See The Fastest Aircraft In The World by Openbusiness: 10:17am On Aug 31, 2020 |
This plane is sooooooooo faaaaaast that YOU CAN'T EVEN HEAR IT WHEN IT IS COMING . It is the fastest manned (pilot driven) aircraft using jet engine in the world. There's only 1 other aircraft faster than this in this world and it uses a ROCKET ENGINE, the kind of engine space shuttles use, so it's not the same exact categorization with this. This aircraft doesn't carry bombs, it isn't equipped with missiles or fighter jet machine guns. Its only weapon is SPEED. For 10 years when it was made, nobody knew it existed. It would fly into different countries for reconnaissance operations and nobody was aware. It would fly in and fly out so quickly before radars systems could pick it up. Throughout its 35 years in active service, over 1,000 missiles were fired at it while flying through enemy territories, but no single missile could catch it. It was too fast The Flash of the Skies, the terror of radar defense systems, the conqueror of heat seeking missiles and guided missiles, I introduce to you, The SR-71.Written By: Openbusiness Reference: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ogJSRa5cukc https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F4KD5u-xkik https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OBVmYi7mkZM https://migflug.com/jetflights/remarkable-airplanes-of-the-world-part-1-the-fastest/

Stocktrader:if you check my post, you will see where I mentioned that it has been DECOMMISSIONED. And then went further to say a NEWER model will be around by 2023. The purpose of this thread is to highlight the fastest jet engine aircraft on record. But I appreciate that your contribution. If you have more info on this wonderful machine, please do share |

Oh my oh my. This is the SR-71. Also called the black bird. This plane was a cold war invention that was way ahead of it's time. It outflew every plane and outran every missile. Capable of altitude of up to 85,000 feet. Pilots of this plane could fly so high that they could literally see the curvature of the earth. Shame that it had to be retired. Reason being that it cost the government millions of dollars to maintain. All blackbirds are currently resting in different museums around the world. It is more of a monumental piece now.

Looks fabulous. I think I’ve watched a documentary on it and when it was used on sm missions. It has supersonic speed capabilities that creates and explosive sound. 1 Like 1 Share |

Openbusiness: Spambot stopped me from posting here, so i can reply now. It's not the Jet Engine that made it the fastest, but The Ramjet. I know everything about that plane like the back of my palm. 1 Like |
Re: See The Fastest Aircraft In The World by Openbusiness: 8:52am On Sep 02, 2020 |
Stocktrader:Very cool. It's nice to know you're an enthusiast. Thanks for your contribution. The ramjet is a jet engine. Why I made that distinction on jet engine is because the X15 aircraft is faster that the SR-71 but that one uses a "Rocket Engine'. As far as jet engines go, the Blackbird is the fastest. |
