Awesome !

@LordFalconsword No offense intended, but I have seen no record of jet assisted take off or rocket assisted take off for the B52. To add on to that, with a payload capacity of around 70,000 lbs and the heaviest weapon it carried (2x agm 28 hound dog 10,147 lbs) it would not have needed it. I don't know what you saw, but the numbers just don't add up for me.

@Silky182 Not a chance. I'm not that old. The B47 was out of service by the time I came around. A teacher of mine and relative both got me onto McCord when the Buffs were rotating through on the SAC dispersed airwing plan. Saw them take off using JATO one after another one awesome Sunday. Don't know if it was a drill or a live scamble, but it was still awesome. Afterwards got to ride with an aircrew as they retrieved the spent rockets and put out a small fire caused by one in a field!

Engine #3 didn't like that trick. I bet a 100 euros the pilot won't do that trick again with that engine.

@LordFalconsword You may have that mistaken for the B 47 which has similarities to the B52 but only had six engines and nine JATO engines inside the aft section of the aircraft. The newer engines and high lift capability of the B-52 there was no need for JATO bottles.

pull up pull up terrain terrain !!!

Mainly because A C-130 Hercules is to heavy to take off like that without them.
Mind you, that's a 45 degree angle that thing's goin up on.

@rad4life1 because in troubled areas such in Iraq , Take Off and Landing are the most dangerous moments as the Aircrafts are vulnerable to AA Misses , so the Aircraft must climb up to a safe altitude in few seconds .

why are there jets on a prop plane?

Those were Jato packs, dude. Jet Assisted Take Off. Back in the day (50's) the Buff (B-52) was so heavy with early generation nukes that even with eight engines it still needed four Jato packs on the wings to get into the air.
