  • this is so interesting it is retarded.

  • Comment removed

  • Why does nobody ever say the United States has the smartest most innovative engineers? We pretty much have designed everything in the past 2 centuries

  • @TheRidersChoice Cos mostly russians, germans and japanese invented everything ! :D

  • @anarxisttt Nope, if you immigrate here and sign the papers to be a citizen you are American, you shed your skin of your old nationality. You wanna live here enjoy US freedom and pay, then your inventions are US not the old country you moved away from....

  • @TheRidersChoice And a lot of Russian engineers work in USA, cos there they got a lot better payment.

  • @TheRidersChoice I think you don't understand the difference between inventing something and buying patents. I would agree with you, the US in the last century were very good at buying patents of already invented things.

  • If we ran all our planes of nuclear material we would run out of nuclear material within a decade.

  • Boy I am really tired of reading endless Youtube comments that are just all stupid. I wish there was an option to hide them.

  • @Anat0ly

    Thanks for putting this video up!

  • great - flying reactors above ouer heads - thats what we need ...:-D

  • Yay let's argue about democracy on a video about plane engines.

  • WHY CAN'T THEY MAKE THESE FOR PASSENGER JETS ! :D

  • @TaviYamato Petroleum is still abundant right now, even if petroleum reserves start to dwindle it might make more sense to power aircraft with gases such as methane. If no other fuel sources would suffice then I would predict that we would start to see civilian models of nuclear powered aircraft in the developed world.

  • @8:38 did i hear that right?

  • What a coincidence with my idea and design!

    It is Swept Wing Bomber and Swept Wing JSF design with canard.

    Same shape but the wing is swept wing for the rocket system like a missile.

    On my opinion,it should have less air barrier burden with my swept wing idea on this kind of craft.You can see it with search enginge in google.com.Just type kongcode jsf,kongcode craft.

  • Brilliant. So now if a "atomic" plane crashes or gets shot down, not only do you lose the plane, but now, just for fun, you also have a brand new nuclear accident sight with radiation at toxic levels for the next 10,000 years.

  • @sunnchilde Really are Hiroshima and Nagasaki still radioactive? Those were weapons-grade explosion not commercial grade engines.

    Greenies have caused more pollution due to their ignorance by holding up the cleanest, safest, mass energy production method on this planet.

  • @userdenied58 Amen brother! Amen! Because of the environmentalist movement human progress is delayed and the developed countries of the world are forced to accept power sources that rely of carbon or are largely inappropriate for providing large amounts of carbon-free energy such as alternative energy (solar, wind, tidal). Environmentalist help produce the technological stagnation that they supposedly decry.

  • well any way, now you can learn more from single youtube chanel. I myself am realy into astronomy so i subscribed to chanel DeepSkyVideos. And there are lot of other chanels specialized at something interesting. just sayng, "DISCOVERY CHANEL" is kinda getting old...

  • and then the invention of missiles :P

  • another problem is that it's hard to wind up and then shut down a nuclear chain reaction, the cascade of breakdown isotopes goes on for hours or days afterward, at least in a U235 reactor, and due to the transient neutron-soaking effect of one xenon isotope, the reaction flares up again hours after shut-down, and has to be dealt with. Atomic engines were a big staple of 50's-era sci-fi, but really tricky to implement, even in static ground installations -

  • Atomic bomber? facking gay!

  • the pointlessness of this is staggering,

  • @SRT480 Why is is pointless? Unless they've done it before, failed and are doing it exactly the same. As humans we learn from every experiment, whether YOU think it is pointless or not has no bearing.

  • @UnclePillz your talking about a atomic reactor flying though the air we breathe to go kill people whle the enemy actively tried to destroy this flying cancer machine, thats like saying dont knock being a pedophile till you have tried it

  • How about a nuclear powered flying carrier?

  • @Fallkenn Yes like Sky Captain..

  • heres what u do. make a replica plea 1.5 times bigger, put 2 reactors next to each other and put lead plating around them both with the same engine complex system, now u have the same lift as u would with what u wanted with the smaller 1 reactor and u have a much bigger plane with the same performance of the smaller one! but thats not the real problem, when that plane gets shot, and blows up......

  • I have imagined this is atomic engine.

  • Why don't you use early fusion reactor utilising fissile fuel to make spacehship engine?

  • Comment removed

  • nuclear planes got shitted on by nuclear subs.

  • Can you imagine if one of these crashed in a residential area, though? Even with the indirect system, you'd probably have a breach of the reactor and it would still have the potential to irradiate a very large area.

  • this is the key for an completely electric jet plane, just change the reactor for one electric termal sistem, and voila.

  • @Cachorrowoofito there is no battery strong enough to power that.

  • @Doan84 no yet, but in some years is very probably.

  • when ever i watch the jet vids theres always a weird alien or creepy vid in the related vids

  • At 9:15 did you catch that hull number yep, it's no other than the USS Nautilus (SSN-571).

  • Eh, History channel has a lot of WW2, though there is a lot of stupid shit like "Ancient Aliens" or whatever...

  • THANKS for sharing this one !

  • Wow ,this reminds when the Discovery Channel was informative . Now all it is mass media nonsense ,like Dirty Jobs and other various reality TV. .....Thanks for the informative information . This channel is the best :)

  • how the hell did I get here?

  • look at the planes then listen to ufo accounts (1+1+2) major mistakes not building the B70 and not building the atomic plane . missleas can't be recalled planes can

  • @Kasatome missiles can be destroyed in flight with a command from ground control, it happens all the time in rocket tests, if the rocket goes crazy they destroy it in flight instead of letting it randomly impact somewhere.

  • looks like a sr-71b

  • They didn't expect the pilots to come back anyway.

  • @aarrmmeenndd100 I don't really buy the whole global warming BS. But if you watch any discovery channel shows they line in "climate change" and global warming to everything. If you watch Deadliest Catch for example they say the extreme weather is due to climate change.. It doesn't matter what it is they try and feed the lie to the pawns. What interests me is we can't even predict the next days weather yet they claim to be able to predict a global shift in the climate.

  • And man went round the moon in nothing more than a Biscuit tin 

  • 5:00 this man is not normal look at him

  • absolute madness, to even consider putting such a "Reactor" in to an independent or to any weapon of war is insanity, it stands to be hit, destroyed, shot down, this would litter the zone with nuclear debris, what of such a plane returning home {Damaged} how would you decide who was not.. likely to scatter the home land with derbies if it blew up above its landing point... insanity complete insanity...

    Thom in Scotland.

  • how to stop this engine in emergency?

  • The first engine mentioned ( or something very similar ) is possibly what powered the so called "UFO" that irradiated the 3 people in the Cash - Landrum incident back in the 60s'.

  • und wir machen uns wegen ein kleinwenig co2 sorgen

  • really.. how much does a reactor weight lol.. they need such a big plane?? that could fly tanks around.

  • but if someone shoots the engine ???

    :D

  • Navy and Air Force competing... No wonder the US are broke

  • Comment removed

  • Good old Discovery Channel times... now its all "See what hard jobs got americans"... Disovery channel aint the same...

  • this reminds me of how discovery chanel used to be interesting, and not about people doing thaire jobs... :(

  • @turbodyzel I KNOW!!!!!!, but no my friend discovery rather show reality TV and a bunch of Biker Losers fighting over who has the biggest pacifier.

  • @turbodyzel Or idiots covered in Tattoos building useless junk!

  • @turbodyzel Or about global warming and crap like that.

  • @turbodyzel

    "How it's made" isn't even good. It's fucking random as hell

    "IN THIS EPISODE, LAWNMOWERS AND DVDs"

  • @turbodyzel I FUCKING LOVE WATHCING HUGE CAGES OF FUCKING HUGE CRABS! OH YEAH!

  • @turbodyzel

    discovery channel changed.... : (

  • @turbodyzel ...you got that right! remember how good discovery and the history channel used to be?

  • @turbodyzel And not to mention less commercials. Now i just watch their shows here on youtube, TV is so over.

  • Guaranteed they tried to build one.

  • In the future I see nuclear UAVs that fly at mach 4. Fuck radiation leakage.

  • @bobyjohn12345 whow I never thought of that good idea!

  • a nuclear powered bomber, and there worried about a radiation leak, just get 2 nuke engines and 2 regular engines, used regular over friendly territory, and use the nukes over enemy territory

  • Comment removed

  • (1:12) till (1:17), can only be known when you tested it

    (1:17) till (1:22), he just acknowleged.

    Only tests can make it sure that this will happen...

    And I am breathing it in just like the people who read this...

  • 0:36 SIMPLER

  • Comment removed

  • solch einen schwachsinn, können sich auch nur die Amis ausdenken. Die folgen eines Absturzes, sind doch unüberschaubar, aber das hat den Amis ja noch nie gestört. Siehe Ölpest, Uranmunition usw.

  • that would be great, airplanes powered by nuclear reactors... would be fun if they crashed... can we say mobile chernobyl? lol

  • americans just NEED to make insane weapons.... Can't make peace....

  • @digimaks no, that's HUMANS

  • @digimaks yep I've been waching these shows for years now. Technology to goverments is all about weapons. All the major countries work night and day to come up with newer technology to kill as many people as they can.  Nasa claims it is for space travel and putting satelites in space for civilian use, have a hidden agenda. It's all being set up for war. Setting up satelites around the world will become strictly weapons of war. Equipped with lasers and who knows what else, to use for war.

  • @callscott1 Its not like we're trying to look for war, but the way it works is if you don't get it first, someone else will, and that might be someone much worse.

  • @superotherguy1 yep, seems like there's no way around it.

  • Nuclear Air. Holy pancakes.

  • 2:00

  • Stupid Idea and dangerous. If the plane crashes you taking about radiating some poor souls unknowing what will be fall them from the sky. Lets not forget its payload if it didnt drop it. That be environmental nightmare waiting to happen.

    Just imagine that getting shot down the mess left behind to clean up would be tragic mess.

    I am happy they didn't go threw with this cause it is bad idea to pursue

  • @djmv2002 - Put it this way, if you were an air defence officer in the Soviet Union and one of these flew over - would you be game to shoot it down?

  • Here's a working supersonic propeller aircraft with bombs and everything - XF-73A Meganeura modified with Verticopter's Propeller Supersonic Mach 1.2 in X-Plane 9 - watch?v=h--vPFN3bUE

  • Air Force: We'll build a plane that runs on nuclear power with sketchy shielding, and small but dangerously hot reactor. Navy: We'll build a submarine, with a normal sized engine and a safe lead shielding. NAVY WINS.

  • world of warplanes plz make this

  • WOW =,D

  • Now make it crash

  • Is it just me or does the Vorcolac from Ace Combat Joint Assault look a lot like the WS-125

  • Love the information in this series, when will man ever realize we are all subject to radiation from this deadly fuel. Spent fuel sitting around at every power plant is not "safe"

    How does (any) nuclear plant or ship become decommissioned and decontaminated at the end of its useful life? It doesn't

  • If the Germans not lost the War, we flight with UFOs today.

  • This would be an interesting plane if built, its range limited only by the enthusiasm of the crew's collective cancer.

  • Horrible use in atmosphereic craft,but absolutly wonderful for spacecraft. It's way past time to have interplanetary crafts. Sadly,our dumbass leaders are too preoccupied with their petty small minded pitiful religious and political agendas.

  • USA won the cold war!!! USA all the way!!!!!!!

  • @dhbiza hahaha let's say the cold war was a draw

  • @sam15bo sorry....Reagan defeated the commies. USA all the way!!!

  • Why isn't this called a Nuclear Bomber? We have Nuclear Submarine, Nuclear Carrier, Nuclear Bomber?

  • @jci10 Cause it was designed in around the time when they were called atom bombs not nukes.

  • i beat the japanese people disliked this

    \

  • Atomic Bomber MY ASS!!! Lemmie Let you all in on a little fucking secret...AS-OF-YET, only two Atomic Bombs have ever been dropped in Combat; the United States dropped both of them onto Japanese Territory, & does anybody know what dropped them?!?  ...the Enola Gay, a Boeing B-29 Superfortress....

  • @IMaDEM0N They are calling this an atomic bomber due to it's atomic engines not based on what it drops...

  • @IMaDEM0N Whaaa?? duuhh

  • Is stolen from German Projects !!!

  • @dennie6666 Actually, the Americans did it themself. Germans had no experience in Nuclear designs, however Soviet Union already made a Nuclear powered prototype that flew and that was before America even could finish theirs.

  • what could area 51 develope now

  • @padawan007 Area 51 develops secret planes, an example can be the SR-71 or B-2 stealth bomber.

  • @jamesjrcombat or the black manta and anti gravity and propulsion systems

  • No comment....you are in 1950....

  • why wouldn't they just do it with propellers? much easier to make a closed loop system that transfers power from the reactor

  • @mard420 You can only go so fast with probs. Jets give much faster speeds

  • @freemanbrook if youtube reflects the average intelligence of people, then democracy is a sham, isn't it.

  • @cowbot2 it is..

  • @cowbot2 democracy isn't a sham, it's just a good idea poorly implemented.

  • @edwardocortez and Communism is a poor idea even more poorly implemented

  • @edwardocortez there are lot of good idead, but all poorly implemented or just have inside and outside problems like stupid people corrupt the whole systeme.Just take a look on communism, its the fairest and the greatest idea for goverment,but the stupidness and the afraidness of US goverment pushed soviet union to invent trillions for wars and the tech.The corrupted people inside destroyed the whole communism systeme of equality and affluence of civil people what the idea was.

  • @edwardocortez communism isn´t a sham, it´s just a good idea poorly implemented. All ideas must incorporate humanity into the equation.

  • @edwardocortez It works great in my country

  • @edwardocortez

    no. it actually IS a sham. It was invented to give you the illusion of freedom, because we got sick of blatant feudalism.

    now most people think they are "free" and democratic because they get the opportunity to vote for one of a selection of puppet Presidents once every term

    lol, it's a funny trick that makes me lol. but it keeps the sheeple happy.

  • @cowbot2 democracy is a sham however u look at it, if democracy worked they wouldn't allow it, they would just use the corrupt version of democracy that they currently use, y would the governments want to give us the power to choose r own destinies, that wouldn't benefit their bank balancies 1 bit

  • Nuclear Subs over Nuclear Bombers, wow you guys were genesis! I wonder and what was the price for the American tax payer for you to relive these ideals? Had to be some where in the 5 to 10 billions of dollar's to find out that Nuclear bombers would be a really dumb ideal. Well that's what happens when it's the salesman that set's the nation's agenda!

  • @freemanbrook Indeed, what a pity.

  • ето космические технологии... ;) На Марс ...

  • @h22amonster762 a space-based technologies ... ;) on Mars ... learn Russian. Good for your health ...

  • @ELKI09PALKI09 it looks so complicated

  • give the pilots led suits.....

  • @JuliusCeasar223 Or even "lead" suits!

  • Comment removed

  • @flyingfisbeefilms I'm very sorry for the typo, mein fuhrer grammar nazi.

  • @JuliusCeasar223 you just made my fucking day...

  • This was crazy!

  • THere are four really bad ideas with nuclear power in history.

    Nuclear satellites

    Nuclear airplanes

    Using Coal as stabilisers for reactors. (Tjernobyl)

    Have naturally unstable reactors cooled by liquid natruim that will explode in contact with water /Bridereactors)

  • @aon10003 Daz no problem, things like water are incredibly rare.

  • I am disappointed at the reaction this series posted by Anat0ly, who has done us great service. You cannot abstract these ideas from history. It was post-WW II, the Cold War was underway and the nuclear age had commenced. Truman and later Eisenhower wanted to develop atoms for peace but it stands to reason the military would utilize the technology. We didn't get nuclear-powered aircraft but submarines and other ships. A big thank you Anat0ly for bringing this to us.

  • @Reichenback09 YouTube is past it's glory days.

    There used to be intelligent convos here back in 06 and early 07.

  • These are the same people who we pay taxes to . Couldnt anyone see the stupididty of this concept ... This is money talking dirty .

  • Ridiculous application of nuclear power. A plane where the crew is the limitation on endurance makes the plane itself pointless.

  • Ridiculous application of nuclear power. A plane where the crew is the limitation on endurance makes the plane itself worthless.

  • @49bobbyk

    World War II-Cold War were full of preposterous and odd ideas and things we would just call nothing short of ridiculous. This doesn't even make the top 50, mate.

  • @SSTTEEAALLTTHH nope, I think does show a lot of imagination but its just too impractical. My favourite crazy weapon has to be the pigeon guided anti-ship missile. Thats got to be in the top 10 list.

  • this would be insane in a drone.

  • Comment removed

  • nuklear weapon and nuklear power- is the man,s greatest achiwement

  • nice bomber...

  • Thank you for uploading, this is very cool.

  • with the invention of the atomic bomb humanity declared death to it's own planet!

  • Comment removed

  • nice aircraft

  • invesiles

  • why dismissing a dirty system, when the goal of such a system is to make the world more dirty in the first place? So forget about the bomb. Just fly around.

  • Just think on how heavy it would have to be with the shielding, and core cooling. Wow!

  • Interesting. And if they got shot down, they were on the other side of the pond. Little mini chernobyl's.

  • Obama hand hit on table "cộp,cộp":

    -How about we all come to ask Mr Dmtau,He may have any Ideal to help us ?

    Biden shake his head:

    -No ways. .Dmtau did not likes all of us !

    Pelosi :

    -Why ?

    Biden :

    -Dmtau knew all of us are treason of US! He hate all treason . .

    Obama :

    -So .. our head will be off . .Oh my father Mongols help,help. . .help !

  • Pelosi realy mad ,She look traight to Obama face:

    -"Fuck" you Kenya!You go too far. . .

    -Hey Ugly Lady. .I am your President. . OK !

    -"Fuck" president likes you 1000 times. .Pelosi mad said that to Obama.Biden come in :

    -Both of you close your mouth. .Time to find down to prove we have Nuclear Power Plant. .We don't prove them . all our head will be cutting off. .OK

  • Obama look at Pelosi :

    -Hey ugly Pelosi . .your turn to tell me about Nuclear !

    Pelosi a little mad . .call her "Ugly"

    -I am came from Slovakia . .how I know . .We only have the Chemical Weapons.. .any one may tell me tho chemical may do some thing to my face ?

    -Yes , those can make you face look younger likes my grand mother! Obam said that .

  • Last month ,Obama and his men & ugly women name Pelosi(Slovakia) in the meeting about Nuclear ,Obama stand up & ask:

    -Any body tell me what a hell Nuclear about ?

    Biden look at Obama :

    -Nuclear is . . .We never have that . .Kenya !

    -What's that mean , Irish?

    -You are so idiot Kenya. .mean we never have nuke . . .understand?

  • Look at his small eyes..you can tell in his eyes know nothing about nuclear. .all they know about dirty weapons. . .in this world no countries have any nuclear power plant..Who say have . .cut his head off ! Why we do that ? They want to get our moneys for the fake nuclear power .

  • Excuse me?

    Incoherent much?

    Please, try to make sense once in awhile.

  • Pelosi from Slovakia bark:

    -Those Chemical can use for my ugly face?

    Obama like it :

    -Sure . .those make you look younger likes my Grand mother?

    Pelosi mad :

    -"Fuck" you Kenya . .

    -"Fuck" you too lady ! I am a president . .ok Pelosi shit !

  • Obama & their democrats barking in the meeting about Nuclear Power Plant! Obama supprise : -What is the nuclear mean guys.. Biden : -Nuclear.. .is Nuke . .r.r.r Obama : -Speak up ! -I realy don't know . . .we never have -What we have ? -All chemical Weapons from Mongols . .do you want to test them? Obama: -Are you crazy scottish !
