • The best in the world russian planes!!!

  • what bullshit...MIG29 would pwn this junk

  • Such a small chance in real life dude....

  • You guess?

    In fact this "GAME" sucks at many things upon realism:P!

    Unrealistic missiles behaviour, as well as aircraft's flight models(even though they seem real, only the turn rate,turn radius and top speed of each aircraft is accurate, while their accelerations aren't that good)

    It's not that it ain't fun, but Eagles and Flankers aren't ever allowed to do flatspins, the MIG-29 may do, as it has no stick limits and has a stable platform, but not the other two.

    Still, the F-15 is better!

  • Prove it mate..., we need proven facts not just talking, i gave the clear info about the Flanker, MIG-29 and F-15 right below:P. And they're as accurate as they can't be!

    Don't belive me? Ask for the people who know more about energy managament and turn parameters of each of those planes!

    Facts not talks!

  • The facts show quite obviously that both the F-15 and the Flanker have almost exactly the same performance.

    Their top speed is both Mach-2.5, their ceiling is both 20,000 metres, they both have eight hardpoints.

    However, the Sukhoi is lighter and accordingly has a faster rate of climb and better power to weight. The Sukhoi is less thirsty allowing for longer range. And the Sukhoi has a larger manuverability envelope. They can turn tighter and can slow fight.

  • F-15 tech facts now: Empty weight: 28,000 lb (12,700 kg) Loaded weight: 44,500 lb (20,200 kg) Max takeoff weight: 68,000 lb (30,845 kg) Maximum speeds: High altitude: Mach 2.5+ (1,650+ mph, 2,660+ km/h) Low altitude: Mach 1.2 (900 mph, 1,450 km/h) Service ceiling: 65,000 ft (20,000 m), NOT the Su-27 Rate of climb: >50,000 ft/min (254 m/s) Wing loading: 73.1 lb/ft (358 kg/m) Thrust/weight: 1.12 (-220), 1.30 (-229) Even if the SU-27 was built to beat the Eagle,this doesn't necesarly mean it can!
  • The Sukhoi has a lower wing loading, It also has a 1000 Pulse Doppler radar allowing it to track 2nd generation stealth aircraft (B-2 and F-117a) whereas the F-15 uses scan wave radar.

    The F-15s plusses however are better electronic warfare systems and a slick BVR targeting system. But these performances are matched by the R-27ER's HARM missile which was designed specifically to deal with the F-15's radar.

    The real reason the Sukhoi is better is because it was designed to BEAT the F-15

  • Mate, do you ever read what you write? R-27 isn't a Harm missile, but a SARH one:P, the F-15 has a lower wing loading and is LIGHTER, not the Flanker..., be carefull on where you do take your info from! Su-27 tech facts: Empty:16,380 kg (36,100 lb) Loaded:23,430 kg (51,650 lb) Max weight:30,450 kg (67,100 lb) Max speed:Mach 2.35 (2,500 km/h, 1,550 mph) at altitude, NOT 2.5:P Ceiling:18,500 m (62,523 ft) Rate of climb:300 m/s (64,000 ft/min) Wing loading:371 kg/m (76 lb/ft) Thrust/weight:1.09
  • @Maverickf22flyer

    "R-27 isn't a Harm missile, but a SARH one:P"

    there are different seeker heads available for the r-27, including infrared and active radar. you should be careful before insulting other people, your statements aren't 100% correct either.

  • @ichlebefuerflipflops Ok, so i wasn't 100% correct then, if the R-27 has more seeker types..., but i wonder how much was the one saying that HARM is an air to air weapon cause that was the point! And sorry about insulting people, i don't like it eighter..., but when i meet the type of people that claim to tell the truth only for what they think it is..., i can't handle my own!

    I usually tell real facts, then when it happens to make presumptions..., i tell it!

  • @ichlebefuerflipflops Thank you!

  • @Maverickf22flyer so what specifically about the missiles is inaccurate? Im really curious.

  • @madedd02 actually the f15 has destroyed several mig 29s without being shot down ever

  • @Inklebonker1 that was cheap though those mig-29's were downgraded versions exported to the middle east they had no BVR ( beyond visual range ) capabilities and the pilots had inadequate training and the F-15's had an AWACS so it was not a fair fight

  • @slapyousilly3 and... how many mig 29s have been shot down and how many f15s have been??

  • @Inklebonker1 only five fulcrums have been shot down by F-15 and those were downgraded like i said , they didn't have the full capabilities of the Russian version of the Fighter teh reason the Eagle has a perfect service record is because its never been up against any real competition before

  • fly to Russia and we will change it! F15 was shot down several times including friend fire

  • @DeathSetler The F-15 has never been shot down by an enemy aircraft in air combat (is that specific enough for you)

  • @DeathSetler The F-15C has a combat record of 104 kills, 0 losses. That is a fact.  What the hell are you doing saying they've been shot down several times? Your statements have no basis in reality. Read a fucking book and learn something before spewing bullshit and trying to pass it off as fact.

  • @AdamB9098 forget about F-15C nowadays it is a bullshit, 0 losses ha! so where did they use them? and against what, Yugoslavia, Lebanon, Gulf War. Absolute air superiority in rogue states against poorly trained Mig-21,23,29 where F-15С was not target number 1 at all! is it all u r so proud of? So the fact that they didn't recognize any losses doesn't make any sense cuz they could also keep it as secret. Fly to Chine or India and u will see (BTW even SU-30MKI outdid F-15C in Red Flag training)

  • @DeathSetler Those "poorly trained" Mig pilots were trained by the Russians, and as for rogue state, I guess anyone can call any country a "rogue state". I supose that you can say that the record was faked, but with that logic, I could say that NO MiG fighter has ever shot down any western built fighter. The records are facts pal, get over yourself. As for Red Flag training, I wasn't talking about training! I am saying the F-15C combat record is 104-0, you can argue when that changes.

  • @Inklebonker1

    thats because F-15 is freaking fast, more than a missile :D

  • @xXxMartin96xXx not quite :)

  • @Inklebonker1 it is but i dont know something, the planes with afterburner are F-14, F-15 and F-16, i know F-18 and F-22 and F-35 dont own an afterburner because they tru to be so fast as theplanes with afterburner are without burn fuel, but are those ones the only ones with A.B.? because i just can see the F-14 is faster than the F-15

  • @Inklebonker1

    are those F-14 F-15 and F-16 the only ones with afterburner? D; and i want know if the F-14 is faster than the F-15

  • @xXxMartin96xXx no all modern aircraft use afterburner and no the f15 is faster than the f14

  • @Inklebonker1

    F- 14 F-15 and F-16 arent the only news, the most new ones are F-22 and F-35, those ones dont got afterburner, but the 3 i mentioned before, are the only ones who got A.B.?

  • @xXxMartin96xXx after burner is used on modern fighter aircraft to acheve a higher speed. yes the f22 and f35 have it its just hidden with the f22.

  • @Inklebonker1

    nop, F22 maybe own a afterburner, but i am sure F35 dont have one

  • @xXxMartin96xXx they all do, there is not 1 fighter aircraft that doesn't have an afterburner.

  • @Inklebonker1

    cheq any documental, the F-35 was maded for go faster, be unvisible, and go so fast as an afterburner plane without that

  • @xXxMartin96xXx look up f35 in afterburner on youtube

  • @Inklebonker1

    ......you catch me.....so F-14, F-15, F-16, F-18, F-22 and F-35 got afterburner?

  • @xXxMartin96xXx f-15 f-14 f-16 f-18 f-22 f-35 ef2000 sr71 f-111 su-30 su-35 mig-29 the list goes on. Most modern fighter aircraft have afterburner.

  • noob video

  • Very nice indeed, makes me want to start flying FSX instead of LOMAC.

  • This *is* LOMAC, not FSX.

  • no f-15s gonna be in service till 2035

  • ВОТ ЗА ЧТО люблю АМЕРИКОСОВ-ЗА ИХ БРЕДОВОЕ ВИДЕО!!! САМИ БАРАНЫ И ВИДЕО ТАКОЕ-ЖЕ!!! ваш ДРЕВНИЙ f-15 С КУКУРУЗНИКОМ МОЖЕТ ТЯГАТСЯ!!!

  • Да? а ты не знал что F-15 появились до Су-27 и мига, и когда советских пилотов тогда спросили каким они хотят новый самолёт они ответили: "таким как f-15!". Лишь это было импульсом развития российской авиации такой какая она есть.

  • F-15 устарел, Су-27 тоже. Пошли времена F-22, F-35, Eurofighter EF-2000 Typhoon и Su-35. У всех у них плюсы и минусы, все они отличные самолёты.

  • Russian pilots are not even close in comparison to US pilots for one simple reason, FLIGHT hours. The Russian pilots only get about 1/20th the hours the American pilots get per year. More flight time=better pilots period!

  • Wrong,

    Sergei Kara,Total flight hours: 4970

    Andrey Pechionkin,flight hours - 4950

    Yuri Polyakov,flight hours: 5105

    Alexandre V. Pavlov, His total flight experience includes more than 2500 flight hours (4000 flights) in more than 20 types and modifications of aircraft.

    One of USAF's best trained pilots,BRIGADIER GENERAL JAMES W. HYATT The general is a command pilot with 3,700 hours, including 700 combat hours, CRAZYHORSE you are a perfect example of a uneducated punk,

  • Ok no reason to get personal, and I will be the first to admit my knowledge of the inner workings of the Russian air force is next to nothing. I was basing that statement off of a documentary I saw about a Russian air force squadron where 90% of the pilots training was book training, and simulation. Due to budget problems they were only getting 5 hours a month actual flight time. Of course this was a while ago and things may have changed.

  • Nope, 54th is right. It's a small elite flying so much, far not every pilot.

    HOWEVER: american pilots prooven to be really bad at dogfighting, as the lost 90% of the training fights against indian pilots who flew older and less sofisticated machines!

    Americans are trained to fire, turn and go home without joining dogfights.

  • love the ghost recon music lol

  • Russian and American Jet fighters have'nt had any proper dog fights so it's impossible to tell wich side would win.

    The MiG's that were shot down in Bosnia, Iraq etc. were poorly equipped and maintained.

  • To bad there are no downloads for airplanes as SU-35, MIG-35,F22 or F35... An update will be good!

  • Mig 35 owns F22,and we'll see oneday who's gonna win ,the east or the west?

  • LMFAO omg that made me laugh!!! F22 would have you fuckers before you even see them. and no im not american!!

  • I hear Americans are droping the F22 project in favour of the less expencive F35's

  • Well you heard wrong, they've bought just under 200 of them.

  • f-22 isnt being dropped we just arent getting anymore than like 180(which is more than enough) the f-22 fighter is the best fighter in the world even compared to the f-35 which will probably be the second best

  • @parK9 loled hard!! And russian? SU-35 , Su-47 ? They have a great firepower an maneuvarability .

  • @parK9

    NOPE not the best fighter in the world. that is ABSOLUTELY arguable and the specs on the SU37 are marginally better across the board.

    The F22 is VERY VERY good. but its not THE best.

  • @frederic470 the only "spec" that really matters is the capability of stealth that the f-22 has and the su37 doesnt. even if they were to meet in close air combat i would have to say it would still come down to the pilot no matter what. another thing is that there are only 2 experimental su-37s and 184 or somewhere around there f-22s so what does it matter

  • @parK9 agreed it comes down to the pilot. strictly technologically the only thing the Su37 lacks is stealth. Im not trying to wage war here.... i just like to watch the evolution of technology and to compare how it develops across the puddle. I couldnt care less about the amount of planes in existence, that depends solely on the countries capital.

  • @frederic470 Can I share something with you? If you think the SU-37 is so good, then why is the Pentagon not producing a large amount of 22's? It's due to the fact that not even 7th Gen fighters would dare to intercept an F-22.. so there is no need to produce many of them. Christ forbid if it ever were in a dogfight.. 1 F-22 could take on 7 SU-37's and it wouldn't even be fair for the Russian's.

  • @HardRockForums I do not think so.

    F22 have some serious problems like price and maintenance.

    One raptor can destroy 7 su27/37, but only on ground.

  • @HardRockForums Um... thats is the most absurd thing ive ever heard... no plane can take on 7 enemies. I think the pentagon isnt building a crapload of F22s because they cant afford to... and because there is no real threat from Russia. they only have a couple of SU37ns.

  • @parK9 Sukhoi T50 PAK FA and SU35BM are quite serious threats for the F22 :S

  • @G4pcta read what i said to "srijanme". the SU35BM.. 3 built not stealth.. in a dog fight yea it would be a threat but so would an f-16. stealth is the only thing making the f-22 better than the rest. since the f-22 is stealth and the su-35 is not the f-22 pilot can use that to his advantage and come up behind him in perfect position before the su-35 pilot even notices or just launch a missile out from 80 miles. T_T

  • @parK9 the F22 is awesme..too bad they only built around 170 of them and then canceled it...and the ones they have, have problems..need fixing..but i think they could beat the SU35..maybe even the PAK FA..when it comes out

  • @G4pcta they cant beat the su35/37 so...

  • @SMJeOma The su-37 is nothing more than a concept aircraft. It hasen't and never will be produced as a frontline active service fighter. Sure it's a nice jet, but you can't use concept aircraft when comparing them to service jets. That's like saying the F-22 will beat the mig-21, but saying it 30 years ago. The Raptor was just a far off idea at that time. The fact is Russia does not yet produce an active fighter to stand up to the F-15 or the F-22, it's not arrogance, it's the facts.

  • @G4pcta before you say something like it comes up about as big as a bird or something dumb like that.. radar systems in planes are made to not pick up birds because then theyd be chasing a bunch of birds and look dumb T_T radars can tell its a plane when its like 5 miles away... youre already dead by that time :[

  • Well actually no. U.S does not have enough money right now to procure 20 squadrons of F-22s like USAF wanted. Instead they will stick with upgraded F-16s and possibly F-15 silent eagle. F-35 will be inducted in large numbers as well cause its not as expensive as F-22 because so many nations are sharing the production cost.

  • @srijanme i know.. its on hold..168 is what is built right now 187 planned..

  • No you better watch out for PAK FA before declaring wats the best

  • @srijanme i posted this a year ago.. besides the PAK FA is not even out yet so.. F-22 is the best fighter and will most likely even be the best fighter after the PAK FA comes out. which is in 2015.. and who knows by then it may be dropped. only took russia 20 years to build something close to the F-22 T_T

  • @parK9 lol ... u do know that almost every great thing on ur country has a russian foundation. Stealth = russian, the f-35 concept = russian, and so on and so on.

  • @SMJeOma Oh? then y did the great Soviet Union collapse in 1989? poverty is a Russian communist concept! and that is a fact u commie scumbag!

  • @Jfoo111 Oh look, a troll. yawn. Say, I see your per capita income is skyrocketing down there in Malaysia...;)

  • @parK9 the f 35 wont be the 2nd best fighter in the world, its just going to be the most maneuverable bomber in the world

  • @parK9 ever heard of sukhoi pak fa? that plane will become the best...

  • @parK9

    the F-14 i think for some rumours it can take 2 small nukes, and i think the best EVER is the F-18

  • We dropped the F-22 because we don't need it right away. Our current fighter aircraft are still the best in the world.

  • That is not a good reason to stop production.

  • You may not think it is, but the government who pays millions to manufacture the fighter aircraft do. If the challenge rises we'll make our more advance fighters. Fact is no American aircraft has been shot down in air to air combat since Vietnam. If we can bring down what is already out there we don't need anything new.

  • IT is true that none of our aircraft were shotdown and that no plane out there can match what we have but that is because we have been setting the bar for the past few decades. If we wait for someone to catch up then it will be too late. Especially now that we are selling the F-35's to other nations. And it is not like we can make these things on a short notice, not to mention the training for the pilots. Also our air superiority fighter (F-15) is old.

  • If it aint broke don't fix it.

  • But that is the thing. It is broke. It is old.

  • How exactly is it broken just because it's old?

  • If it is old it is outdated.

    Also the engineers designed the aircraft for a certain amount of flight hours. A vast majority of those planes are at or beyond their designed service time. So yes, technically they are not broken, but these aircraft will not brake on the runway, they are going to break in flight. A few months ago (if not a year) an F15 broke in half during a high G turn. It was determined that it was due to a micro fracture in the frame.

  • Well gosh, you act like an aircraft has never malfunctioned ever. If that were true and they were so out of date I would not seem them flying overhead all the time. If they were so old we would be hearing everyday about one dropping from the sky. Yes they are old, but we still build new ones. We are at no threat from a nation who can top a F15s superiority so we don't need new aircraft to replace them. The F-15 is going to be around for a long time.

  • Of course not 100% of them are going to break right there and then and falling out of the sky like bricks, but you are risking it. They are past their designed flight life (most of them).

    And if you are going to wait for a country to develop something that can beat the F-15 that you are going to be behind. Why is US on top of the military food chain? Because we set the bar, we always push the newest and greatest.

    F-22 has single handedly took out 7 F-15's.

  • I'd need to see it to believe that an F-22 took out seven F-15s. We don't need to wait to catch up if we already have the F-22. We are waiting on other countries. None of the other super powers have brought out their 5gen aircraft so we don't need to rush any Raptors into production. Till then our Eagles are fine. It's all about know thy foe. We can beat them now, lets not overkill. The can match us now, now we bring out the raptor. That kind of stuff.

  • None of the Eagles are actually past there flight time. Otherwise they go to the boneyard ;) The fracture was just in the perfect spot not to know anything was happenning even with x-ray. They fixed the issue and it is over with.

  • just decided to not add 7 more to the order.

  • well Mig25 is fast,because it is lighter than any other Aircraft like F16 or even Mig29,i'll tell you what?oneday my father was watching on his Radar an F16 following Mig25 the F16 couldn't catch the Mig25 because it was fast but i belive the speed right now doesn't really matter,what really matteres is the Radar range,but i've heared a new version of Mig29 but what u said about F35 isn't currect F35 owns it!fersure!

  • The MiG-25 is anything but light. It's up there with the MiG-31 and Tu-28 as one of the heaviest fighters. Its speed comes from its engines, aerodynamics and structure.

  • gooood video thanks alot

  • mig-35 rulez

  • the mig-29 in this clip has Luftwaffe(german air force)'s sign for sure.

  • Mig-29 rulz

  • i tink this audio is from red flag and if so it was f 15s and su 27s involved.

  • Ladies and Gets, this is to be the first day for youtube supporting 16;9. I always wondered when it would happen. Just wanted to comment on this. It's great. Damn, I love it!

  • Hey guys.

    Please answer this question:

    Has there ever been a fight between american after60's produced aircrafts and MiG-29's? If yes, then where and when and in which war? If you know, then please reply, this is very important for me.

  • Yes in Bosnia and Iraq, US F-15's dueled with Bosnian mig-29s and destroyed them, same with Iraq, but thats probably due to the quality of the pilots, not just the aircraft alone. This happened in the 80's to current

  • thanks so much:)

  • Iraq army use old versions of this plane. They haven`t got good pilots. But also the plain is good enought to fith with F-15 and F-16. It not bad plane. It is very good plain.

    The main probltm is, that it is a plain not for novice and unexpiriense pilot. The plane does not forgive mistakes

  • the irakis ad some decent mig25 pilots

  • yes, there is. in the operation 'desert storm', which is about a few years back. it is the war that us fought with iraq. the iraq mig-29 fought with the us f-16 and it lost. it is not the mig-29's problem because everyone knows that the us use satellites and air-borne jets and there is an advantage. so i don't think mig-29 is really that bad.

  • In Bosnia, it was SAM that downed Serbian Mig-29, not any F-16 or F-15. In Iraq, it was about the quality of the pilots and russian didnt supply iraqis best equipments and spare parts. IN Kargil war, Indian Mig-29 locked on Pakistani F-16 but F-16 retreated and Indians held their fire. The Federation of American Scientists claims the MiG-29 is superior to the F-15 and other US fighters in short aerial engagements because of the Helmet Mounted Weapons Sight (HMS) and better maneuverability

  • Incorrect. In that engagement on the audio it was two AMRAAMs fired from F-15C serial 86-0156. Yugoslav pilot Col Peric ejected from one of the MiG-29s. His wingman didn't survive. Eve Col Peric admits that both MiG-29 were downed by the F-15s.

  • and wih the latest development of Mig-29-the Mig-35, we have world' best short range multirole support fighter and surely the best dog fighter in the world. americans might deny this true info cause they surely wont and dont like the truth, when it's against them. and put a good Russian/German pilot in a mg-29 and pit him against USAF F-15/F-16. Americans will be grilled.

  • the f 15 and f 16 own the su27 and mig 29 and the yf 23 can own su 30mk su 35bm and su 33 and the f 22 can own su 37 and mig 35 and su 47 the cloest to the raptor is the mig 35 the su 37 doesnt come close

  • well i'll tell you what?Su 47 owns F22 raptor,and for ur informations F\A 18 in 1991 were shutted down by an old Soviet Iraqi Anti Air so we'll see how will the F22 hang on with the Mig 35,it won't even Catch it it flys over 6 times the Sounds speed..

  • There are no fighter jets that can even get close to 6 times the speed of sound. Especially the mig 35. the fastes plane that can be considered as a pure fighter is the mig 25, at mach 3.2. besides, the mig 35 would be shot down before it even detects the f22.

  • err gromell, F-16 will be going out of duty in a few years for US, wont really matter much. Lets see the Mig-35 vs F-22. O wait, it wouldn't, because Mig-35 would be shot 22 miles before it even gets a radar signal. Same for Su-37. You cant kill what you cant see.

  • well you are right, the f-22 is the best aircraft right now

    but gromell is right when say: "we have world' best short range multirole support fighter and surely the best dog fighter in the world"

    werever, if i have to make a choice between dogfigth king or long range king i select the long range, dont you agree whit me?

    about the german pilots and the russian pilots, thats true, isent the same engage a luftwaffen pilot or a rusky pilot than a poor iraki "pilot" :)

  • "true info?" BULL SHIT. there is no immediate proof that russian pilots are better than US pilots. It MAY be true, it MAY not, but its not quite a fact yet.

  • How you get it so damn smooth?

  • Beautiful camera work and the visual and audio editing is top quality 5***** :)

  • Superior direction, editing and camera work. Artistically brilliant.

    On a subject of Mig29 v. F-15, there is no comparison. Mig29 was designed as a small front line fighter, comparable to F-16. Same as F-16, Mig 29 would slice F-15 in CAC, but unfortunately it would not get there in a first place, same as F-16, because F-15 will kill it five time during BVR.

  • Actually, I should correct.. everything I can find on the FGA-35 version of the Zhuk-M says 200km against 5m^2 RCS, not 3.

  • 200 km is pretty much a match if not advantage over F 15 avionics, don't you think...

  • Dont match a radar that is TO-BE fitted on the Mig-29 or other variants COMPARE CURRENT F-15s to CURRENT Mig-29s.. F-15 aces them... And about you saying that F-86 wasnot supperrior to Mig-15 is another myth of Russian Fantasy... I agree that pilot matters but some of Korean Mig-15s were flown by WW-2 Russian aces... So no objection there.. Mig-15 got owned!

  • Dude, even discovery channel admitted that Mig 15 was a better plane, come on - go check all their performace abilities if you don't trust me... Some (very little) so the pilots did the job... About 29's - they are in an upgraid status - so its pretty much done than...

  • The MiG had its advantages, and the sabre had its advantages. Ultimately though the deciding factor is pilot skill. Chuck Yeager once flew two mock dogfights with another American fighter pilot, one with Yeager in the Sabre and the other pilot in a captured MiG, and the other fight vice versa. Chuck, an experienced WWII double ace who had more time in the cockpit for both planes, won easily both times.

  • It always came down to a pilot that's why Americans scored more kills, yet overall Mig was a better plane, may be slightly better but still better...

  • The MiG-29 is roughly equivolent in most aspects of aeronautic performance to the F-16 (thus more agile than the 15) but barring any future upgrades the 15's radar system is far superior in it's look-down shoot-down capability. It can keep a lock more effectively against a target much more reliably than the MiG. In a dogfight, if I recall the 15 has superior thrust to weight ratio so the pilot would want to stay fast, and keep the fight in the vertical.

  • We were speaking about Mig 15 before... Anyways - war games between germans and americans proved the superiority of Mig 29 jet over F 15 in a dog fight...

  • So we were, so we were... I must've really failed to pay attention when I posted that last comment, my bad, lol!
