F-16 vs MiG-21, Dogfight Ends With One Hell Of A Scissors Move!

About this video

Max recounts a simulated dogfight in DCS (a flight simulation game) where he flies an F-16 against a gamer named Venom in a MiG-21. Max describes the engagement, including managing excessive speed, experiencing g-strain and graying out, and entering a scissors maneuver. The fight ends when Venom ejects, and Max concludes that the MiG-21 won’t win in a turning fight against the F-16.

• Max describes experiencing physical effects like graying out from g-forces during maneuvering
• Max asserts that a MiG-21 will not have a good day turning with an F-16, though he credits his opponent for fighting well
