Yeah, I know right. That close fighting was insane. That’s the kind of dog fighting they keep trying to tell us is in the past as fighter jets. These days are supposed to fly so far apart that they can’t even see each other with the naked eye, primarily using long-range missiles to shoot each other. However, this is based all purely on assumptions and calculations by fighter manufacturing companies in militaries, including the US and the UK, who haven’t had to do this kind of fighting for a long time and have based all on Sims and beliefs of future warfare. Even though these aircraft involved are very old by comparison to things like the typhoon, F22 and F35 And where indeed, intended for closer combat than the most recent modern fighter jets, they are still more advanced than the more gliding, tight, propeller, driven aircraft of old, and it’s crazy that actually see them performing manoeuvres like this, which feels like something straight out of a movie rather than real life.
