Fighter Pilot Dogfights Iranian Jets in Combat Sim with F-15C | Part 1

About this video

Max narrates a combat flight simulation in which he flies an F-15C against six Iranian F-5 jets (nicknamed “Hesa Kosar”). He attempts to shoot them down beyond visual range using AMRAAM missiles but is ultimately hit and experiences engine fires after losing track of one remaining adversary. Max acknowledges the loss and says he will retry the challenge in a follow-up video.

Key takeaways

• Max demonstrates beyond-visual-range engagement tactics using the F-15C’s radar and AMRAAM missiles in a simulated scenario against Iranian F-5s
• Max explains that the F-15C is designed primarily to carry its expensive radar to high altitudes for air-to-air combat
• Max recounts losing situational awareness of the final opponent, which he says led to him being shot down despite successfully engaging multiple targets
