Military Aircraft-Wright Bros. SR-71 F-22 Stealth Many More

From the Wright Brother's airplane to the stealth, these airplanes show the history of military aviation. This video shows a portion of a tour of the Wright Patterson AFB aircraft museum. World's largest and oldest military aviation museum.

This F-117 Stealth Fighter (Nighthawk) can seen from different angles. Its exhaust is well hidden. Although it uses the "F" designation, it is chiefly a ground-attack plane, which is also used as a bomber. Because the strength of a radar return is proportional to the edge configuration of an object, the plane has a boxy, aerodynamically unstable appearance. Its stealth technology also includes its surface coating.

The SR-71, Blackbird, has a top speed of Mach 3.5 -- more than 3 times the speed of sound. Its actual top speed may be classified and some say it has flown at speeds up to Mach 14. It is 107 feet long with a maximum altitude of over 100,000 feet and has stealth capabilities. Some think a replacement, the Aurora, is entering service. The SR-71 may still be the world's fastest airplane. Some may have been brought back into service.

The T-38, Talon, is an advanced, twin engine, high-altitude, supersonic jet. The Northrop jet is the only supersonic trainer in the world, used by few countries, and was used with the SR-71. Versions are still in use.

The B-2, stealth bomber is made by Northrop Grumman. This multi-role heavy bomber can deploy both nuclear and conventional weapons.

Also shown is the ACTUAL Boeing B-29 Superfortress, Bockscar, which dropped the second atomic bomb (plutonium bomb), called Fatboy, on Nagasaki on August 9, 1945.

The huge B-52D Stratofortress was used for later bombing missions.

The GBU-27, a 2200 lb. laser-guided bomb was designed specifically for use for the F-117. It is considered a highly accurate missile compatible with the F-117's advanced targeting system. The GBU-27 was used in Baghdad, Iraq.

The world's first operational jet fighter was the Messerschmitt, Me 262. The development of its engine, the Junkers Jumo 004 Turbojet, began in 1937 and large-scale production began in late 1944. By the time Germany surrendered in May 1945, over 5,000 engines had been made. The engine was first flight tested in 1942.

The B-17 and the Consolidated B-24 were the two standard US heavy bombers until the B-29 Superfortress was introduced. The B-17 was flown by the Army Air Corps throughout WWII. It was used to bombard German targets. Later the chin turret was introduced, such as in the Memphis Belle. An example of the B-1 is displayed at the Wright Patterson AFB in Dayton, Ohio. A B-24 Liberator, the Strawberry Bitch, is also exhibited there.

The Convair B-36J, "Peacemaker," Strategic Intercontinental Bomber, the largest combat airplane. Its wingspan is 230' and length is 162'. It was built to strike Europe from the US. It was the largest production aircraft ever built. It is distinctive because it is the only aircraft capable of attacking a target on another continent and returning to home base without having to refuel.

where is this place

[IrenaScott]

Dayton, Ohio. Where the Wright brother's developed the first airplane.

[erryfleming11k]

This video went viral on Kuwait

[kepler98]

AWESOME, the blackbird is a beaautiful jetplane

[Patchedwing]

This is the Air Force museum in Dayton Ohio, not Wright Patterson AFB, as IrenaScott already pointed out, in case you missed it. If you're a war bird junky, this is the place to go.

[Patchedwing]

As IrenaScott mentioned, this is the Air Force Museum in Dayton Ohio, not at Wright Patterson AFB. An amazing museum.

"Every gun that is made, every warship launched, every rocket fired signifies in the final sense, a theft from those who hunger and are not fed, those who are cold and are not clothed. This world in arms is not spending money alone. It is spending the sweat of its laborers, the genius of its scientists, the hopes of its children. This is not a way of life at all in any true sense. Under the clouds of war, it is humanity hanging on a cross of iron." ~Dwight D. Eisenhower

[Liridon3mini]
