Link to video A Danish F-16 pilot comments on two DACT engagements with an Italian Eurofigther Typhoon. In the first part the Danish pilot has a possible gun opportunity, but is too close and heading for the deck. In the second engagement the pilot achieve two gun 'kills'. The pilot comments that the F-16 has good manuverability against the Typhoon, in particular in the lower speed portions of the envelope.
Link to video Also a classic: Norwegian Viper compilation. Note the most excellent roll at 3m 10sec.

Nice video, I would like to know what were the ROEs for the Typhoon? The Viper seldom pulled 6Gs or more. It reminds me of a picture or video of an F-5 (on this website) sitting a little high camping on the tail of a F-22A.
When one reads the HUD of the F-5, one sees the altitude ?15,000-ft. air speed ?400-mph and, only pulling 5Gs!
Without ROEs, the F-5 would be gobbled-up in milli-seconds by the F-22A! |

The Viper(s?) pulled between 2 and 4.3 g at the time the Typhoon(s?) were in the gun sight. Max g displayed during the first sequence was 6.6 g (it was before that sequence). You have to take into account the speed of the aircraft as you need a certain speed to pull a certain number of gs. At low speed the gs are actually much lower, perhaps ~3 g max at 200 kt. Of course this depends on the aircraft type as well. |

Gotta love that EEGS funnel...that guy was hosed. The blanked out part of the HUD video was missile information.
