Right. They are allowing us to be aware of these aircrafts. There are others they've been working on for years, if not decades, and rest assured they're more advanced.

One Mach equals 767.269mph, miles per hour is used in the US, and one Mach equals 1234.8 kilometers per hour. …………………………………………………………….. There was a comment by one of your viewers to my ratings so to be more specific sea level to altitude is a different speed rating from land to altitude. Here is the break down, The speed of sound (Mach 1) varies with altitude and temperature. If an aircraft is travelling at the speed of sound at sea-level then its speed will be 661 knots (760 miles per hour) or if it is travelling at the speed of sound at 30,000 feet then its speed will be 589 knots (677 miles per hour).

That’s not how physics work. The bullet would travel relative to the object it was fired from. Ever flown on a plane? Can you toss something or just it fly back in your face at 600MPH? It had no gun because it was outflying anything it would have had to shoot at. Besides that it’s not built maneuver like that.
And without continuous propulsion the plane would then fly faster than the bullet just like original commenter said. If you in fact throw something out of a plane it would definitely not continue going faster than the plan Einstein. 😂
@@betozun8850Actually the other guy is right, if you fire the bullet forward it will eventually degrade and drop below the path of the aircraft, even bullets on ww2 fighters did that, you wouldn’t fly into the bullet, the velocity of the bullet will degrade relative to the platform from which it was fired. this is elementary, watch the video about people diving into cruise ship pools.
One note on all of this, is the US military never releases the max speed of the jet. The SR-71 max speed is still classified. We just know its AT least Mach 3.2. So you can be sure the SR-72 can go faster than Mach 6 already.
Yep, we lie about our, military capabilities, but to make ourselves appear weaker, whereas some other countries that might be in a war right now with their neighbor lie to make themselves seem more powerful.
The prices are shocking because they're development prices. Once you figure something out for the first time you're able to streamline the process when remaking it the second.
When I was in the US Military they always told us the tech we were using was stuff they didn't care about losing since we already have tech 10-20 years more advanced that they wouldn't let us use, they are just keeping that stuff in reserve until they are ready to use it(when they have something even better int he works).
It's both sad and amazing simultaneously. I floated around in an I class submarine when I was in the USN. Was there when the seawolf was revealed for sea trials and told its capabilities along with the technology on board.

The b52 is a open airframe, and it has been in service since the 1950's. Some of the original flight crews grandchildren are still flying the same plan thier grandparents did. It's an amazing plan that's been in service for almost 80 years and won't be retired until after 2050
A Mach number is the ratio of an object's speed to the speed of sound. Mach 1 is the Speed of Sound which is about 761 mph. So Mach 2 would be 2 x the speed of sound (1522 mph), Mach 3 is 3 x the speed of sound, etc.
As we increase speed beyond Mach 1, the relationship with the speed of sound is not linear. Instead of being proportional, it becomes exponential. Mach 1 is equal to the speed of sound. Mach 2 is not simply twice the speed of sound; it is faster due to the compressibility of air. As we move toward Mach 3, Mach 4, and beyond, the relationship becomes increasingly complex and nonlinear.
Fun fact about the predecessor, SR-71, the interesting design for the fuel tanks meant that the aircraft would actually leak fuel when it was on the ground. They specifically designed it like this because, at the time, we didn't have a way to seal the tanks with a material that would maintain a seal at both sea level and at its max ceiling height and cruise speed. On the runway, it leaks. On takeoff, it leaks. When its flying, it doesnt. Because of this, they used a special fuel specifically made for it, the fuel being designed to require an extremely high flashpoint temperature to avoid any possible accidental fires on the ground. Even the engines warming up and firing on the takeoff would not cause external fuel on the ground to ignite. There was also a myth going around that the SR-71's airframe would actually stretch by over a foot while at max speed because of thermal expansion. This isn't true. Torrey Larsen (from Skunk Works) determined that, at most, it stretches less than 2 inches. Still crazy, but definitely not as much as a whole foot or more.
@@sunondalyons73 yeah it's been trying for 2 years in Ukraine, sure you can say they haven't been there its Ukraine doing the fighting and that the USA would have air and maritime warfare in comparison to the Ukrainian army, in full fledge war, every single boat/carrier/etc would be simply floating coffins, attacking mainland Russia with planes? expect the same to happen mainland US, the US would faster fall into the stone age than Russia.
@yomamayosista Bull... attacking the mainland United States is a logistical nightmare. Did you honestly compare the Ukraine to the USA military? Russia allied themselves with China for a reason. If both nations fought without nukes, the United States would crush Russia. Russia is no longer a super power.
I think you're getting your aircraft mixed up the F35. It's about fifteen years old And the f-22 raptor is twenty to twenty five And the raptors stopped production about ten years after Being officially a part of the air force
Remember In The USA Military All Top Secret Technology is Always at-least 60 years ahead/ advance. What Ever is Unclassified is already old technology.
I wouldn't call it "old". Just because you have one or even a few super advanced craft means nothing if you can't utilize logistics to properly field them (see Russia's SU-57). Prototyping, testing, and future-proofing a design is just 1/3rd of the process. Second is contracting manufacturers to make the prototype at scale. Then you have to test the production models to ensure they're on par with the prototype (or even improve the design further). Then they have to be integrated into US battle doctrine. Then pilots have to be trained to not only use it but push the craft to its full capabilities. And the capabilities are then compared with rival peer state equivalents, if they exist. The F-22, as an example, is still "new" by world standards because there is no comparison in any other nation's inventory that has the same numbers as the F-22 (187 in US so far) and any craft that are close are still not as effective or advanced as the F-22 (there is a reason the US doesn't sell them to any allies). The Darkstar might as well be a UFO from another planet to nations like China and Russia, they have nothing remotely close. What's scary is what we have that no one knows about that is waiting to be scaled into production. It's interesting that there is probably an entire treasure trove of futuristic gear, systems, and craft that are just gathering dust at Skunkworks because we didn't have the infrastructure or resources to scale up production.
I mean there is credible people including the guy that ran the uav department that has confirmed that the us government has in possession crashed alien spacecraft
@@PenTheMighty all things the US doesnt have issues with. Maybe Russia and the rest of the world. Just like the F-22 raptor, thing is 20 years old and still the best jet in the sky(granted they just did some updates to it).
@@SavageHeliosOne Yes, altitude can affect the speed of sound. Sound generally travels more slowly at higher altitudes because the air is colder and less dense. At sea level, sound travels at about 760 miles per hour, but at 30,000 feet it's closer to 670 miles per hour. This decrease in speed with altitude is called a negative sound speed gradient.
I'm so glad they finally announced this. As they said, there have been rumors for years. Very cool plane. And the Quarterhourse is exciting for a whole differnet reason. Return of the Concord, but without having to blow windows out everywhere it goes.
When they were giving the different cost of the planes and projects, they were sometimes referring to overall development costs or sometimes like the B-2 Bomber per plane cost. Most of the time they were talking about development cost not per plane or jet engine.
It's just a really good thing that America respects other Countries right to their own government. It's only when those countries or evil groups start interfering with our people or our allies, that America will step in. We will always protect.... We are not perfect, but we are good.
No we're just good at pulling the wool over people's eyes. We've quietly over thrown more countries and installed political puppets than you realize. Damn near the whole middle east. Syria, libiya, Afghanistan, African countries. American government is corrupt to the core just like most first world nations. Our citizens are good, our leaders are evil.
mach 1 = 767.269 MPH = 1234.799762 KPH mach 6 = 4603.61 MPH = 7408.792132 KPH what they where talking about at 6 billion for the engine was just the development costs not the production costs most likely if they can sell enuf of them the cost will likely be around 1 million for each engine
Writing the speed out to 3 decimal places is hilarious. Just so you know it's not necessary or even correct to express the speed like that. 770 mph is perfectly acceptable and the common approach.
The 6 billion for the engine they spoke about was the cost of development not the unit cost. The more you make of something the unit cost tends to be lower.
Nor new tech at all just remember our modern advanced gen 6 f35 planes are 15 years old imagine how long this was already in stocks ready to go "a test model might be ready soon" yeah alright 😂
Sound travels at sound travels through air at 343 meters per second (m/s), or 1 kilometer in 2.91 seconds. This is Mach 1. The SR 71 traveled at 3.2 times the speed of sound. DarkStar is claimed to fly 6 times the speed of sound. Since Hypersonic is mach 5, the Dark Star travels faster than hyper speed. Pilots can pass out at around 3Gs. I wonder how many G-forces are created at Mach 6. G-forces accounts for how many times your own weight
Mach 1 at sea level is around 700 MPH. The air at low altitude is too dense for max speed, Sound waves propagate faster at higher densities. In general, the denser the medium the faster sound propagates through it. The speed of sound in water is around 1300 FPS, in bone it goes up astronomically. I spent many years working with sound physics.
I'm in Canada and here we use a mixture of standard and metric scales, but officially we use the metric system, so in kilometers per hour, Mach 1 works out to 1234.8 kph.
Another reason the SR 71 carried to weapons was because it's not practical to fire a weapon if the plane can outrun it's own munitions. Also, the likelihood was high that the SR 71 would run into its own bullets or missiles, if they did use them, since we didn't have have missiles fast enough.
A university just developed a prototype for sustained supersonic engine….. And they said developing it further could result in a Commercial trip from L.A. to NYC in about 12minutes. That’s normally a 5-6 hour flight 😂
Well, it better damn well be "GREEN" and use batteries and be rechargeable or the left will snivel like a rat eating an onion and piss themselves again. Remember, they are democRATS.
The camera equipment in the SR71 was so advanced it could snap a photo of a penny on the ground from 70k feet and you could see the date. 1 million per photo.
Mechanical Engineer who has worked in the defence industry. The Mach Number is defined by the ratio of speed divided by the speed of sound of the fluid. M=V/a where: M=Mach number V=Velocity and a=speed of sound of the fluid. a can be calculated as the square root of the Gamma x R x Temperature. For air its about 340 to 360 metres per second. For a different fluid for example water at room temperature, the speed of sound is around 1400 metres per second. For our conversation we will stick with air. So when the velocity V = 360 m/s and a = 360 m/s then M=360/360=1, hence Mach 1. The Mach number does not have units as both V and a have units of m/s and they cancle each other out. hope that helps
Nope, your figure is high. Check your math again. The speed of sound is approximately 760mph (mach 1). Your math outs the speed of sound at more than 1,000mph.
No no no, the engine cost 6 Billion TO DEVELOP. As far as laser weapons, they cost a lot to build, and it takes a whole lot of energy to fire them. But, on the plus side, they are invisible, are faster. And are a whole hell of a lot Cheaper TO FIRE.🙂
All this talk about speed and cost and laser weapons means nothing if it can't kill a lot of people at one time. Does anyone know how many people it can kill with the laser weapon...?
You need to check out the X-15 Rocket Plane. The fastest-winged manned aircraft ever. (4520 mph) The US learned about hypersonic flight and re-entry from low space with the X-15. The test pilots were later awarded astronaut wings. I don't know if the SR-72 is functional or still CGI. Working on it doesn't mean it exists.
This plane is entirely black on paper. Meaning it doesn’t exist. It’s funded entirely secretly by who knows. I only know it exists because of rumors online. This plane is the follow-up to the legendary SR-71 Blackbird. This can easily outrun any missile or rocket fired on it plus it’s titanium meaning it’s heatproof. This plane is beyond fast to speeds not really seen before. The SR-71 was mostly a plane that spied on the former Soviet Union although it saw use when they tried moving across afghan territory.
Darkstar is already up there and operating. Its code name was Aurorra, been in development since the mid 90's. There is a famous mark in the US budget for Aurorra which was quickly hushed and covered up.
Bruh, your girlfriend is so funny when giving her stats on how fast Mach speed is, she's hilarious and beautiful, she's a keeper. Great reaction by the way, hello from Brisbane, Australia
1 mach is point break of sound barrier. When you reach the speed of sound and break that barrier, you've reached Mach 1 = 761 mph. The blackbird sr71 was faster then time. It took off from NY at 1:00 p.m. it landed in California LA at 11:23 a.m. same day
You have to understand that that 1 piece costing.6 billion dollars was actually the cost of research and development and when they start making more and more and more of them.The price will drop a lot and that has to do with the entire plane as well
According to Leo AI from brave browser: Q: How fast is mach 6 in mph A: Mach 6 is a speed of 6 times the speed of sound. The speed of sound varies depending on the air density and temperature, but for our calculation, one Mach is equal to 761.207 mph. Calculating Mach 6 in mph To calculate Mach 6 in mph, we multiply the speed of sound by 6: 6 x 761.207 mph = 4,567.42 mph
Mach 6 is the unclassified speed... So it goes faster.. Read something about 10 years ago in Popular Mechanics. In Langley, Virginia, they were experimenting with propulsion systems for scramjets... Here it is.
Gunfighters of the old west use to say, no matter how fast you think you are, there will always be someone faster, you notice they also said as long as it's not a "hypersonic" missile they can out run any missile. No tech is immortal
One thing about the US military we have technology that a lot of people don't know about and that's what keeps us on top in the world and they don't say everything about what it can do !
FYI, Mach is the speed of sound and is not a set value as the speed of sound varies at different air densities. The higher the air density, the lower the MPH/KPH required to reach the speed of sound. At 15° C (59° F) the speed of sound is approximately 340.3 meters per second (761.23 MPH / 1225.1 KPH)
I work near a general electric. one morning, 3 am during a break in rain storm, i heard a jet engine sound from over G.E. It was so crazy I had to grab a co-worker to listen to it. It sounded like it was on a dyno. High power, low power and constant high power for maybe 10min. I've heard loud jets before, but this thing was different. United States has many black projects some under our noses😊
They talk like a ramjet/turbojet is new? Pratt & Whitney J58 was first run in 1958 as a "turbo/ramjet" that powered the SR-71. The engine could go faster but the plane would've melted around the pilot. Check out any video on the engine.
Probably similar cost to an Aircraft Carrier (Accompanied by a fleet of smart Aircraft)…. USA has 11 Carriers (surrounded by a fleet of support vessels).
F22 is currently going through an extensive upgrade program, they aren't going to stop flying anytime soon. When they do stop flying, they will almost certainly go into "type 1000" storage, where they will be kept in a climate-controlled storage in near-airworthy condition so that it can be put back into service at any time with minimal work needed to do so.
A laser is a beam of light. The more focused it is, the hotter it is. And light travels at light speed. Think about when a missle is shot, it takes seconds or even minutes to reach its target. The target has time to try to evade. With a laser, it travels at the speed of light. If it is aimed correctly there is no evasion. When the trigger is pulled, the target is destroyed. Now, back that laser with a computerized targeting system and you can shoot down multiple targets so quickly they don't have a chance.
The stealth bomber we had 50 years before we unveiled it. It also sounds like musk has one that is more advanced then the sr72. With more offensive capabilities.
It's common knowledge in the States, if they are showing you what is apparently "new", they are already working on something else. They tend to do this
one thing about tech is that our military has tech that isnt reviled to the public until newer tech has come out then once they have tech that is outdated its released to most companies then to normal citizens and call it new tech
Costs: The research and development is what costs so much because they have to start over so many times to get it right. Production making aircraft is on an assembly line like anything else and costs drop significantly, the more that is ordered the cost drops dramatically.
Because this platform is upgradable with different parts, there entire fleet will be varied. Darkstar 1 will be a laser type, Darkstar 2 could be a dog fighting type with detachable drones. This will dominate everything.

The F-22, as an example, is still "new" by world standards because there is no comparison in any other nation's inventory that has the same numbers as the F-22 (187 in US so far) and any craft that are close are still not as effective or advanced as the F-22 (there is a reason the US doesn't sell them to any allies). The Darkstar might as well be a UFO from another planet to nations like China and Russia, they have nothing remotely close.
What's scary is what we have that no one knows about that is waiting to be scaled into production.
It's interesting that there is probably an entire treasure trove of futuristic gear, systems, and craft that are just gathering dust at Skunkworks because we didn't have the infrastructure or resources to scale up production.
I mean there is credible people including the guy that ran the uav department that has confirmed that the us government has in possession crashed alien spacecraft
@@PenTheMightydoes our government even know about it? It’s crazy how steep US military tech secrecy goes.
@@PenTheMighty all things the US doesnt have issues with. Maybe Russia and the rest of the world. Just like the F-22 raptor, thing is 20 years old and still the best jet in the sky(granted they just did some updates to it).
'Darkstar' such a cool and fitting name..
It comes from Top Gun: Maverick's craft.
They stole it from a single released in 1968 by the Grateful Dead lol
At 20 °C (68 °F), the speed of sound in air is about 343 m/s (1,125 ft/s; 1,235 km/h; 767 mph.
Does altitude matter?
@@SavageHeliosOne Yes, altitude can affect the speed of sound. Sound generally travels more slowly at higher altitudes because the air is colder and less dense. At sea level, sound travels at about 760 miles per hour, but at 30,000 feet it's closer to 670 miles per hour. This decrease in speed with altitude is called a negative sound speed gradient.
I'm so glad they finally announced this. As they said, there have been rumors for years. Very cool plane. And the Quarterhourse is exciting for a whole differnet reason. Return of the Concord, but without having to blow windows out everywhere it goes.
Watch both Top Guns together.
I wore my Top Gun T-Shirt today 😂
When they were giving the different cost of the planes and projects, they were sometimes referring to overall development costs or sometimes like the B-2 Bomber per plane cost. Most of the time they were talking about development cost not per plane or jet engine.
In the voice of Dr. Evil "Unbeatable except by a Laser, a Laser mounted on a Shark"😂😆😂
Can't be jammed vs GPS navigation. Uses the stars to guide it.
not even that. gps jamming is rather limited range wise given its speed it wouldnt be inside any jammers range very long so would just require gps
It's just a really good thing that America respects other Countries right to their own government. It's only when those countries or evil groups start interfering with our people or our allies, that America will step in. We will always protect.... We are not perfect, but we are good.
Absolutely,very proud 🇺🇸
No we're just good at pulling the wool over people's eyes. We've quietly over thrown more countries and installed political puppets than you realize. Damn near the whole middle east. Syria, libiya, Afghanistan, African countries. American government is corrupt to the core just like most first world nations. Our citizens are good, our leaders are evil.
😂😂😂😂😂😂
have you been living under a rock since the stolen election in 2020 and 2022???
mach 1 = 767.269 MPH = 1234.799762 KPH
mach 6 = 4603.61 MPH = 7408.792132 KPH
what they where talking about at 6 billion for the engine was just the development costs not the production costs
most likely if they can sell enuf of them the cost will likely be around 1 million for each engine
You know the black scales on the bottom of the space shuttle is the material the plane is made from.
9:39 mach 1 767.269 miles per hour mach 20 15345.383 miles per hour
Writing the speed out to 3 decimal places is hilarious. Just so you know it's not necessary or even correct to express the speed like that. 770 mph is perfectly acceptable and the common approach.
I appreciate the details.
Thank you. 👍
The speed of sound varies with temperature which is why it is a higher number at altitude or in the winter.
The 6 billion for the engine they spoke about was the cost of development not the unit cost. The more you make of something the unit cost tends to be lower.
There is a difference in development cost and actual per unit cost. The former is the design phase cost, THEN you have build cost which is much lower.
They were building this Air Craft at area -51 where people was dying building this Air Craft and so secret.
listen to the LA speed test story about the SR71, its hilarious
That was
Mach 6 (of sound at sea level) is 7413.12 kph.
The B 2 spirit is the only combat plane that has a bathroom and a way to cook something to eat. Amazing.
Have to listen to this SR 71 story. Classic: LA SPEED STORY - SR-71 Pilot Brian Shul USAF (Ret.)
The sr72 had some satelite pictures taken a while back. I would suggest researching skunk works.
It was 6 billion to develop, new tech always cost a lot but it always comes down over time
Nor new tech at all just remember our modern advanced gen 6 f35 planes are 15 years old imagine how long this was already in stocks ready to go "a test model might be ready soon" yeah alright 😂
Sound travels at sound travels through air at 343 meters per second (m/s), or 1 kilometer in 2.91 seconds. This is Mach 1. The SR 71 traveled at 3.2 times the speed of sound. DarkStar is claimed to fly 6 times the speed of sound. Since Hypersonic is mach 5, the Dark Star travels faster than hyper speed. Pilots can pass out at around 3Gs. I wonder how many G-forces are created at Mach 6. G-forces accounts for how many times your own weight
Mach 1 at sea level is around 700 MPH. The air at low altitude is too dense for max speed, Sound waves propagate faster at higher densities. In general, the denser the medium the faster sound propagates through it. The speed of sound in water is around 1300 FPS, in bone it goes up astronomically.
I spent many years working with sound physics.
I'm in Canada and here we use a mixture of standard and metric scales, but officially we use the metric system, so in kilometers per hour, Mach 1 works out to 1234.8 kph.
Another reason the SR 71 carried to weapons was because it's not practical to fire a weapon if the plane can outrun it's own munitions. Also, the likelihood was high that the SR 71 would run into its own bullets or missiles, if they did use them, since we didn't have have missiles fast enough.
There was a fighter variant built, but as far as we know, it wasn't used much.
A university just developed a prototype for sustained supersonic engine…..
And they said developing it further could result in a Commercial trip from L.A. to NYC in about 12minutes.
That’s normally a 5-6 hour flight 😂
Well, it better damn well be "GREEN" and use batteries and be rechargeable or the left will snivel like a rat eating an onion and piss themselves again. Remember, they are democRATS.
The camera equipment in the SR71 was so advanced it could snap a photo of a penny on the ground from 70k feet and you could see the date. 1 million per photo.
Mechanical Engineer who has worked in the defence industry. The Mach Number is defined by the ratio of speed divided by the speed of sound of the fluid. M=V/a where: M=Mach number V=Velocity and a=speed of sound of the fluid. a can be calculated as the square root of the Gamma x R x Temperature. For air its about 340 to 360 metres per second. For a different fluid for example water at room temperature, the speed of sound is around 1400 metres per second. For our conversation we will stick with air. So when the velocity V = 360 m/s and a = 360 m/s then M=360/360=1, hence Mach 1. The Mach number does not have units as both V and a have units of m/s and they cancle each other out. hope that helps
Mach 1 is approximately 767.66 mph.
Yes Mach 6 is going at a speed faster than 6300 miles per hour. That's insane!
Hypersonic👍✌️
Nope, your figure is high. Check your math again. The speed of sound is approximately 760mph (mach 1).
Your math outs the speed of sound at more than 1,000mph.
@@freedomseeds4713 I appreciate the correction. I was quite off. 😊👍🏻
The speed in miles per hour is equal to the Mach number multiplied by 767.269148.
No no no, the engine cost 6 Billion TO DEVELOP. As far as laser weapons, they cost a lot to build, and it takes a whole lot of energy to fire them. But, on the plus side, they are invisible, are faster. And are a whole hell of a lot Cheaper TO FIRE.🙂
It will be great if they can move fro. Combustion fuel to electric . A mini nuclear power plant. It would be very dangerous
All this talk about speed and cost and laser weapons means nothing if it can't kill a lot of people at one time. Does anyone know how many people it can kill with the laser weapon...?
Nothing is as sexy as the SR-71 ;-) Mach 20 lets you go into orbit.
You need to check out the X-15 Rocket Plane. The fastest-winged manned aircraft ever. (4520 mph) The US learned about hypersonic flight and re-entry from low space with the X-15. The test pilots were later awarded astronaut wings. I don't know if the SR-72 is functional or still CGI. Working on it doesn't mean it exists.
By the time we hear about a new "airplane" they are already in the process of designing/building the next generation.
The x 15 was more of a rocket than a plane...it def was amazing...
This plane is entirely black on paper. Meaning it doesn’t exist. It’s funded entirely secretly by who knows. I only know it exists because of rumors online. This plane is the follow-up to the legendary SR-71 Blackbird. This can easily outrun any missile or rocket fired on it plus it’s titanium meaning it’s heatproof. This plane is beyond fast to speeds not really seen before.
The SR-71 was mostly a plane that spied on the former Soviet Union although it saw use when they tried moving across afghan territory.
Darkstar is already up there and operating. Its code name was Aurorra, been in development since the mid 90's. There is a famous mark in the US budget for Aurorra which was quickly hushed and covered up.
If yall follow up on my suggestion to react to the movie Top Gun: Maverick, yall will see this plane, or at least the concept of it, in action
According to some sources, China actually diverted a satellite to view the movie prop.
Bruh, your girlfriend is so funny when giving her stats on how fast Mach speed is, she's hilarious and beautiful, she's a keeper. Great reaction by the way, hello from Brisbane, Australia
1 mach is point break of sound barrier. When you reach the speed of sound and break that barrier, you've reached Mach 1 = 761 mph.
The blackbird sr71 was faster then time. It took off from NY at 1:00 p.m. it landed in California LA at 11:23 a.m. same day
mach 1 is equal to the speed of sound which is roughly 767 miles per hour ( and YES we use miles per hour in the states)
I had lunch with an alien at area 51,his name was Paul.
"Hello. I am Paul Alien. May I join you for lunch?"
Who paid for the lunch? And, with what?
Top gun 2 is a must watch
Mach 1 is the speed of sound.
One Mach is the speed of sound... basically (760 Miles per hour)
You have to understand that that 1 piece costing.6 billion dollars was actually the cost of research and development and when they start making more and more and more of them.The price will drop a lot and that has to do with the entire plane as well
Yee
According to Leo AI from brave browser: Q: How fast is mach 6 in mph
A: Mach 6 is a speed of 6 times the speed of sound. The speed of sound varies depending on the air density and temperature, but for our calculation, one Mach is equal to 761.207 mph.
Calculating Mach 6 in mph
To calculate Mach 6 in mph, we multiply the speed of sound by 6:
6 x 761.207 mph = 4,567.42 mph
A Mach number changes at different altitudes. But generally, Mach 1 is about 710mph.
Mach 6 is the unclassified speed... So it goes faster.. Read something about 10 years ago in Popular Mechanics. In Langley, Virginia, they were experimenting with propulsion systems for scramjets... Here it is.
SR-72 at Mach 6 can travel around 4,600 mph
Gunfighters of the old west use to say, no matter how fast you think you are, there will always be someone faster, you notice they also said as long as it's not a "hypersonic" missile they can out run any missile. No tech is immortal
Love the SR-71, but the CIA had something a little different called the A-12.
It's already in service It's been seen taking off It's as fast as lightning
One thing about the US military we have technology that a lot of people don't know about and that's what keeps us on top in the world and they don't say everything about what it can do !
Mach 1 is approximately 761 mph (1,225 km/h)
761.23 mph; 1,225.1 km/h at sea level...faster in upper atmosphere.
FYI, Mach is the speed of sound and is not a set value as the speed of sound varies at different air densities. The higher the air density, the lower the MPH/KPH required to reach the speed of sound. At 15° C (59° F) the speed of sound is approximately 340.3 meters per second (761.23 MPH / 1225.1 KPH)
Keep in mind, Darkstar can achieve Mach 6 which equates up to or about (4,600 MPH).
I work near a general electric. one morning, 3 am during a break in rain storm, i heard a jet engine sound from over G.E. It was so crazy I had to grab a co-worker to listen to it. It sounded like it was on a dyno. High power, low power and constant high power for maybe 10min. I've heard loud jets before, but this thing was different. United States has many black projects some under our noses😊
You can picture Maverick flying inverted with Goose taking a snapshot of a Russian Hypersonic Missel at full burn 🤣🤣👍👍
I still giggle that they use sr when it supposed to be rs (recon) and it was a typo for the SR 71 that stuck.
Her eyebrows are perfect. I have perfect eyebrows and I'm jealous
I was thinking all through this: "I've never seen eyse like that on a live person. I've seen them in paintings and magazines. They are amazing...
They talk like a ramjet/turbojet is new? Pratt & Whitney J58 was first run in 1958 as a "turbo/ramjet" that powered the SR-71. The engine could go faster but the plane would've melted around the pilot. Check out any video on the engine.
Still waiting for a hypersonic toilet flushing system
Probably similar cost to an Aircraft Carrier (Accompanied by a fleet of smart Aircraft)….
USA has 11 Carriers (surrounded by a fleet of support vessels).
F22 is currently going through an extensive upgrade program, they aren't going to stop flying anytime soon. When they do stop flying, they will almost certainly go into "type 1000" storage, where they will be kept in a climate-controlled storage in near-airworthy condition so that it can be put back into service at any time with minimal work needed to do so.
A laser is a beam of light. The more focused it is, the hotter it is. And light travels at light speed. Think about when a missle is shot, it takes seconds or even minutes to reach its target. The target has time to try to evade. With a laser, it travels at the speed of light. If it is aimed correctly there is no evasion. When the trigger is pulled, the target is destroyed. Now, back that laser with a computerized targeting system and you can shoot down multiple targets so quickly they don't have a chance.
Just side note the B-52 is not scheduled for retirement until it is 100 years old
Mach 20 = 15,345.4 mph Lol That's insane!
That would make the SR72 fly over 4,500 MPH or 7,242KM/H
The stealth bomber we had 50 years before we unveiled it. It also sounds like musk has one that is more advanced then the sr72. With more offensive capabilities.
She said ‘Ok, 500.’
😂
Turns out that levity and beauty blend quite well.
The SR-71 was planned in the 1940's and designed in the 1950's.
When the public officially knows it always means the tech is outdated to whatever new tech we won't know about for couple decades.
Mach 1= 767.269 mph
Mach 20= 15,343.383 mph
It's common knowledge in the States, if they are showing you what is apparently "new", they are already working on something else. They tend to do this
It's a sofisticated flying bullet more or less . untouchable
Your content and reactions are awesome. Thank you.
one thing about tech is that our military has tech that isnt reviled to the public until newer tech has come out
then once they have tech that is outdated its released to most companies then to normal citizens and call it new tech
The brits are so happy to be considered as a friendly to the United States.
Mach 1 is approximately 762 mph (1,236 km/h) at sea level.
To calculate Mach 20, multiply Mach 1 by 20:
762 mph (Mach 1) × 20 = 15,240 mph
Mach 1 is equal to the speed of sound which is 767 Miles per hour. Each Mach number is multiplied by that number.
Costs: The research and development is what costs so much because they have to start over so many times to get it right. Production making aircraft is on an assembly line like anything else and costs drop significantly, the more that is ordered the cost drops dramatically.
Because this platform is upgradable with different parts, there entire fleet will be varied. Darkstar 1 will be a laser type, Darkstar 2 could be a dog fighting type with detachable drones. This will dominate everything.
