Syrian lead turn in round 3. I messed up, learn for next time, awesome fight buddy.

That was a great performance. Had me gripen the edge of my seat the whole time.

GS.......can you do it again but just change places with longshot......I want to see how much of difference the pilot makes

To correctly model the 39 you'd need tailor-made control algorithms as the aircraft uses all control surfaces available to achieve the input command from the pilot. This means for example that the airbrake on one side could be used in some situations when rudder input is given and the FCS deem it efficient to augment the rudder with it. The FCS can also point the nose in a desired direction briefly to achieve a firing solution, very useful when you need to get a quick firing solution in a fight like this, or if you want to strafe ground targets without losing altitude. None of the special capabilities of the 39 are possible to model in DCS. Only SAAB really knows how this machine behaves in the air. :-) Example: The situation @12:45 the 39 could go extremely high-alpha and achieve a firing solution. At the cost of a tremendous amount of induced drag, but it matters little if you end the fight with the maneuver.

The grippen is such an impressive little fighter.

The Swedish airforce Gripen cleaned up at Redflag Alaska. 10 confirmed kills, F-16's, Eurofighter Typhoons and F-15C's.

Gripengripengripen! Been waiting since you last linked that discord server. As a swede this is a special one.

Perfect! I had 15 minutes left of my break!

Externaly Grippen is so gorgeous! Hope the team in development make internaly more accurate and really Hope in a full fidelity module of this bird soon!!

Wow, Gripen can really pull some tight turn!

Nice vid. I enjoy your channel. Suggestion: it might be interesting for you and your opponent to swap planes. One or two battles with you in one plane and then another one or two flights with you in the other plane. Then we'd get a better feel for the impact of the pilot skill versus the plane's abilities.

What up brotha, I’d like to see you guys dog fight and switch planes. Then we’ll see if its the plane or the pilot that’s superior.

Vid came out just as I come back from making popcorn. Nice timing right there

Looks like you were able to take advantage and bait him into a more slow speed dual that the Viper struggles with. Great fighting GS! Have you checked out the Liberation DCS dynamic mission generator? Might make for some awesome content for your channel, but keep up the awesome work!

Battle of the one-engine wonders.

I've seen you crush others in the Viper so many times, it's crazy to see you come out dominant against it.

GS, it would be enlightening to me if you made a video quicky going over the most common modern fighters you fly with their attributes in 1 circ / 2 circ / BVR fighting. You talk about fighters in relation to their opponent often, but it would be cool to see an overview across all your commonly used fighters.

Very clear explanation. Easy to follow & understand. Well done!

YES!! I've been requesting this for ages! Thank you GR!
