    I'm an airline pilot based in the UK - the American aircraft could very easily have had radio issues, I hear air traffic control trying to get in contact with aircraft who haven't responded for 10 minutes or more everyday. It's more common than you think - usually down to pilots deep in conversation with each other and not paying attention, but often due to issues with the radios themselves.

    Ex British military here, there are huge numbers of incidents where radios malfunction or pilots are engaged in other activities and don't respond to radio calls. I'd say please don't be defensive about it being a US military aircraft, this happens all of the time and aircraft of all nations have a variety of problems. US military aircraft fly in British airspace in huge numbers so it's more likely to happen. It was a nothing event in the video and is very common.

    I worked on the previous system and when we showed the design to the fighter controllers they complained because we hadn't put anywhere for the assistant. We told them they didn't neeed assistants with the new system. One of them gave us an example. He was in Germany at a NATO base - he had 2 RAF, 2 USAF and 3 Luftwaffe fighter all desperate for fuel. He has a French tanker and a Dutch tanker and he's trying to get them together. The phone rings and his assistant picks it up and then says "Base Commander sir, full dress in the mess tonight do you want chicken or beef". Our frazzled controller says "tell him to fuck off". The assistant unmutes the phone and says "he'll have the chicken sir". We had to admit our software couldn't do that.

    A big difference between US and UK air defence, is that the UK have only minutes to respond to a nuclear bomber attack.
    The UK has vertually no stratigic depth, and no vast ocean between us an the enemy.
    This need for quick responce developed into the quickest jet ever to be built. The Lightning buit by British Electric could accelarate vertically immidietly after leaving the runway, could reach Mach 2 and fly higher than 60,000 feet, above the Russia bomber.

    There used to be two different types of QRA in the RAF. QRA within the UK, as shown in the video, is there to provide a force to intercept a potentially hostile aircraft approaching the UK. But when the RAF used to have a presence in Germany it also provided a QRA responsibility which was offensive in nature. And that was if the shit had really hit the fan. I was in the RAF many years ago, and being on QRA in Germany was a duty I performed on a few occasions - and loved it! The aircraft on QRA at RAF Brüggen weren't armed with missiles to intercept incoming aircraft, but instead loaded with a nuclear weapon - and thankfully never left the ground. The duty of QRA lasted two weeks and it was on a 24hrs on and 24hrs off basis. It started each day at 9am and lasted until 9am the following day. Then you had the following 24hrs until 9am the next morning to yourself when you would be back on shift again. Over a two week period you would do seven full shifts on and seven off, and it was a 'sleeping duty' meaning you slept there - you didn't have to stay awake for the entire 24hrs. There were four squadrons at Brüggen and each provided one aircraft, a pilot and two ground crew (×2 so they could do alternate days), the squadron that was designated the duty squadron for that month also had to provide a spare aircraft making a total of five. The QRA facility was in a secure fenced off area surrounded by watch towers with armed RAF police in them. Each day you would have to perform a routine flight servicing on your aircraft, which took about 20 minutes. The rest of the day was yours, but at least once during your seven day period 'on shift' a practice scramble would be called and you wouldn't know beforehand when that would be - it could be anytime of the day or night. The aircraft would not take off (aircraft NEVER flew with a neuk fitted, unless it was a REAL situation) but would be powered up electrically - needing only the engines to be started - until stood down by SHAPE, usually about 10 minutes later. There was a TV and VCR in the ground crew facility and games etc. There was a kitchen and an allocated cook to provide meals which were very good. QRA at Brüggen was one duty that was a joy to do.

    With the sheer amount of USAF entering UK airspace every year it is inevitable that a few of them will have issues. Military aircraft are not like commercial aircraft and will for example fly through a light storm. This can shake things loose or more to the point cause circuit issues inside something like a radio. This is far less common now than it used to be with valve sets but it still happens. There is another thing. There is now an EJ20x engine as an upgrade to the EJ200. It's 30% more powerful and is a drop in replacement. At 500kts @ 60,000 feet it's 5% more efficient. A few Typhoons have had these fitted (they are expensive even by military jet engine standards) and they now climb at an insane rate. of near 500m per second under optimal conditions. That's start of take-off run to 65,000 feet in something like 75 seconds.

Our RAF radar site handled QRA South. Another site handled QRA North. When a QRA is launched, 2 more aircraft are moved/armed/crewed ready... there is always a QRA set on the ground ready to launch if required. They are on call 24/7...that includes christmas etc. Many times i have been on shift at christmas. Its up to the RAF to 'police' the air around the UK... USAF have very little play at all in it. Hope you enjoyed the video.

    9:44 "Every single aircraft is accounted for. They know their flight path..." Not quite. General aviation (eg private light aircraft) flying under VFR (Visual Flight Rules) need not file any flight plans or even notify atc unless they are flying into restricted zones. Many small airfields do not even have 24 hour air traffic control and pilots basically clear themselves by calling on channel to other aircraft to avoid conflicts (you really don't want to be taxiing unto the runway as another aircraft is landing!).
    Commercial flights file flight plans and both military and commercial aircraft carry transponders that automatically identify the aircraft when interrogated.

    Enjoyed it very much that Americans take interest in their biggest allies abilities. Som info they didn’t disclose in this video you might like to know. The typhoon tranche 4 is able to be supersonic mach 1+ 90 seconds from release of its brakes and cleared to mach 2.2 so it’s an awesome dog fighter as well with its cranked arrow wing design. It also carries the meteor air to air missile check out the states on that if you enjoy such things. It’s a very very good weapon indeed.

    Dez I like your videos mate, it's always positive with your chilled manner. I especially like when you react to the British Army and ww2 . I've been fascinated with the second world war since I was a wee boy. My Gran's uncle was part of the units who got ordered to stay back and fight and hold back the Germans during the Dunkirk evacuation. Their fate was to either get killed or captured which made it possible for the greater majority to escape back to Britain. A harsh but necessary sacrifice. He got gunned down in a field on the French/Belgian border, he had recently turned 18. On my other side of the family my great Grandad served in North Africa in the British 8th Army. He was in the thick of it for a few years but luckily came home with a few medals for his small contribution to the greater cause. God bless all those brave young lads who laid it all on the line to secure our future. Nothing but love for the millions of men from USA and Canada and Australiasia and everywhere else who played their massive parts too.

    13:34 "USAF wouldn't just fly into UK airspace..." The USAF has a number of bases in the UK (technically they are RAF bases currently loaned to the US) and fly their aircraft freely within UK airspace. The operator reported the aircraft as flying out of Marham--that is RAF Marham so they would already know it was almost certainly a military aircraft A quick shout to ATC at Marham would have confirmed the identity of the aircraft and the likely reason for the lack of contact. As a former RAF avionics tech I can, sadly, confirm that such failures are far from rare--I spent way too many hours fixing those radios!

    Your commentary over the top of this should be based in fact not your opinion which with respect, isn’t accurate! I worked as an RAF Aerospace Systems radar operator doing that job, have numerous experiences of launching QRA aircraft and intercepted Russian aircraft.
    Your opinion that US Air Force aircraft don’t have radios that breakdown is wrong. All military aircraft including US Air Force aircraft on occasion suffer from radio equipment malfunction. It results in the aircraft selecting a code of the transponder which alerts radar controllers to the fact the aircraft is experiencing a Comms failure. In this case a pre-existing plan of recovering the aircraft comes into operation.
