Nicely made little video with interesting special soundtrack.

Seems the "Rammjäger" concept doesn't work in Bos - on such an impact, the Russian bomber should have also broken up.

 

By the way: can you or anyone else explain to me, why the nose of the Bf 109 is wobbling so often?

With such an airspeed, a heavy craft like a WW2 fighter should not make such spastic movements.

Hi
First tell him that I'm a medium pilot in progression.
Flying so close to the ground not to be discovered, and at that speed the trim is slightly pushing upward, so you have to give the attitude to moments with touches of leverage down.
If it were the opposite, I would risk hitting the ground at any time.
Finding the right trim at every moment is complicated.
If you fly near the ground while scanning the horizon looking for contacts compensate the plane up.
If on the contrary you fight very high compensate the nose down, so you will not have the problem of losing speed because of the attitude.

 

At least that's my experience

Greetings too!

I did not only mean your aircraft in this video, Pienoir - the Bf 109 generally often shows a shaky, wobbling nose in combat flight.

And I would like to know why that is. It feels totally unrealistic to me.

I could not tell

The 109 is a nervous fighter.

You have a lot of power in the nose.

Of course it's about taking it compensated to lose as little energy as possible.

But this is not always that easy.

In theory yes, but in practice and in the heat of combat, sometimes you can not even trim the fighter because you are worried about killing and not dying.

I do not know how realistic it is.
