Every Viper pilot thinks they have the advantage until the Hornet pulls its nose around. 💀 The low-speed high-alpha of the F/A-18 is a different kind of nightmare in a merge.

Black asso hornet with a red star is something not to shake a stick at!
Thank McDonnell Douglas for Lead Edge Extentions! It's why Boeing made it even bigger on the Super Hornets.
The top gun bell sound will always get me
F-16 is faster, lighter and more maneuverable than the 18
Dude that inverted spin was fuuny ad hell
"pan shot!" 😂
Imagine a hornet with a computerized targeting.
POV: Hornet in war thunder
Stop blaming your lack of skill on aircraft. THe Viper is a better aircraft than the Hornet could ever hope to be. THe F16 has been beating it's ass since day one. The only advantage the Hornet has is an extra engine. It is limited to what 7.5G's and Viper is what 10G's. THe fighting enveloped for the Viper is wider and flatter than the Hornet as well.
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 dando tiro no flatspin 😂😂😂😂
I have tried to put the F16 into a flat spin and have only done it once. Never inverted. Would love to know how you managed that.
I like how you're willing to post your fails, I've seen gamers who only post their good moments and feed off their comment sections glazing them as whichever game's best player.
So its broken?
Ngl, when i use the F16 C model…and the block 40 specifically…. anything within 15km is pretty much toast…and i always use HUD view…what i do is meet in the merge, go almost 90° straight up, then after about 3k feet gained i hit the airbrake, then yank hard left or right with opposite rudder, something about the F16s makes them do a sick maneuver that i win 99% of the time, at least with me being on the offensive side 9 times out of 10
Buster Scruggs!!!!!!
The Hornet will be the first and the last in a real war.
Damn and upside down flat spin, physics just said f you 😅
whats that sound u used for when u realise its a hornet
What about an inverted loop, dive nose down hold the u'ee
You have a throttle and a rudder. Both are amazing for dropping speed in a pinch.
♪ You spin my head ♪
Never one circle a Hornet unless you‘re a Mirage 2000 in DCS! Just stay 2 circle and hope the Hornet will mess up because even there it will be hard.
Keep doing 2 circle on the Deck. You will outrate him.
Fantastic vid.
i never realised how those dogfight tactics explanations sound so gay
This game has bad flight model. F16 has way superior thrust to weight and should outclimb F18 easily. As well as outturn.
Must be inaccurate parameters set in the game.
F-16s almost always clock Hornets in dogfights set in the real world.
Why did you reverse the turn? After he cashed in energy for the initial shot he should have lost the fight when he missed you. You had the energy advantage and threw it away.
"cause of the, cause of the gayness"
Isnt the hornet rather heavy and slow compared to the F-16 in real life?
Air Force VS NAVY Air Force
As a kid I lived in an area where our air forces did their training. Seeing Hornets do dog fighting was exactly like "a knife fight in a phone booth".
330 to 440 corner airspeed in the Viper…Don’t let the Hornet get you into his envelope…His is 310 knots…(So this f-18 pilot told me!)
Going slow with a hornet is a bad idea
“WELL… THAT AIN’T GOOD…”
I wish they’d fix this in dcs. Supposedly irl this is not how it plays out. The f18 is just too dominant in dcs. Yes it’s a great jet but it doesn’t beat an f16 in a dogfight so handily as it does in dcs
I beat you in the hornet, ONCE! we did like 5 passes and you got the rest. but ill remember that one forever.
When he goes over the top this is going to sound crazy but if done right you should in practice beat it.
When you two pass drop speed, extend flaps. Then role to min your profile. Once he comes over you should be slow enough his shots will drop in front of you, forcing him to bleed speed and energy to pull harder for the shot. Pull up and into him while going full throttle. This will force him to either break off or get to slow to keep fighting.
Go vertical
I love these fights. Both planes went head to head for the Air Force contract and the Air Force took the 16. The xf-17 was then modified and improved by the Navy creating the F-18. Two competing designs suited for their respective branches
Eagle Dynamic wants to, "offer the most authentic and realistic simulation of military aircraft…".
Oh well.
So you found yourself 1v1 with a hornet in a Viper and decided to give up your energy advantage?
Lol at the Donut Operator clip….
Wrong about the F18 going straight vertical that's it's weakness
Yea. They overpowered the hornet. Its accurate to say the hornet is arcade rather than realistic flight to how it handles irl. The viper not so much. The fact that the viper loses to the hornet is proof enough bc thats not happening irl. Not like in the sim
16 capable of standing on tail so explain bullshit flatspin😮😢. Its not a 14🙄
8:50 id last forever cause id be so turned off by all those tats i prob wouldnt even be able to get it up lol
