The SR-71 was the most genuine looking airplane ever built. It had the high-speed, and high altitude capability. It was a marvel in it's own right.
It would be a marvel if it was built today let alone when they built it.
@@tomdiets5079 She leaked like a sieve on the ground though.
@@silent1967 Yes, but that was by design and necessary at the time to compensate for the heating and expansion of the aircraft skin during high speed flight. It was not consider a failure or in engineering or fault in build process or quality.
I whole heartedly agree the sr 71 is a great plane and if it was made today it'd probably be the goat
Most beautiful machine ever made by man.
How old is this video because the last time a SR71 flew was in october 1999
It is a game engine
Not true, I went to a Edwards AF airshow in 2001 and they were retiring a SR-71 it was that planes last flight.
That was when they were retired from official service but there are still 2 operational SR71s.
@@TheNightWatcher1385 there’s actually more than that
@@mosquitofleetfishing6599 I mean ones that are still operational. There are many more in museums though.
It's a simulator. Says so in the description.
ya I wonder why they didn't react to the sound of the boom
The hexagonal glares made it obvious
@@_Northpentagonal lens flare is a thing that exists in real life with real lenses
@@scslre I am unfamiliar with the geometry of lens flares but those are hexagons.
@@joeysplats3209 i was responding to the comment. i didn't actually check the shape. hexagonal lens flare exist irl, too. we live in a wondrous world of shapes.
I lived in Palmdale, CA in 1990 and was outside when they did the speed run from LA to Washington DC for the retirement flight. I heard the sonic boom wasn't as loud as in this video they were so high up. Local news talked about it for few weeks we knew it was going to happen we got up around 5:30am and waited outside until we heard it about 6am.
I heard the sonic boom in henderson nevada in 90 from that flight. Was in the backyard at around 6am watching for it
part of history..... a friend of mine ran NELLIS A.F.B., never told me anything, except he liked his morning coffee black
I saw the east coast end of that flight from New Jersey. It was absolutely incredible how high it was and how fast it was going.
Used to live on the other side in North Edwards, yep, always would run out side to see what was up and was never disappointed.
Both my grandparents lived in Lancaster! One of my grandpas worked on the SR-71, while the other designed the L-1011. The one that did the SR unfortunately died in 2019 but Lancaster is my favorite place to visit since there's so much history there. I remember when I visited my family for my grandpa's memorial, looked outside, and saw a B-2 emerge from the clouds. So damn cool.
This is one experience i would add to my bucket list but as far as I know they almost never fly this massive feat of engineering anymore. You guys are lucky to have experienced this!
And unfortunately it is a sim :(
I wouldn’t.
It’s uncomfortable and loud and it’s a plane that has the same weight, thrust, and maneuverability as a Boeing 737… without drink service and cute flight attendants.. and the earth still goes by very slowly at 80,000 feet and Mach 3.
It’s bragging rights… that’s it.
I am lucky to have seen a Blackbird do a Mach 3 pass at 80,000 ft over Beale AFB back in 1980. You couldn't see the plane except for the smoke trail it left.
I will never forget that.
Gawker
Served at Beale in the early 80’s. Once you see those two KC135 tankers take off we got ready for the rumble from the CES barracks! 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
Some are skeptical about the veracity of this footage. It does seem to be filmed with contemporary technology but would have to have been filmed +20 years ago. Does the footage look similar to your experience of having seen it? Personally I think the footage shows a plane at much less than the 60,000ft you would otherwise find the Black Bird at. At 60,000ft you would likely not see the outline of the plane, at all (& definitely not with circa year 2000 video equipment). Cheers 👍
Seems it was in fact a sim. Looks very good though 😉
@@mickeysmiths Yeah, he's using DCS World. It's a combat flight simulator. This is why I love Iceman's videos, his attention to detail makes it so convincing. Especially with the ambient sound FX and voices.
I saw an SR71 flying over my house in the UK in the mid 1970s when I was just a kid. It was magnificent.
I also got to see Concorde every day too when she was in service.
Two spectacular aircraft.
And both of them were gone too soon, just like the late An-225.
@@michaelmurray7199Might get to see some new supersonic passenger planes in the future if we get new research with NASA’s new plane that studying how to reduce the sonic boom effect
Well..
They said, that very few people seen this plane ( SR 71 )..on a flight .
I'm from the lucky ones
1976 ,
On a low flight above my village

DCS, However, I am sure that there are planes in the sky that you don't know about.
NGAD's full scale flight demonstrator prototype flew in September 2020, I'm sure it's flown quite a few more times since then
i hear planes on a clear blue sky i cant see.
That goddamned triangle 😩😫😣😔😏😖
@@user-oe1fy6jv1pprobably just passenger planes. The white bottoms reflect quite a bit of sun, and blend them with the sky quite well
Satellites replaced sneaky planes.
god dcs looks good
Too good really. There would be atmospheric distortion if this was a real camera shot.
I saw the real thing over the Sierras and that is a very accurate rendering. Well done.
Not even a render lol it's DCS
Hands-down, my favorite nobody will ever change my mind.
Just wait until the SR-72 is revealed
@@iananderson8106 oh man don’t tease me dude lol
Are people trying to change your mind?
Most beautiful machine ever made by man.
@@possiblepilotdeviation5791 Ian try to I think, call me intrigued lol.
The plane was called the RS71, but president Johnson called it the SR71, and nobody was going to correct the president, so now you know the history.
Not true
Myth.
Just like the LA Speed check or overflying the Soviet Union.
yes
for people who dont know if you look up on google what mach did the black bird go at google might say mach 3.23 or something no the black bird went around mach 5
I remember all the whining in the US in the seventies about concorde and its sonic boom but with military aircraft that’s all fine and dandy to go supersonic over land . It was sour grapes because America couldn’t build an SST .
lol… read some history
The anti-SST crowd didn’t care about the American SST.
That was not the sound barrier being broken. That was the blackbird going to full afterburner. Truly an awesome thing to experience from the ground.
Sr 72 Darkstar, my dad is flying again
Sr 71 Blackbird, I'm back flying son
Still one of the coolest planes ever created
I used to watch U2 and SR-71s fly out of and into Beale AFB back in the late 70's through the 80s... was always an awesome sight.
Man....this plane its a marvel of engeneering. Its sad now its just a piece of a museum.
Thank You for posting this, what an amazing sight that was.
mate its literally a game
@@Tax-Evasion-As-A-Sport LOL, indeed
I guess I didn't lay on the sarcasm thick enough! 😉
Wow, it's amazing how fast evolution can be. I had no idea there were birds like that!
I watched one of those take off from Kadena airbase in 87. It was impressive seeing all those Mack rings exiting the back end.
I know nowadays a SAM could knock this thing out of the sky but it still would require a specialized missile designed specifically for this aircraft to do so. I really hope the rumors of a successor to the SR-71 are real.
A SAM could have knocked it out of the sky back then.
The only reason they didn’t is because they only overflew tiny developing nations with access to the sea.
Is that Tommy Chong in the background, "It's uh...hittin the atmosphere."
"Filmed with Digital Combat Simulator"? Yea - FO!
Fooled a heap of people though. 😂
That sonic boom to go with the video!
My guess is audio is from a SpaceX booster returning.
@@MeppyMan its just DCS audio.
I swear I remember hearing that exact sound on 9/11 when i was in 6th grade. Grew up down the road from Wright Patt AFB and I thought the bombs were falling
its insane how real this looks
lol i almost thought it was real . but i though that plane retired in the 90s and that footage looked too clear to be from a camera of that era
😆
Oh look it's Spraying Chemtrails...just like Civillian Airliners do...(Sarcasm).
😜
That's not a sonic boom in this video. It's merely a reflection of the fact that the speed of light is way faster than the speed of sound. The aircraft is high and moving fast. You'll see it long before the sound reaches you.
Also, a sonic boom is not a one-time event. An aircraft moving faster than the speed of sound still makes sound. The sound it makes drags behind it in an elongated cone shape, with all of the sound pressure from the first part concentrated on the leading edge. That cone passes over earth like the wake of a boat. When it passes over a listener at a stationery point on earth, it manifests as a sort of seismic event, like a shock wave. I've felt many of them because I grew up near a SAC base.
Sure sounds like a shockwave
it was a simulator
Even if is a sim, sometimes the Blackbird takes flight for some air shows
residues from past space launches are being released from the soil of ASEAN - world spec international types
you tech limited you to the equator which is ASEAN. our tech are not-yours. we can launch from ground at horizon. or float. kekekekeke
we got the kazaks screaming
= we won religious warfare
Pretty nice for a simulator
I heard its sonic boom during the Nicaragua conflict in the early 1980s. Anti aircraft batteries would go off to bring it down with no result. Amazingly wicked plane, fantastic. No other plane comes close.
From California to New York in a little over an hour.
I think is slower than mach 1.Over the barrier you hear a big bang, that doesn't happen in the video.
You can tell that it's U.S. Military.
If it were Chinese they wouldn't feel the need to Rush.
Yes DCS...from a distance you almost can't tell when in today's simulator world.
Damn DCS looks so real
I love your videos!
Can you do the same thing (pov from the ground) with the mfs darkstar?
You guys want to see something more impressive. Drive out to Ellsworth AFB in South Dakota. Watch the B1-Bomber take off at night. You and your kids will both say “holy shit” at the same time. For real. Without pretending.
The TU-160 beats it in every way.
Thats not a jet .. its 3006 bullet with wings on it... ❤
Captured the sonic boom. Priceless.
its dcs
Breaking the Sound barrier, used to be very common near military air bases. Back in the 60's by many kinds of jets. After enough complaints over broken china, they cracked down on it. Get the pun. ? But really, hearing the sound barrier being broken was a weekly occurrence in several bases where my father was stationed. I liked it.
its a simulator
sat in this baby at dayton air force base will never forget
The first time Chuck Yeager broke the sound barrier in the X1 rocket plane people thought he'd bought the farm.
Gotta go fast
It used to routinely fly over Ruston, LA back in the 80's.
yes, nag, we bought composite titanium cookware mr-sr71 yee-eh...
I'm from malaysia but in early 2000s malaysia sky experience loud boom sound on clear sunny day..and the government say it is cause by nature..😂..but i suspect there's someting fly very fast thats break the sound barrier
Im sure that was it
Oh I didn't know that
Imagine being a Russian back then seething that realizing there is nothing you can do
The sonic boom sounds awfully familiar to DCS 🤫
I know an A-12 REO
It had already broken the sound barrier. If the breaking of the sound barrier had been filmed, you would have seen a distinct cone shaped cloud form around the aircraft, intensify then suddenly vanish. The sonic boom heard is the distinctive double thump of the stable shockwaves from the nose and tail of the aircraft during sustained supersonic flight. Zooming in closer at higher res this looks more like a Ghost of Chicken Kiev flight sim render...
Not necessarily true. The vapor cone usually only forms in high moisture-filled airs, whereas the sonic boom is a sudden release of pressure, fiollowed by the double thump as you said. Although it does look simulated and it most likely already broke the sound barrier with how far away the aircraft is.
@@dyno8054this is computer generated. As you say if an aircraft is already travelling faster than sound then the boom follows along behind it.
Pretty sure this audio is a from a recent SpaceX or similar descent.
@@MeppyMan No yeah it's definetely DCS or something of the nature. I was just saying that the vapor cone happens prior to Mach 1 under the right conditions.
As stated in the description, it is DCS. 😅
And yes, a condensation cloud in the form of a cone (also called wilson cloud), is not a clear indicator of Mach 1+, as it happens at transonic speed between Mach 0.8 and 1.2. The reason being, that certain parts of a plane can already have supersonic airflow happening, yet other parts do not and the plane is not yet flying Mach 1. These areas of transonic flow experience a sharp drop in air pressure and a subsequent drop in temperature - if humidity is high enough, moisture condensates and becomes visible.
it crossed the Atlantic back in the early seventies in less than two hours...(!)...
The game "Space Engineers" got this right...
that's not breaking any sound barrier , It takes a few seconds for the sound to reach you from that height, Due to which that sound like blast is heard.
…. What the actual fuck are you talking about?
Imagine seeing that in the 40s
Это он ещё низко летит. Точно не 20 км над землёй.
They flew it right into the sun, I don't think the pilots survived that :(
I like the jet ski level in Crash Bandicoot.
Creaming my pants hearing that sound
Kelly "The Skunk Monk" Johnson
I don’t think this was an SR71, for the simple fact that the SR71 carried a double sonic boom and this one was a single sonic boom.
well this is a video game so it cant be that accurate
What altitude do you think? And how loud? Has anyone any data on the highest altitude sonic booms have on ground decibel levels? Is it much quieter?
Yes, it looks like a lot of water vapor in the atmosphere
its a game lil bro
In American airspace it’s illegal to break the sound barrier and that’s to quiet to be a sonic boom
Incorrect.
its a simulator
@iceman_fox1
(a) No person may operate a civil aircraft in the United States at a true flight Mach number greater than 1 except in compliance with conditions and limitations in an authorization to exceed Mach 1 issued to the operator in accordance with § 91.818.
The Blackbird looks a bit like the plane in Firefox.
The plane in Firefox looks a bit like an SR71.
Fixed it for you. 👍
DCS IS GETTING TOO REAL
Still better than crappy russian planes
I can see it. Stealth dosent work too well.
She was so fast it really didn't need stealth.
not only is it a game but that's not how Stealth works
Beast
la speed check
That definitely is beauty !
Most beautiful machine ever made by man. Imo.
@@Kurt_Philanderer Yours is an honest opinion 👍
its a simulator
@@Tax-Evasion-As-A-Sport Yep
Mind mentioning that its a simulator in the title? Rather than the description?
Fvck's sake.
then incredible talent flying that plane.
does not require incredible talent to play a game
Habu!
The title of the video is not correct - the SR-71 flies at supersonic speed, and does not overcome supersonic. This explosion sound is actually constantly moving behind an airplane flying at supersonic speed.
No cred...blocked
well at the altitude they are flying there would be no trail...
because its not irl
He hit the gas coz he really needed to get back home for a s#it
Tell me you have an EBT card without telling me you have an EBT card….
That's NOT 'high altitude' There are no contrails above about 40,000'. He was probably just cruising along going somewhere at less than 1/4 throttle.
DCS programmers need to adjust the flight characteristics.
Looks like dcs
thanks for sharing!
should've add 'DCS' to the title

To play DCS?

That's fucking motoring bad ass plane😊
its a simulator
Maybe mention that it's not a real video in the title next time?
Could this be probably the sr-72
Ruining away from who? I mean just like Afghanistan and Vietnam - running away 🤣🤣🤣
What's the audio from?
a simulator
68 mins coast to coast. only ufo's can go much faster.
He broke the sound barrier way before he got to you. That "sonic boom" you heard is a constant sound that caught up with you when you heard it. It's not a single boom.
They didn’t seem surprised…
Because they were watching a SpaceX booster return to earth (my best guess). Not looking at this simulated SR-71 video.
I concur. 🍻
I thought that plane had not flown for decades?
Read the description. Good God.
