It’s really awesome to see the heart rate of the pilot within a dogfighting scenario, shows just how athletic an individual has to be to do this profession! Huge respect!
I am a retired respiratory therapist, and the sensors seen here have been in use in health care for decades. It's surprising to me that it has taken this long to apply these things to air combat. Wouldn't surprise me if a lot of aircrews already use cheap, otc pulse oximeters on their own.
This is a good point. Pulse oximeters and heart rate monitors aren’t exactly cutting edge technology. The issue is more the dynamic environment. They’ve tried putting them in the flight gloves, but it’s harder than you might think - hands are sweaty, the monitors move around, the aircrew need to press things, etc. this explains why they are trying to put it in the helmet, which is more stable. Still, helmets move around under g’s too. So if they are getting good results here that’s great and definitely overdue. Reliable Pulse oximetry would be very good to have - not for pulling g’s per se, but to detect hypoxia.
Interestingly, high altitude breathing systems were brought to a high level during WWII. Research conducted by the Army Air Force, via the efforts of one Dr. Forrest M. Bird, helped to develop systems for high altitude aircrews, which resulted in positive pressure systems that made pilot survival and combat function in Korea and beyond possible. Dr. Bird also provided the foundation of the field of Respiratory Therapy. His findings are still applicable today. BTW he was a great guy to speak with on these topics.
@@ryana1787 Spot on. It took us years to figure out algorithms to isolate motion artifact and provide reliable information, even at altitude and under high-G maneuvers.
Private pilots use the finger ox sensor… and have for a long time now…but these are sensing ox levels in the head. High Gs can pull the blood down, giving a good reading in the finger… not so good in the head.
I was a high-G test subject at the centrifuge at Brooks City Base in San Antonio from 2015 to 2020. I was outfitted with a few iterations of this product over my years there to test it at G and performed a synthetic workload. It's neat to see this thing actually in a plane now.
Wow that cockpit footage is unmatched.. audio was amazing, the pilots live commentary made it really immersive. Amazing watching the wings and Amraams flex and shake in high G maneuvers. This has to be the best job in the world. Plus on top of that they are testing new technology and equipment to make future pilots jobs that much safer. Absolutely awesome episode! Thank you for sharing this with us.
It's actually kinda mind blowing that this is JUST NOW getting researched in 2022. Especially since we've been pushing hard g's for over 70 years. A pilot's fitness plays a HUGE part in his ability to push the limits AND stay just as sharp mentally. In that sense they're pro athletes. I just assumed that this bio monitoring was already a part of being a pilot in a fighter jet. It's awesome that it is getting done.... It's just a little weird it hasn't already been sop.
This was fantastic! Loved it! Thank you for sharing with people like me who were wannabe fighter pilots. You can see how important it is to have really good cockpit vision. That bubble canopy offers incredible views.
It’s great to see civilian applications applied commercially and adopted nearly overnite in the military. These types of initiatives will move the military ahead even as hardware and budgets lag. Great video!
Air Force vet and live in Southern Ohio. Have Vipers from the 180th fighter squadron always doing this stuff over my house. I sit outside and enjoy the show anytime I hear them. It's when they do their low level stuff when things get really exciting. Literally carving the hills and you can see the pilot no problem.
Essentially, putting telemetry on the most important piece in the whole C2 picture…. The actual pilot. The festinated expedition of process is actually mind blowing if they can get it through that fast. Very cool.
I guess I just expected that there would be some type of 'Pilot Life Support Monitoring' in modern combat aircraft. As a medic back in the late 1990s early 2000s, we had small, unobtrusive Pulse Oximeters that connected to the fingertip (no good for a combat aviator) and to the ear lobe. Monitoring pulse rate and oxygen saturation is so easy and useful that I really am surprised no one came up with this before
Yeah this video is perplexing to me. Especially with Hasard being such an advanced pilot. It was cool to see, but seemed like a commercial ad for old technology.
This has been in science fiction for 50+ years and in real healthcare for at least a couple decades. I figured it was already incorporated into the military by now. That guy was like a cat playing with his food against him in the defensive, lol. Thanks guys for the video.

You know, the don’t have enough space in the cockpits for those commercially available Health monitoring harware. So the need the slim and tiny tech that does not interfere with other important gear
I have "flown" an F16 in a static simulator with fully accurate flight controls and instruments and I was amazed at how complicated it felt. So, I asked my instructor (a real F16 pilot): How can you possibly fly a plane while pulling high G's and at the same time have full Situation Awareness? He replied with a single word: "Training" That together with thousands of hours of studying makes a select few humans capable of achieving these super-human feats. Hats off to all fighter pilots you guys and girls are one of a kind!!!
I learned to shoot Skeet while I was at Nellis. Shot in the Squadron Intramurals with the Medical Group. Earned a Silver Coin in the Best-Improved Amateur Category. Lost out to an NCO from one of the Maintenance Squadrons, and he had a pump-action shotgun! Wing Commander gave out the awards. I don’t recall ever seeing anyone from the fighter testing squadrons playing with us. They must be that busy, no time to play.
so many resources are spent letting the pilot know the status of the plane, its been way overlooked for too long, letting the plane know the status of the pilot
Great video, awesome to see how physiologic data monitoring in real time can improve safety and improved effectiveness for the pilot. As an anesthesiologist, this was especially interesting for me to watch. Thank you for giving us a behind the scenes look at what you guys/gals deal with up there - you’re all pretty incredible!
That is so cool! We always talk about technology to the airframe, delivery systems and avionics. About time we start monitoring and helping the one at the controls. #SendIt
Thank you for sharing this stunning footage of the dogfight. Realy interesting to see actual data how the manouvers affect a fighter pilots body. It's realy valuable to me to get trustworthy first-hand information. Appreciate your work.
Worked with the 422nd a few times over the years. Always a great outfit and leans forward extremely hard. Amazing group! In this day of RDT&E we need more of this. Great vid Hasard!
I imagine this is something that already happens but it would be cool to see recordings of the experienced pilots in these scenarios like this. Where was he looking, how did he move, what what he thinking ( he would have to say it)? That could be a great teaching tool for less experienced pilots. You can't really know if you are not performing optimally in an aircraft when no one can see how you are doing things.
This video was awesome. I really enjoyed how you were positive even when losing one on the defensive and i could tell you were thinking about what you couldve done better. love to see it
This is really incredible data collection and equipment to help the pilot. As AMXS myself we do everything to ensure acft in best shape possible. Doesn't mean a thing if the pilots aren't taken care of. Makes me wonder if some of this stuff could have changed the incident in 2010 with "Bong". Great video!!
Sometimes the Air Force likes to do acquisitions the hard way… love seeing some of the rest being tested and hope we can start to fix the rest of the process!
Outstanding video. Former Army guy here so this stuff is alien to me but fascinating as all hell. Been going down the Air Force and Navy aviation rabbit hole. Had no clue how physically demanding flying is. What kind of PT do you all do to maximize the proper physical fitness to do this job?
Can you do a video on the helmets the pilots used in this video? Does it share features like the helmets used on the Navy's Super Hornet? For example, the ability to "look and shoot" feature.
Its awesome your videos and your IG. Thanks for sharing and learning. My son love military aircraft he said, he want to be pilot. He have 5 yrs. Thank You Sr🫡 for your services and teaching.
Hasard, the content just keeps getting better and better man this is awesome. Keep up the great work. My boys are flying toy jets around the house after watching this.
Is Combat Edge gone? I didn't see him wearing the vest or the pressure tube to the mask/helmet while doing this testing. I think it made a difference in G-tolerance, especially when fatigue set in. I flew with it for the last 7 or 8 years of my 17 years/2300+ hrs in the jet. My fini flight in the Viper was in Nov 2002 and nothing stays the same. Great video, Hasard.
Cool video. I watched another about mig first ejection seat. Not easy to use including they reckoned being thrust out at 25 g. The instructor said if your still conscious after this point do..... It's come so far tech wise for planes. Amazing. New RAF plane will be interesting to see if tempest works. 6 th generation. Progress never stops .
Wow man what a video you really really kill it. Man I just love to watch and learn more about what are military is doing to stay #1. Man keep on going brother you’re the man.
Hasard, I know this is old, but one interesting thing I saw: at 13:11 notice the trend of his heart rate increasing, even as the max g pulled is lower. Is this an indication of fatigue over a 30 minute period of BFM?
the technology in this is amazing, and it must be so useful, but as a dcs player it's really cool hearing things like talking about the capabilities of the planes in real life which, while not entirely accurate, are pretty well simulated in dcs
Awesome video and many thanks to all those who serve this great country. It was really eye opening to see just how smart and talented our service members are in this high tech evolutionary environment. The dedication of everyone behind these incredible innovations is really inspiring to the future of our warfighters. God Bless, keep up the great work.
Who else predicts that the next generation of fighter jets will be passive engagement rather than relying on the eyes of a pilot to keep the plane alive. I see pilots as the limiting factor. It's still cool as hell though.
To be honest I assumed it was already. I was shocked to see him turning his so much. I figured radar was the main component that kept a lock on nearby aircraft, not visuals. Boy was I wrong lol I guess I watch too many movies
It's cool to see the technology used for monitoring in real time since you don't see the difficulties of flying fighter jets when your watching from the ground
Hasard, thanks for another great video. It's fascinating to see the different ideas and innovations being tested in the AF, you don't really think about or see what goes on behind the scenes to improve the pilot or the aircraft. Liking your F-35 patch too 🤘
It’s really awesome to see the heart rate of the pilot within a dogfighting scenario, shows just how athletic an individual has to be to do this profession! Huge respect!

What were the highest Gs you pulled
@@zmoney412 9 was the highest allowed without special approval. No studies came through that required more during my time there.

Those technologies have existed longer than many respondents here have been alive.
Hasard! Thanks so much for showcasing the importance of some of the ways we are transforming pilot training and performance. Great stuff, as always!
Yyyoooo!!! Such a small world!
I was station with Capt Warden(Flip) at Eielson AFB. Let's go!
Essentially, putting telemetry on the most important piece in the whole C2 picture…. The actual pilot.

It’s great that someone like you can show everyone who dreams of flying these aircraft what goes on in them and how it feels to pilot them

I flew with Flip at Sheppard before he was Flip. Glad to see he's still doing good work in the 422!
Currently in ROTC hoping to become a test pilot down the road! Cool to see some of the things they do.
Chase your dreams buddy, and never give up! ROTC to Test Pilot will come faster than you think!

Spectacular and a nice new point of view. It makes you understand how prepared the pilots must be (in every aspect)
Great usage of multiple camera's, especially the one that keeps the horizon straight and the aircraft moving around it. Nice work folks.

Great vid Hasard!
Great job Hazard! The editing made it really possible to follow the fights and I have never seen a better video on RUclips of BFM.
Great ride along from the pilots view. He walked us through the BFM masterfully! 🤗
