F-22 and F-15 Sonic Boom

[fanferbtheman]

you clumsy bitch

[DaviLima90]

i hear that everyday damn day at my base in NM

[blackopsoldschool]

way to hold the camera still

[evymetal95]

@blackopsoldschool if he held it still we woulnt see the plane. figters *move*. way to mess up a hate comment

[p0wer5000]

I love that Shit....

[LP640Murcielago]

How far does the boom sound tavel??

[sadekgheidan]

@LP640Murcielago Depends on the energy generated by the airframe, but generally a sonic boom can travel for tens, if not hundreds of KM's/Miles.

[LP640Murcielago]

@sadekgheidan ohh shit, cheers mate

[drybones102]

SHIT!!!!! THOSE 2 AIRPLANES R FREAKIN FAST!!!!

[xKalphax]

ooh... im am so sorry, that was the sound of me popping my bag of Doritos open in the background as i watched, and sorry for misleading everyone in thinking that was cause by the plane

[1kelseysmith]

Ironic if you turn it up really loud you can hear it b4 the boom probably because it was already past you b4 the boom so sound was emphasized

[DoctorCrown8]

now make it do a sonic rainboom

[purplenoise2002]

Always shaky and blurry video. It must be fake! (Just kidding!)

[Mustmale]

Guile: sonic boom!!!

[MrKyvegas00]

0:19 

[JOECHOPYTACO]

I like the song used in this, I know for sure its by Bee-doop, but it sounds alot like boo-deep

[slash9764]

its F-22 RAPTOR

[nickelback303]

my bad!!! i had taco bell

[steinjib]

a f 16 took a lowpass + sonic boom over my house. paintings and pictures fell of the wall, and glass shattered.. Soz 4 bad english

[LukeRulez72]

Theoretically, if you could open the cockpit of a plane moving at more than the speed of sound, and you farted, would that create a different sonic boom than the aircraft?

[greenjeens]

holy shit! that was awsome! im favoriting this

[boulderdsvo]

When an aircraft is flying supersonically, there is a cone shaped shock wave extending out and back from the nose of the aircraft. It's not a single explosion, but is instead a continuous effect, sweeping along the ground along with and behind the aircraft. The best way to think of it is all the jet sounds going out in front of the plane is compressed in time to a single impluse, and all that noise hitting your ears in an instant sounds like a boom.

[TheEmy1991]

is it true that if we exceeded the speed of sound ... that there is a sound like a very loud explosion ..? and if it is true .. why do they explode? (POOOOMMMM) is very very strong .. could be heard exploding in the air to the ground ..?

[C1J9R9T5V]

@TheEmy1991 yes it its true. and the boom is cause by breaking the wind

[TheEmy1991]

@C1J9R9T5V how much time the sound takes to reach the earth ..? whether the 1sec ..? 2 seconds ..???

and thank you for reply my comment .. ^. ^

[Tartrus1]

@C1J9R9T5V Lol, no actually the sound is the constructive interference of sound waves.

[C1J9R9T5V]

@Tartrus1 oh. lol something like that

[airsoftbro123]

@TheEmy1991 its when the plane is traveling faster than the sound around it. it breaks through the sound in front of it making a exploding sound. its quite amazing to hear

[Tartrus1]

@TheEmy1991 Don't listen to the other guy it is caused by the sound waves undergoing constructive interference which is when two or more waves come together and become a larger wave.

[TheEmy1991]

@Tartrus1 thank you ... because your neighbor told me the explosion in the air .. ^ ^ I really appreciate your words

[dex123james]

BOOMS

[TIMOTHYSAARINEN]

When I was a small kid in the mid 60's, we heard sonic booms every day here in Maine. We had a Naval Air Station and an Air Force Base here.

[avatarcody1]

I miss doing this in the Mojave Desert. I used to live by Fort Irwin and we would go out and watch them get so close to the ground

[miltonluvsno1]

A sonic booms sound from that altitude sounds amazing, shows you how far sound travels if its load enough.

[iPhonestunna]

U think this is cool .. I did this in my mini van lastnight

[gamekiiid]

its not sonic bomb they shot civilian!!!

[supramanz]

Theres a sonic boom video at sea, of a concorde. That is much louder than this. Look it up.

[500205]

@supramanz you fucking retard a f-22 and a f-18 even though they are faster and very much smaller than the concorde. The more sqft or how big the plane is the louder the sonic boom but the jet turbines on the 2 fighters are alot louder but the noice of the jet turbines have nothing to do with the sound barrier.

[supramanz]

@500205 You called me an idiot for saying something I didn't even say. Read your own comment. I didn't even mention the word sound barrier.

[tigerswede3]

@500205 you are incorrect. Even the cruise speed of the Concorde (M2.02) is faster than the maximum speed of the F/A-18 and Super (M1.8). Google is a wonderful thing.

[500205]

@supramanz If you can put a rock down range without and explosion or other force it would still be louder than the sonic boom of a .50 cal because its bigger thats all that matters when you going through the sound barrier.

[supramanz]

@500205 I agree

[Adamkhang18]

@TTDMFfreaknew yea srry about that but yea it seems really complicated but it does not hurt to try and I know about needing to speak to your senator and I'll get a recommendation from my colonel and teacher and well try to make it

[Adamkhang18]

@TTDMFfreaknew yea I know most of the processes already and it seems rel

[asah991]

ooooooo that fart would hurt

[500205]

@asah991 lol funniest comment ever i luv it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Adamkhang18]

There also going faster than sound so we see before we hear them

[Adamkhang18]

@TTDMFfreaknew yep I do next year I'm going to try and apply at the AF academy of colorado springs and I'm in afjrotc right now so I'm just trying to keep up my grades do a lot of community service take tests and try out for sports!

[brokenarrowchristmas]

@Adamkhang18 You better add a 3.8 or higher and 2 congressional signatures to that

[billetudo]

this is an awsome jet , id say the best but why do most russian jet fighter videos look very professional that makes their jets look very good.

[Adamkhang18]

haha sweet cant wait to try and become a fighter pilot!

[TTDMFfreaknew]

@Adamkhang18 Got a 3.5 GPA?

[Igi1983]

where is guile from streetfighter ?

[carbonhornet]

if you listen closley there were two sonic booms.

[britoca]

@carbonhornet yes, each boom is 2 wave crests, compression and decompression

[YZach]

That was cool, please try to get some more of these high altitude high speed passes!

[cOdLoVeR321]

sure those arent bombs exploding! lol

[AVincent2]

Does a sonice boom sound different depending on the mach number?

[Replexity]

@AVincent2 Yeah, I think so

[cambruda]

@AVincent2 No. At mach 1 the boom comes. There are no following booms. But altitude, aircraft type/shape, moisture in the air, and pressure of the surrounding atmosphere alter the sound

[JetZeroFox]

@cambruda actually there are following booms because the vehicle is continuously breaking the sound barrier. we only hear 1 boom because it passes us too quickly. if you still dont get what i'm saying then picture two groups of people that were about 1 mile apart. a supersonic plane passes 1 group and they hear the sonic boom then about 5 seconds later, the plane passes the second group and they hear a sonic boom. =P

[mAnclTy]

hahaha at 0:24 shi-woo

[kimsean426]

@lonelykatana Hate say it but the 12jason is right about the contrail system. And its well documented in the Airtime Publishing Black Jets page 28 "Contrails can be made less visible by injecting chemicals into the exhaust that break the water into droplets which are smaller then the wavelength of visable light.""CSA is toxic and crorrossive and was adandoned in favor of a new, classified system that is in use on the B-2 and F-117." According to one book, sure there others with more info.

[hesap11th]

The F-35's electronics is so high tech that it is superior than any jet exsisting; youtube.com/watch?v=cPKw3RksCc­I

[skateboy159]

on the f22 web site says they dont make contrails but that one was

[12jason223]

@skateboy159 they have a chemical they spray in the exhaust to stop contrails from forming, ik this my friends mother worked on the project to make those chimcals for B2 spirits

[sdgsdgsdgsd3]

@12jason223 dont use chemicals, its all about wing technology

[denverJPUE]

this is what happens when you have to hold your shit in........boom!

[GLKiteboarding]

it's 343 meters per second at 20 degrees celsius.

[boxuall]

You guy's have your numbers wrong. The speed of sound is at +/- 672 MPH.....

[dhl1986]

@boxuall

There are too many variables to say the sound barrier is broken at speed X or speed Y. It goes too far in either direction.

[Mxracer6y]

LOL @ you fuck tards arguing about the speed of sound...

tard: its 762

tard2: NO U FUCKIN IDIOT ITS 764!!!!

tard3: OMG no its not its 761

tard4: Actually guys its 762.3333339

tard5: omg u guys are so dumb its 766 on a dry summer day

how about stfu and lets all agree that its about 760 give or take a few

[FuLlCiiRcLe]

@Mxracer6y HAHAHAHAHA

[NPSurvival]

Actually, it varies greatly depending on the altitude, but yes, seriously guys, stop arguing.

[Mxracer6y]

@NPSurvival <--- same type of person i was making fun of

[Agentcapture]

Would love to see Red Flag. Not only is it a scanner paradise, but an aviation paradise! lol

[OsanBlackCat5RS]

the shape of the aircraft also contributes to how the booms would sound,the smoother and sharper the body the more quiet it was,the way the 71 was shaped gave it a deep tone that would rattle all windows in the yuba sutter area they were so common here until the late 90's

[OsanBlackCat5RS]

lol,it is not an explosion,the pop sound or gunshot sound you hear is simply becuase the aircraft is moving so fast that the wind stream around the airframe becomes compressed anything forward of the aircrafts body that has a point shape to it or a cone shape hence the nose section is the part of the aircraft that is making the pop sound,the SR-71 had 3 of them,the two spikes and the nose section wich gave it its distinct.. boom BOOM the second was always louder from the mix of the two spikes

[xxxxx123456789xxxxx1]

the sound barrier is acoustic with electromagnetic existence

[OsanBlackCat5RS]

no sound moves depending on the altitude,it varies as you go up and down in alt. ; ) but your right it is around 600 to 750 give or take a few,its never perfect

[Captus15]

How is that about ''sound moves''? And why the explosion?  Maybe hard question.

[transaviagekking]

man, very interesting.

5 stars *****  ;)

[Captus15]

I am curious how that explosion can still be heard at such high altitude...This is so interesting 5stars

[conyb94]

@Captus15

sound move at 600mph ;)

[skoobdaer]

Very nice. I don't care what anyone says

[Songbird1986]

Man, Wherever you stay, you must get to see All the Action! 5Stars*****

[8081rt]

The plane was so dam high that I had to use digital zoom. When I use digital zoom, the slightest move makes it shaky and crappy. Dumbass.

[swedishvolvo]

You did well mate.

[aseticelite]

you're retarded...

[Captus15]

what a dumbass you are

[rollins1011]

thats funny everybody has a different answer u guys dont know what speed breaks the sound barrier!!

[skipplet]

The ratio of oxygen, nitrogen, and other gases is constant throughout the atmosphere. So the higher you go, the less oxygen there is.

[Kenzofeis]

Trying to run away from a speeding ticket there

[Kyddblunder]

you dont need to goo 800mph its 653mph to break the sound barrier, and yes the larger the surface area the more displacement of air, the louder the boom

[MicahShoemaker]

742 miles per hour at sea level and standard atmospheric conditions, which is 1088 feet per second, this is the speed of sound. Yes, it changes at altitude, due to less air density.

[KARASAWA40]

Speed of sound is a function of temperature.

[AVP181]

no its 763

[lance9200]

it actually 753 and i know because jet blue airline planes do 658

[treecowboy1100]

An example of a sonic boom from a small object would be the snap from a rifle bullet going past. I first heard them working the butts at USMCRD Paris Island.

[Icarusdecending82]

@Kyddblunder the speed of sound actually varies depending on the temperature, humidity, and altitude. At sea level, on a dry day, with a temperature of 68F the speed of sound is 768mph.

[denbenenki]

pilot farts

[ZincShackles]

I'm presuming the bigger the plane or the faster the acceleration of the plane (in getting to the speed of sound), the louder the sonic boom. Can anybody confirm?

[Jokerr6900]

i'd assume shape/size and acceleration of the plane would do that.. big ass plane with murderous accerleration would make a deafening sonic boom, search for space shuttle sonic booms.. they are crazy loud

[couger911]

larger wingspan proubbaly makes for a louder bang

[cafeboni]

overall size and speed matters, acceration does'nt. as soon as an object passes mach1 it will create a shockwave from then on. now the sonic boom can be heard when it passes you, not just when the object reaches mach1 but at any speed above that. and you will only here that boom when it passes you.

[ZincShackles]

Great. Thanks cafeboni.

[PsuPepperoni]

yes. if you compare the crack of a whip or a gunshot (both of which break the sound barrier) to a jet's sonic boom its easy to see. larger objects create larger and more powerful shockwaves

[Keun19]

Speed doesnt matter.. There is a limit and if u go faster than the limit u hear the bang... I think the bigger te wwingspan the harder the sonic boom.

[lordmastershake10]

the higher up u r the faster u go cuz of less oxygen and atmosphere. so ne plane that can fly over 800mph can do sonic boom but it rele wnt happen this low

[leonsicilia]

Secondo me è un'oggetto appuntito tipo ago al microscopio...

[HughGeeRekshin]

Everybody hates the French. Frog pussy. go back to protesting your 35-hour work week, cheese-eating surrender monkey.

[NazoTheAce]

Too bad French planes blow up a lot.

bitch

[Yamaha950]

only until the germans arrive

[tyIerz06]

Ha frenchies? Why don't you guys actually win a war and then tell us that.

[sw9carbon]

the first true sonic boom vid i have seen thanks

[FruitpunchFTW]

You haven't looked hard enough then...

[sw9carbon]

u could say that

[picguy145]

Wow...really? Check out some of my older favorites. I have a few good videos of sonic booms

[frankodub187]

cool vid!!

[kemosabe62]

cause were americans and we have the ability,,,GET OVER IT,,,,,GO AVIATION!!!!

[LiveAfterDeath69]

hunters in the woods? 'cuz we're in the desert right?

you're a dumbass. go fuck yourself

[nikil90]

BOOM!

[fightingfalconfan]

super cruse is flying at super sonic speeds AT altitude without the use of the afterburner.

[fightingfalconfan]

it don't matter what plane you fly. military or civilian. it will still leave a contrail when the plane reaches about 28,000 to about 34,000. that's when the contrail stops. the only planes that wont leave a contrails are the prop jobs. its only jet engines that can go that high. jet engines use compression from several high compression fans in the middle of the engine. think of them as pistons. for more info on how jet engines work, hi me up.

[jbateson101]

fightingfalconfan.....believe me I would never want your 'expert advice' on jet engines...you clearly know very little indeed.

[cjth3on3]

lol this looks like my science final

[OsanBlackCat5RS]

well im at Beale AFB :P

[chestacity4lyf]

i did a sonic boom in my tracotr

[UnsungSandwhich]

lol

[LukRacer]

@chestacity4lyf WTF?!

I did some when i was running yesterday!

[PiviotmasterEX]

if thats loud then listen to the first one on my favorites the concorde one

[FAISAL15S]

thank god i'm a pilot...

but i didn't get the chance to break the sound barierre

[LiveAfterDeath69]

awesome man, so youre a UPT stud?

what base are you at?

[FAISAL15S]

i'm at Vance AFB

[LiveAfterDeath69]

cool

[blAck5Et]

Extreme1567 its probably just wind

[vgiannoulakis36]

Are you a pilot;

[8081rt]

Bullseye doesn't mean he dropped a bomb. Its only a reference point. So it would translate into PLAYER is 37 miles from Bullseye heading 194 degrees at 15000ft.

[Extreme1567]

listen closely at around 0:20, theres a faint boom in the distant right after the camera click. LISTEN VERY CAREFULLY

[jjs4you2]

12 years ago before my kids were born, my wife and I were up at Lake Tahoe and wanted to stop by Vegas on our way home to LA. We went down Hwy 375 through Rachel and did all the "UFO hunter" things that people do, pictures in front of the mailbox's the Little A'LE'INN and no trespassing signs.

Went down the Bus route towards Area 51 as far as the sign. I had my ID and Credentials from work (Edwards AFB) with me and figured they might cut me some slack because of my job and classification.

[jjs4you2]

I almost talked myself into it but then my wife talked me out of it. She has veto power when it comes to some of the stupid things I want to do. I guess she's saved us a lot in bail and Lawyer fees over the years!

There was no Red Flag at the time, but they were doing something up there. We watched F-15/16's refueling from KC10's, KC10's refueling KC135's and 135's refueling F-15/16's. All they did was run about a 100 mile race course circuit for hours.

[soulcalibur22]

booommmm shhhiiitttt

[Why2bless]

oh nice.

[ordthejoker]

Contrails are formed when the hot exhaust from the engines cools and forms water droplets, so unless you know how to make engines that produce zero heat then all aircraft will produce contrails, usually above 26000 feet, maybe a bit higher.

[drhatchback]

isnt that supposed aurora plane capable of creating a diffrent contrail, supposedly one with rings because it doesnt produce that much heat which enables it to break mach 6

[blazefox2]

you do realize that that is just a concept thought up by some engineers and it probably wont ever be produced

[F22coleman]

you're right, because of the RAM Air Engine Concept, it creates the pulse detonation thus the famous doughnut on a rope contrail ( not sure why you got the thumbs down)

[12jason223]

i would hope those arnt jet fighters

they arnt suposed to leave contrails

[8081rt]

Why not.

[6V92TA]

Dude....anything that flies high enough spits a contrail. Fighter jet, Beechcraft Baron 58 or 747, if you fly at 35,000ft, you are guaranteed to spit a contrail.

[12jason223]

they design the military fighters to have no contrail

fly the B2 as high as u want and you want get a contrail

[6V92TA]

B2 or not, it'll contrail. The B2's exhaust is designed to cut out its heat signature as was the F-117s and F-22. They will still contrail if the conditions are there for contrail formation. The B2 was originally built with chemical tanks that sprayed some chemical into the exhaust to cut out contrail formation but this was dropped before of environmental reasons. Look at the YF-22 air to air high altitude trails and you'll see both the F22 and YF-22 contrail

[8081rt]

Ive got a picture on our site of a B-2 with a contrail. Just because its military doesn't mean the can't make contrails.

[caswellj747]

jason, what the hell? Who told you that nonsense!? poor kid...

lemme break it down for you:

anything that gets its power from cumbustion, ie fuel burning, ie fire, will create H20 as a byproduct. H20 is aka water... still with me? When water vapor gets cold enough it instantly condenses... at altitude its very cold, thus ANY exhaust from a fuel burning plane will leave a trail of condensed water behind it, aka contrail.

[Indogyearsimdead]

@12jason223 And how exactly do "they" do that? Break the laws of physics that is.

[12jason223]

@Indogyearsimdead add chemicals into the exaust that keep it from forming contrails, and they design them so they dont leave contrails because they will get blow out of the sky if they leave them

[Jvergakis]

@12jason223 contrails form from wings too not just from the engine

[Indogyearsimdead]

@12jason223 Well, since I actually help with the maintenance and repair of those (and other Air Force and Navy) jet engines I'm saying NO. ALL jet engines leave contrails. Hot exhaust + cold atmosphere = contrail. Basic unbreakable law of physics.

[12jason223]

@Indogyearsimdead how would u repair AF and Navy jets? and Hot exhaust + cold atmosphere + chemicals = no contrail

[Indogyearsimdead]

@12jason223 I do NDI on these engines. And they don't use chemicals PERIOD

[jjs4you2]

I once got a penny stuck in my nose!

[XxBlood13xX]

Not to bash on you or your videos, but dude, get a tripod, lol.

Very nice vid otherwise.

[8081rt]

I had a tripod but was in a hurry to get this shot, we just pulled up and saw it. Plus, even with a tripod it would be hard to see the plane.

[schmdtyman]

thats sweet

[sm0othockeyspeed]

Dude, your videos are top notch. Not many people can say they'v heard an F-15 let alone and F-22 go supersonic.

I need to come hang out with you guys for a few weeks. Please? LoL

[ptpovo]

i went to da one tday 2008 and saw like 10 of those

[paulyboy403]

thats shit hot

[LeeAlbrandt]

Nice.

[we465]

that vid was sick!! the f 22 is the best

[kdraper2007]

Yeah, & the F-22 was probably not even in burner when he did that,, supercruisin'
