GUAM ***BEEN TO GUAM*** and beyond the reef Hafa Adai (pronounced HALF A DAY) is "Hello" in Chamorro, the native language of Guam and the islands of the Northern Marianas. I served in GUAM working on KC-135s and B-52s!
What amazes me is they are putting laser defensive systems on B52’s soon. It’s been in development for 6 years. The lasers will be able to target enemy missiles and aircraft. Absolutely amazing.
79-82, 43rd SPS. I've got a plaque in a box somewhere for wing NCO of the Quarter, or Month, can't remember. Great assignment, did a lot of scuba diving, and my wife and son loved the place.
Amazing when you consider that just a few years ago these guys were asking Dad to take the family car down to the local burger joint. Now it's "Can I take the 300million dollar bomber for a spin to work out some glitches.?"
what are the original parts of the B52s? Obviously the fuselage would be mostly original, with some strengthening/ repairs. Are the wings original? They would have gone through plenty of engines. Some of the cockpit must have been upgraded. They would have had radars and other communications/ electronics upgraded every few years. They have been able to keep enough of the original plane to justify its continual service for 50 years.I think they may have retired about half of the original fleet, but not because they were worn out. I think they are going to be still in service till 2030, when drones are planned to take over??
In the mid 70's they started upgrades to the electronic warfare and weapon delivery components. As weapon systems evolved, so did the control consoles that deliver the weapons up to todays standards. The upgrades included the fan jet engines on the H models. D, F, and G models are all out of service, only H models still fly. Whether drones will replace heavy delivery systems, we'll have to wait and see.
Try again. They plan to be in service until Atleast the 2050’s. They are giving the entire fleet brand new engines that are more powerful and fuel efficient so they need less tank ups. This one you won’t believe me but do a google search. Starting this year they are adding laser defenses to the B52. They’ve been in development for more than 5 years. The solid state lasers will be able to target incoming missiles and aircraft, giving the B52 incredible survivability.

Fly at 60 thousand feet is there really anything that can hit that thing? upgrade it and use it for a guided missle bus at 60,000 feet my god thing is a demon.
@@barrygrant2907 Yes, we could not get to 60,000 ft even with no weapons and just about out of fuel. Early in a mission, when full of gas and weapons we couldn't even get to 40,000 ft.

GUAM
***BEEN TO GUAM*** and beyond the reef
Hafa Adai (pronounced HALF A DAY) is "Hello" in Chamorro, the native language of Guam and the islands of the Northern Marianas.
I served in GUAM working on KC-135s and B-52s!
Guam; a place where the daily greeting is also their work ethic.
I was stationed at NAS Naval Air Base from 1976 to 1979
What amazes me is they are putting laser defensive systems on B52’s soon. It’s been in development for 6 years. The lasers will be able to target enemy missiles and aircraft. Absolutely amazing.
was there in 68 TDY from U-T
I WAS STATIONED IN GUAM WHEN IT WAS THE43RD STRAT WING

I thought they would have had some older film of the B 52

Ok if we had these B52s during operation linebacker 2 in the Vietnam war would the missions been different ?
We did, although in D & G models. The current H model is basically a G model with upgraded engines.

GEZZA1 b52 is a nuclear bomber and the less tech the better cuz of EMP

Put a laser turret at the bottom to shoot at incoming missiles from below or perhaps a anti-missile drone launcher.
It will be a cold day in hell when Buffs fly at 60,000 feet. 35-40000 is typical.

*starts to hum "when johnny cones marching hone"*
I was stationed there in 72-73 during Arc Light and Linebacker 1&2. Hatred the fucking place, glad I never went back.

Okay, but Jesus never tried to fly a B-52.
Does anybody remember a Doug Cooper?
