  • You should see my Nuclear powered steam train!

  • i saw jet and solar power in the same sentence and i knew it was fake.

  • It's FAKE! He took the body of an working solar powered car and pasted some wings on it... Got YA!

  • I thought the 1st picture was better than the 3rd and 7th pictures, you know? The contrast of the photo just makes it that much more plausible, am I right? pft

  • besides the fact that this video is gay...

    you can actually have an ion jet made purely from electricity, so I don't see anything wrong with this concept. except for the fact that it won't have enough power to fly with the current technology, STOP BEING SUCH IGNORANT BASTARDS.

  • This is really gay who wants to see an image flipping and changing color

  • @ox141jf Stoners and people on acid......

  • No fighting at night!

  • i like that song :)

  • lol, how is it a jet if it's not combusting a jet of air mixed with fuel. this is like saying "solar powered nuclear reactor"

  • Nellis air force base has 17 MW of solar panels in a large field. They know...

  • Oh I'm sorry, I actually mean't to give it a Thumbs up but missed!

  • steam-powered jet fighter has more chance of working

  • LOL! Wow, if this "jet" were real it would wear a helmet and ride the short bus.

  • Wow. How the fuck is the russian Mig ar the American FA 18 GONNA EVADE THIS MONSTER .

  • Ummm, if it's solar powred how could it be a jet?  Which uses fuel?

    ["Look at my water powered fire torch." | lol wut?]

  • yeah no problem, line em up next to the solar powered space shuttle. FAIL

  • Army + Solar Power = NO MATCH

  • It could probably reach mach 1 if you drop it from 50 000ft in a dive. Lets give it a whirl:)

  • wtf? how can solar energy provide fuel for a jet engine???

  • Who thought flipping the same image over and over was going to help sell this idea? It says "this is a concept." Maybe this was a joke Im taking too seriously, but otherwise, it's one of the top 10 dumbest videos in Youtube's history.

  • Nice to see the technology hailed as one of the saviours of Earth's problems attached to a machine designed to kill as easily as possible.

  • sure its fake ^^ rofl.. you see any engine at all?

    or wait ! ahh... i understand ! the hybrid-jet has a geomagnaticfield-engine ! rofl

  • If a picture is worth a 1000 words. Than that photo shop is worth one word impossible.

  • Is that a monkey in the drvier seat?

  • NO, it falls way short of even being a concept. As of this post your ratings are 2 (like) to 43 dislike. The world has spoken and they say, "crap, crap, crap, crap crap."

  • your a bad troll

  • what a dickhead... why have a plane that runs on solar when you can use nuclear power!!

  • @michaelpham12 because when they crash its nuclear explosion!

  • Can you get any stupider?

  • complete hoax

  • f16 vs solar plane...

    no change..

    it's like an r.c plane...

  • EPIC FAIL ZERO STARS

  • Epic fag right here.

  • well now you might as well call it a solar fighter. not a jet fighter. dont you understand that a jet fighter has a jet engine???

  • this is so fake.

    we ar not able to make a soler powerd yet.

    there is just not so much sun.

  • hey dude that thing is fake its solar powerd car you put missles in it and a sky background with photoshop you idiot what was the point of this video

  • ghey

  • bullshit alert activated....

  • You missed the point of a jet.

  • my bullshit alert is goin off is any one elses

  • Mine is.

  • Looks like someone took a race car from the Solar Challenge, photoshopped it into a "fighter" and then flipped the image for 30s.

    very original

  • Nice 'shop.

  • enemy attacks your airbase at night and you have to wait for the sun to come out a shine for about 6 hours before you can launch a counter attack..........hahahaahahhaa

  • Call it Eco Friendly war-fare.

  • Cmon everyone! Right in the bottom-left of the picture it says "Worth 1000" as in "a picture is worth a thousand words" or better known as a website photoshop artists create fictitious images to compete with one another! This is not concept, it is just someone's artwork.

  • I just deleted someone else's comment by mistake - sorry. I meant to click reply but clicked remove instead - woops!

  • It might produce enough power to run a cigarette lighter so the pilot could enjoy a decent smoke if you charged it the day before.

    As for enough power to run the engines forget it. Of course that's if an electrical equivalent could be produced to the jet engine which is impossible.

    Solar powered airship may have future though.

  • It's a hybrid fighter jet. It runs on electric and jet fuel.

  • Why not just put in a nuclear reactor?

  • There were attempts at making a nuclear bomber. The project was halted because it appeared it was too impractical. Technical difficulties were mounting. Nuclear reactor is heavy and the crew must be protected against radiation with very heavy lead shield. Besides, you wouldn't like to have it crashed in your garden.

  • Yes, with todays nuclear reactors. But there are many different ways of miniturizing nuclear reactors. I am talking about shifting a whole industry of course just as we are doing with ?"green" technology. If they can make solar panels charge in the dark and land a man on the moon with a computer the fraction of a gameboy then they can fit a reactor in a plane! Besides there are other cleaner smaller methods of nuclear fission. Not using uranium/P but other elements.

  • @thefuturehasarrived You forgot to mention that in the video, or its description. And whoever made that awful image forgot to include tanks... or any propulsion system for that matter.

  • @Yiggyski Jet fuel, a hydro carbon, is stored solar energy. In the very very near future solar collectors will more than exceed the current 14%-18% efficiency and batteries with much higher energy densities and lighter weights are already in production. Composite air frames are already on the market and being flown. The electric ducted fan industry has produced units with thrust comparable to similar sized jet turbines. It all comes down to power to weight ratio.

  • Rofl, yeah right i believe planes run on solary energy, when pigs can fly

  • Planes can run on solar energy, they just cannot go very fast or carry many people.

  • @thefuturehasarrived That doesnt really make it into the realms of a fighter, now does it? Fail.

  • @thefuturehasarrived yea but why do we use planes instead of boats or cars to get to our destination faster but how you said it runs on jet fuel and for those solar panels if its a military plane like in the image damn man who wont see that in the sky so the image is fake

  • heh, you might get enough power for it to roll down the runway. But it does look kick asss.

  • Sorry I just deleted someones comment by mistake.

    I would like to say that this idea would reduce fuel usage not just while the plane is flying but while charging when stationary on the airfield.
