B-52 Aerial Refueling - RIMPAC 2010

[blueticecho]

I wonder if the bigger the craft the smaller the port ?

[4325air]

On the B-52, what is that item under the right wing between the two engine pylons? It is not a weapons rack, and looks like a blue seeker head or some such. There is nothing at that location under the left wing.

@4325air , yep, it's a LITENING II targeting pod

[4325air]

@xxxSPEEDYxxx Thanks much. Knew I wasn't losing my mind....just yet ! This would be in the same genre as a LANTIRN pod?

Amazing wing flex shown there in detail and nice (aleron (spelling?)) movement shown aswell. Lovely. Good video.

[Arunp47]

[SnakColors]

it seems that some turbines are turned off? is that true?

the B52 is flying or refueling with some engines off?

@SnakColors

The first stage of this engines is inlet vanes. they are not moving/static.

this is why they look as they not are rotating.

at this speed, if an engine would be shut down, it would windmill anyway(rotating)

507th MXS!!!!  This is one of my pigs!!

[a1cjw1347]

That 135 is one of our planes! The 507th and the 137th is the first and only Reserve / Air National Guard merge.

The 135 with the F108's (military designation) cannot "fill up" an airplane. It will give it enough gas to fly its route to its final destination or run it into another refuel track to finish it's mission. Depending on the fuel load the 135 has, it can give an airplane a lot of gas.

1:12 PENETRATION!!!!!!!!!! lol 

[MessinaDesigns]

that was cool and at 1:17 it looked unreal....

[pilot588]

Man! The wing view for take-off make the engines sound nice and quiet...

now if planes like these were alive, that's how they would mate! lol

[EarDrugzTV]

Airporn!

[TheExrov]

@EarDrugzTV Haha

[4Freedomrider]

Cool the only tankers we see are the ones spraying Chemtrails. WTF!

[gphanner1]

Thats a KC-135R and a B-52H. The last B-52 came off the production line in 1962; the last KC-135 came off the production line in 1964. Used to be that one KC-135 could fill up one B-52 -- if the KC was close to its takeoff base. Don't know what they can do now with those nifty CFM-56 engines.

Scary looking wing bounce.

There is no Greater Military than American.

Glad to see them protecting us.

0:47 nice moment to point your finger LOL

[davidperi]

How many planes can a tanker fill-up? Let´s say the B-52s.

Airplane sex

[mutt1256]

Grea video where do sign up to go? Both the B=52 and KC-135 look awsome.

[Olaf16]

[AmfleetII]

I've got a bug splatter on the center cockpit window, could you scrub that off too?

[oneofthemdeals]

[xmodfreak2011]

@oneofthemdeals Looks like a KC135 to me, if thats what you meant.

[Sveninou]

@xmodfreak2011 You are correct, KC-135 with CFM56 engines :)
