I don't recall seeing the single engined jobs, at the beginning of this vid, before!

I've never felt so frustrated....... died so frequently/spectacularly/or needlessly....... yet had so much fun, in a long time.

That was one of my first thoughts (After I put my jaw back in its normal place) At least for the single engine ones.

yes first ones are fake, look at video at 1.27 you can see the blacked out cockpits and spindly landing gear... the later ones look more real and matches other videos I have seen of the capabilities of the Mig/Su aircraft in displays.
