    It has been pointed out that at 3:37 i mistakenly wrote "f-15 phantom" instead of "f-15 eagle".
    I do not know how i let such an egregious mistake slip by. I will pray on this, and atone.

    we could use an infinite rocket to simulate a second sun, that moves from east to west, so Jake doesn't have to use the moon for navigation anymore.

    I love obscure stupid aerospace facts and this series, so this episode was an instant click for me

    you forgot the nuclear powered rocket that was supposed to power an icbm infinitely. I think it was called project Pluto.

      It’s the nuclear ramjet I believe, and it would’ve been able to circumnavigate the globe while dropping bombs and radiation everywhere since it was open cycle.

    I feel like I should at least once thank you for using Lemmino's Infinity as your outro because it introduced me to the fact that Lemmino makes music and it fucking rules

    i dream of the day metallic hydrogen might be confirmed and made in industrial quantities so we can finally see if there is actually is such a thing as enough thrust.

    I thought tim is the data analyst, he's also an aerospace engineer??

      Jake is the analyst, Tim is the nerd. Actually, they're both nerds.

    Okay, angry plane nerd here.
    Just so you know, the story about the F4 Phantom being garbage max because no gun is kind of bullshit (and not only because the F4 did often carry pod mounted guns). For multiple reasons. The actual story behind why it initially underperformed was a combination of maintenance, training, and - most of all - doctrine.
    First off, early F4's had smoky engines. This made them easy to spot and allowed their enemy to see them coming and warn other forces of their direction, leading to interceptions.
    Second, missile training and maintenance was poor. Very poor. Pilots weren't skilled in using them, and ground crews were shit at fixing and keeping them secure, hence 7% success rate.
    Third, and most importantly, doctrine. For whatever reason, I forget why, the squadron formation of groups of four as opposed to the pairs of wingmen we have now just didn't work. It bogged down communication, and just made pilots uncoordinated. But probably the most damning failure was the banning of beyond visual range strikes. Phantoms could lock on and target from distance, where missiles could maneuver and score a hit properly, but weren't allowed to, which gave MiGs the opportunity to close in and dogfight like they'd been designed. Try using a missile on an enemy already in your face, it just doesn't work.
    Fixing all of this was the actual Top Gun program, along with better ground crew training, which made the initial 1:1 K/D ratio skyrocket in favour of the F4, all the way up to 20:1- which included the Navy variant, which was never given a gun.
    So yeah, missiles rule, guns drool.
