I don’t believe that the black bird or the the h 10 should ever retire
I don’t think there are aliens flying around everywhere. It’s the US with stuff so advanced we have no clue and seems like aliens to us.
I find it energizing to watch it as I wake up.😁
Ok. so when they hit the speed of sound they get a sonic boom. But do they get a second sonic boom when they pass double the speed of sound and so on ??. Or is it just the one time ? And further, does this phenomena happen in reverse ?. In other words, does the boom happen again when they slow back down ?.
Saw global hawk flying over Ukraine 🇺🇦 and western Europe one time on a flight radar app I had on my phone. To do surveillance in eastern Ukraine
Is this the timeline where SkyNet owns Google&YT?
CAN I GET A FOLLOW UP HERE? I WANT TO SPEND MONEY ON THIS INTRO. NOT THE SOUND, NOT THE SHOW. HOW DO I PAY, AND PAY RESPECT TO THIS. IM NEARLY SHAKING MONEY AT THE LAST TIED FRAY OF WHAT I FELL IN LOVE WITH AS A KID. . STICKERS GOSH DARN IT..
Loved this show. Tribute to humanity, engineering and overall mankind’s potential. Bad stuff included; at least we’re still here. Born in 1959 and learning the vast progress of the prior century, by now I had expected anti-gravity, fusion drives and moon colonies. Still some wonder out there but Modern Marvels today? On what? TikTok and dating apps?
So, hopefully today we have some kind of Elastic Container for the fuel so it doesn’t leak while on the ground!
For those asking why they don’t do these shows anymore. Is because we now have UFO’S and don’t want anybody to know.
I saw global hawk loitering over Ukraine 🇺🇦 during recon during the Russians invasion of Ukraine on a radar flight tracking app
I’m sosprised not more companies are into quad copter air craft you can make quad copter do almost every thing except jump from them
You forgot to tell them about the UFO that was shadowing the X15 and easily flew around the X‑15 while it was flying forward. So said the X‑15 test pilot.
Was there a mention of the the German ME-262? It is recognized as the first operational jet powered fighter.
cant imagine how far software sensor tech and camera tech has came since this video was made! today there would be no fuzzy blobs and you would be getting info at high resolution and 30+fps with ai and probably be able to decode the target dna from space too lol
30:01 I totally remember that. During this time I lived about 40 minutes from Whiteman. After never seeing them, for a number of weeks it became common to see B‑2 Stealth bomber flying over at very low altitudes. They roared loud as heck!!! One of the pilots later said that the B‑2 was not designed for comfort on long missions. There was a space in the cockpit area that could hold one of those old Wal-Mart folding lawn chairs that could lay flat so they put a lawn chair in it and took turns sleeping on the 40+ hours trip lol. 1.2 billion dollar plane and a $8 law chair is the finishing touch lol.
And here we are 20 years later and the b‑25 Raider has been unveiled, a smaller cheaper b2 that can be manned or unmanned and is the first 6th generation aircraft. Oh and predator drones have been killing terrorists and civilians alike for 20 years for the same reason they !mention it would be a bad idea in this video: limited information. We think so.some is somewhere so we click a button that flies a mission and drops a bomb. Turns out they were all civilians inside that house. Oh well the computer didn’t know better. No one gets in trouble and we do it again.
That’s nothing TicTac shape UAP traveling at 20,000 miles an hour
With anti-gravity technology coming to a complete stop or turning 90° or 180° without slowing down 5000 miles an hour that’s nothing. Keep in mind with zero signs of any propulsion system. This carbon carbon is junk. These are alien alloys made in space 20,000 times stronger than carbon carbon.
F‑117 is a bomber not a fighter has no gun or a.a. missiles strictly a bomber and ik know this because my step was a test pilot for that goblin
top gun mavrik
32:15. Inside views of aircraft manufacturing facilities are just so amazing to me, especially military lines. They were so rare in the 70s and 80s when I was a kid in love w aviation, and when I stumbled on a picture of one I’d study it with a magnifying glass! I really should have been an analyst:). Although they’re relatively commonplace now, with Russia and China even contributing, it still fascinates me to see an airplane in pieces with its clothes off, so to speak.
It reminds me of a time a buddy showed me a DC‑9 or MD-80 in the Midwest Express maintenance hangar undergoing a C or D check. All the interior was removed and it was just its metal bones. Laf, what shook me a bit was it seemed like a bunch of kids were doing all the work, with AC-DC blasting in the background.
Ah the sound when you hear Aviation Week and Jane’s Defense. Nostalgia
Reality TV sucks
This is real good viewing
One Crashed in Winslow Arizona? Somebody probably should hat told the Pilot to “Take it Easy” on the Throttle…
And the Raptor just got its first air to air kill
Lighter-than-air concepts were extensively explored under the Missile Defense Agency commencing in 1983. Advances in enabling technologies (stealth, optics, directed-energy, et al) suggest that China is not the first or foremost in ‘Near Space’.
When the F‑22 destroys a satellite, THEN it will be relevant.
In all instances (terrestrial networks or ‘wireless’), Information Dominance (at the speed-of-light) will be the determining factor.
9:48 The X‑15 this plane took us to Mach 6 its pilot was Neil Armstrong who would later land us on The Moon.
14:50 The Blackbird he’s not talking his speed and altitude is classified but still Blackbird is a legend when it comes to flight and this plane paved the way for The Shuttle which would arrive a decade after The Blackbird made its first flight.
HERE I GO AGAIN.…..THE S R
71 WAS NOT FIRST.….
THE Y F 12 A WAS.. ITS EVEN FASTER.…..THE PLANE HAS FLOWN AT
128.000 FEET.……IT WAS
DESIGNED AS AND HAS CARRIED THERMONUCLEAR
ROCKETS.….4 OF THEM…
THE BADDEST NUCLEAR
ATTACK WEAPON OF ALL
TIME.….EACH ONE COST
ONE BILLION.….
30:46 The Raptor the King of Stealth and the most costly. This is why we don’t give these planes to anyone they are expensive and we don’t want them in the hands of Commie China, Russia, and Iran who are known to steal our secrets.
The SR-71s were based at Beale AFB, not Edwards.
Only 2
The boys and their toys, what a waste of money.
Once all the multi-year Arctic ice is gone: An inevitability all the Oil Companies are greedily awaiting (the Blue Ocean Event) then: a Pandora’s box will open, having to do with massive methane release due to accelerated destabilization of both permafrost and undersea clathrates. These unfortunate events will in all likely hood yield a new Permian Extinction all the red flags are already present. We are under the gross misconception that we are a good species going somewhere important and at the end of the day we will correct our errors and God will smile on us. It is delusion. Farley Mowat.
Aspect Ratio is wrong. a 4:3 show has been stretched to 16:9 and everything is short and fat.😡👎
As far as that global hawk goes, don’t believe all the hype behind it. I worked on that aircraft and to be honest it’s an overhyped overpriced pop-riveted together piece of junk. Sure, it can do surveillance, give clear images, loiter, etc., etc., etc. but from what I have seen and when compared with other surveillance aircraft like the U2 and SR 71 it’s still too pricey and the military is really not getting full bang for the buck with it. The Air Force doesn’t want any more of them and from what I heard are already looking to build it’s replacement. The US Navy has recently ceased production of its version of a called the triton, most notably because the avionics and surveillance packages failed to work as advertised. They built one for Germany called the euro hawk and the Germans were not all that impressed with it and found all sorts of errors. The Japanese had two of them built and from what I’ve heard they have buyers remorse over it.
20:06 this is the Northrup Grumman Y49 it was a prototype and when it went up its pilot Glen Edwards was killed in a stall. Air Force grounded the plane until jet engine technology improved and the end result was this 20:13 The Northrup Grumman B2 Bomber. With this technology perfected Air Force went one better and built one for the 21st Century The B21 Raider.
A jet with a pilot alone over a situation who can face judgment only after the fact or a pilot in a room with armed guards and legal experts and officers. I like the concept of pilot safety and the ability to make pilot changes or make decisions from several perspectives. I prefer the pilot I can grab out of the office chair over one who crashed.
I didn’t know the blackbird was that old. I can’t imagine what we have now. Probably literal cloaking devices (which could theoretically be done with cameras or mirrors)
So why 6mph, 600, 6000? Funny numbers huh.
The first one would be my choice!
F‑15 EAGLE 🦅 104 kills 0 losses in air-to-air combat! F‑22s combat record, it shot down a balloon 🎈!
