I spent awhile messing around with the various icons and found the "flash" icon makes the link work, but I have no derned idea why!  Since the YouTube icon doesn't seem to work for YouTube videos, it came as a complete surprise to me.  Can somebody 'splain? http://liveleak.com/view?i=77e_1389637750

Also, while I can see the maneuvers demonstrated would be useful in aerial combat, they look completely crazy to me (yeah, like 3D R/C) and nothing I would want to do or watch being done. Not artistic, not really aeronautics, either. But it sure would be a cool trick to get a bogey off your 6...sort of like flying AMA Combat with a 120 mph Bi-Slob.  H^^ Steve

Hmmm.  The canard deltas shown up to 1:30 aren't actually Russian - maybe Chinese J-10s or something. Also, they're models and not real aircraft...  The Su-35 is real enough, but the thinking has generally been that those sort of manoeuvres aren't necessarily that useful in air combat.  Sure, you might be able to shake the guy off your 6, but then you're in a very low energy state and an easy target for his wingman. 

Still, very spectacular and impressive flying, of both models and real ones.

Reminds me of a comment by a Swedish ice-speedway rider about his Russian opponents: 'Russians all have beeg muscles and crazy brains...'
