- Опубликовано: 14 дек 2020
- The Boeing E-4 Advanced Airborne Command Post (AACP), the current "Nightwatch" aircraft, is a strategic command and control military aircraft operated by the United States Air Force (USAF). The E-4 series are specially modified from the Boeing 747-200B for the National Emergency Airborne Command Post (NEACP) program.
The E-4 serves as a survivable mobile command post for the National Command Authority, namely the President of the United States, the Secretary of Defense, and successors. The four E-4Bs are operated by the 1st Airborne Command and Control Squadron of the 595th Command and Control Group located at Offutt Air Force Base, near Omaha, Nebraska. An E-4B when in action is denoted a "National Airborne Operations Center".

Just the fact they're showing this tells me they have something newer and better in the air already.
Yup
I like your rationalization 🙊🙉🙈😀
Sir, I think you must be absolutely right about that. Same thing with the blackbirds, would be my guess.
Nope. By design, it looks old, but that is intentional - it has to survive an EMP/HEMP blast of at least 100,000v/M. More old school knobs and switches won't burn during an EMP, while micro-electronic switches will (I'm guessing, but probably any wire will burn over 22 AWG).
Well it’s just landed at mildenhall England
My first adult job was working as an assembler installer at e-systems in Greenville TX. I worked on tables and equipment racks that went into the E-4B.
Me too!!!...I worked there in the late 80s and early 90s as a Systems Mechanic but I started where you were at under Juan Avalos and moved outside. Wow!
Cool
It is a old aircraft but she’s a beauty
It may be old but still very capable. Wish I was.
Fairly, that's funny! It's about the exact opposite to very.
How interesting is this video and the timing of it must tell you something hope it’s good
Oh NO..... Like ALL fighter jets...... when they’re up in the air, something is down to NO good.
$223 million sounds like a bargain compared with today's market
Haha yeah do true it's like change in their pockets ffs haha
I love trump. Hope he come bk with a new party the .pls party and trump to support us as the main head of the party
We need good men and women behind him with the real ppl who voted 4 him also . Ireland loves trump ☘💚☘💚☘💚☘💚☘💚☘💚☘💚

Yeah that price sounds low but that's probably 1974 dollars.
@@jimbob7218 no just for 75million Americans and god knows what the rest of the world thinks of you voting for a fraudster, who needs an earpiece to answer questions and speak! He's a puppet president, with questionable morals towards sexuality of a deviant kind. All fact found evidence, need I mention 3 different democrats laptops? 1 Clinton, 2 Biden's!!! Shame on you all
I remember when I lived in Omaha 88-89, 2 of my buddy's were based there and was part of the crew. They were 2 weeks on call at the base and when the scramble they had 8 minutes to be airborne. They always had 1 engine running at all times 24hrs a day so if they got the alert they could be airborne.
The one engine running things sounds like BS. Sorry
@@leftR-tardation
: that could well be the rear (5th) turbine engine in the tail. The APU.
@@leftR-tardationactually there is another video about it 24/7 running engine in case of something happening and protect the president right away.

I got to fly on a training mission on the original E-4B from Offutt back in Oct 81. I was a young Airborne Command Post Communication Repairman Specialist troop at the time.

The flying Pentagon. They should snag up 6 more 747-8 fuselages while they’re replacing Air Force one and upgrade all at the same time to save a bundle of money.
Then, switch to Geico!
The flying command center is flying 24/7 and can fight America´s war anywhere in the world.... Can fly for 30 days straight with refueling of course...Amazing aircraft with so many safety features inside with the president ruling....amazing A/C and the most maintained in the whole world.
The things I saw taxiing around, taking off, and landing at Edwards as a flight test engineer (engine supplier rep) with BOEING flight test programs on several programs was pretty cool. RTO tests were so interesting
Things were 'cool' and 'interesting'. Most generic comment ever.

Coincidence that this was posted three weeks ago? I think not.
I think not either. As of a couple of days ago or so, or today, our President was at Dyes! Check out MonkeyWerx on RUclips
Thinking the same thing!
Quit wondering.
A reload of the report? Hmm!
@@sallyhover8173 MonkeyWerx is excellent , his today video shows a lot of new stuff heppening . I Love his knowledge and intuitive guesses .
I took notes! Great info thank Scott & Derek!
When I was in the USAF, Strategic Air Command from 1969 to 1973, mostly
at 509th Bomb Wing, Pease, AFB, Portsmouth, NH, we had the FB-111's
come in to be stationed at that base.
The Wing Commander flew by with the
afterburner on, and in the hardened
hanger, I was able to have a look into
the cockpit. "Peace is our Profession,"
"To err is human, To forgive is Devine,
neither of which is an acceptable SAC
standard". As a Captain, I was the 509th
Combat Support Squadron Section Commander.
You were stationed at Pease?? My grandfather was also in the Air Force, &was stationed at Pease as well. He served in Korea&Vietnam, then after his retirement, worked for the DoD at Portsmouth Naval Shipyard for over 20 years before retiring. He lived the rest of his days in Portsmouth, NH until he passed in March of 2019. His name was Thomas Owens Sr. Maybe you might've known him? I still live in New Hampshire myself, along with some of his grandchildren, great-grandchildren, 2 of his sons(1 being my father), &1 of his daughters. For the most part we're all near the seacoast, then the rest of the family is scattered across the country.
they need a fleet of 5 brand new B747-8I based E-4C!!!
I’m sure they will after the 2 new AF1 r delivery in 2024
They need to pay off there debt !!!

Got to work across the street from these birds for 5 years. We were a comsec unit and had a briefing in their building. Remember the signs on the doors.
Electrical bond, every part must have minimum resistance part to part to prevent hot spots when subjected to electromagnetic pulse.
The USA is usually a 'couple of steps' ahead of the enemies: ...whenever you see us 'displaying' and talking about things like these, know for sure that we 'already' have 'something much better', which will also be talked about much later when we again have 'something' much better! - that's one of the primary reasons why the enemies are 'always' playing to 'catch up'!
It can survive a nuclear blast but a little old tornado takes it out 😁. I suppose its more about the Electronics being immune to EMP.
ironic part is that the tornado pearl harbored them all because they were all in the same spot but one lol
Have you ever been in a tornado? Especially the mega ones of late?
@@eyotachenoa3132 Tornadoes are no joke. Probably not a good idea to leave our $223 million plane in its path, lol
@@eyotachenoa3132 or build a tornado hanger for them
This plane has been airborne a lot lately.
That’s a GOOD thing considering there’s A LOT of THREATS around the world..... WE NEED to save our own threats from our own country due to riots & protesting.
There is one airborne at all times 24/7 (there are 4 of them)
@@jwilly5870 one identified as almost landing in Oklahoma at Will Rogers Airport yesterday. Think it was Channel 4 news. Video on RUclips. Seems they would of chosen the Airbase instead. Odd.
Love ur videos where do u get them :)
Seen this beauty landing at Frankfurt Airport a few times!
Now THAT.... That’s BEAUTIFUL.... DEADLY but BEAUTIFUL.
How come the computer voices always sound creepy?
What is the opening on the top for? Air to air personnel transfer?
Makes me look forward to the coming 747-800 Air Force One. It is wise that we have these hardened 747-200's though. They work.
I don't. No refueling option. I don't like removing options that might be vitally necessary.
I love that plane I build the wing to body parts. Now I love to see it fly. I like to see 747 new tanker
I remember seeing one of these Aircraft at a Airshow in the 90's (Flyover)
Trump has been in one since the SHTF at the capital. It's fixing to get really interesting in the upcoming week.
N how would you know this
@K B They could easily have 2 or more months of food, especially LRPs
No he has not. Source: I know.
🤣
I'm thinking not.
I drove a "gremlin X" once. This thing only has a couple more gauges and switches. I'm sure I could handle it!! I have several hours of flying experience. Every time I screwed up and my Dad kicked me into orbit!!! Lol. .... Beautiful machine.
What a machine!!
A bit perplexed as to why they would show all of this to our potential enemies...
The Clintons and Hussein gave the CCP all our military secrets.
They have always done this. Used to be in magazines. It's propaganda for public only.
My guess is this is old news. They probably have something more updated.
Like a rocket engines attached to the Washington Monument 🤪.
Lmao u r their enemies
And they it’s currently in the air for operations. Great.
Bruhhhh
Just saw it leave Davis-Monthan Air Force Base 6pm headed towards DC direction
This plane will survive a nuclear blast, but not a Gremlin from the Twilight Zone at 20,000 feet.
It's a wonder that it can get off the ground, much less carry a full load of staff and passengers.
the Sum of all fears.
One would think this kind of information would be top secret.
I see these planes at Dyess every once and a while.
Where is dyes?
@@studinthemaking Texas
What a time to be alive and to be an American.
Literally just flew over my house in Columbus Ohio was watching flight radar and I seem it. Very cool
GREAT👏👍
Amazing aircraft 🇺🇸
This was in the air yesterday
I hope the President has the wisdom and courage he claims others lacked.
The guy who wears two masks ?
Zhou Bai Den:Who?Me?
Neat
Leaves me with the question "is there ever going to be a doomsday?"
the commercial B747 price is 240 mill., and de E-4B specially equipped is cipper?
That thing looks like it can travel thru time.
🕰 ⏰ ⏳
I was on flight radar 24 and saw this plane in air
here is the decoy! Does it comply the requeriments to ward off an Antartic 1940 fight Admiral Byrd style?
My favorite part was seeing a wire taped to the wall.
that's for FM Radio....
Just saw this bad boy over Tucson
One question: Why no landing gear on thumbnail?
I think the military and technological prowess of the United States is so excellent that it cannot be evaluated.
A storm damaged three of the four E4-Bs because the forth was away for repairs. Maybe that tells us that they shouldn't all be kept together in hurricane alley.
They don’t have hurricane in Nebraska.
@@paulflores9909 right. Tornadoes!
Ah, yes. It was a tornado that damaged 3 of the 4 E4Bs. Whatever. It's still a bad idea to keep them all together in the same place.
@@ciabhannahbaic670 true. That's a lot of $ to be all together in one place!
Justin the military remember Pearl harbor all the ships together why would these planes be together? Duh! And I'm just a dumb girl
I gots to get me one these😍
5:47 $223 million dollar plane. Painters tape to secure wires.
What good is it to have an office in the air when everything on the ground is all fuctup?
Too Ruin Someones Day
That's what it's for
In the Event Washington becomes a smoking hole the E4 becomes the pentagon and has secure communications to all aircraft and ships at sea along with the missile silos. It’s the answer to a surprise attack on the US.
@@chrissmith7669 You’re assuming that the system is still intact. Command & Communications, the first to go.
@@jimburns348 as long as there is someone to talk to their ultra low frequency radios will work. The only way to shut them down is going to be a high altitude EMP that ionizes the entire atmosphere. Then we’re back to banging rocks together in short order
Also this video showed how this plane gonna take off (like normal planes)
Probably interesting info, but I cut out early because of the ridiculous computer generated voice.
..Sounds like a person to me.
They're getting much better than they used to be.
One showed up at the cotton fields full flaps and slow speed where I was flying a 5 d booster rocket e second stage.
Supposedly, this is what uses in lieu of the air force one
“Seven hundred and forty seven minus two hundred”
That only costs 100 times more than our small town's useless fire station that houses 4 trucks and never has any runs. It costs just about as much as a 250 bed hospital that was constructed one town over. it costs 4 times as much as our new elementary school.(65 million for an elementary school).
Wow.
Why is there 1 extra engine
thank god
So why is this information made public?
Question. In the event of a full nuclear war where will it land?
We getting there
So with all the high tech and super brains involved. Nobody had the forethought to fly the two aircraft of base away from the tornado??? That says a lot.
Im in danger if i see this flying
This wasa old news before this video was ever made. They just never let us see in it before a couple of years ago. They have better things today I'm sure including some kind of attack capability if needed.
@ 3:54 The Co-pilot in the right pilot seat...look quickly...who do you see...? Sorry....but he looks like Gomer Pyle......! =)
This one just arrived in my country (Philippines)
Though a nuclear blast within what ? 3 miles of it or less ( can’t see it surviving that and remaining airborne) ??
move them aircraft too low tornado zone ?
Any m1a3 abrams
I was assigned to this plane.
Ngl I genuinely thought it would be more than just 223 million
Look! An airborne Titanic!
The narration stated that it's a Doomsday Plane... and also stated that moving a plane out of the way of a tornado takes too much time and planning which is why they were damaged by a tornado. It makes no sense that the excuse is too much time & planning to move.
Are they on board? And it in the air? All your electronic baffles and defenses on, totally alert and checked for stow always? Ok.. here ya go.
Text to speach has gotten a lot better but it still just sounds ridiculous sometimes “...boeing seven hundred and forty seven to two hundred”
Anyone noticed that this plane has no windows?
It did the 911 morning command center thing
I'm in no way knocking it's superior capabilities of withstanding EMP weapons.. It's concerning that a little EF-1 Tornado took our Doomsday Plane out of commission for three months.. What happens if it's a nuclear fallout blast of 200mph winds or higher? It might not be a bad idea to keep the same technologies, but do a redesign of the craft itself, maybe something that's lower to the ground, and maybe that is more stealth in design, and when parked on the ground can retract it's wheels, so is set firmly on the ground..
Let that EF-1 Tornado be a learning experience on what needs to be improved, and not just a bad experience..
Thanks for your hard work and keeping America safe.
I'm concerned that these things aren't moved out of the path of tornado-spawing storms well in advance! Left a critical hole in our readiness!
"Nuclear fallout blast"
No offense but I don't think you know what any of these words mean based on the way you're using them.
Nothing that can fly can be made to survive a blast overpressure in excess of a couple psi, it's simply impossible. There's a reason why we operate more than one of these.
@@slightlyirradiatedmuffin3257 That's all true .. but it seems stupid to leave the thing subject to tornado damage instead of just building a hanger that can protect it.
@@THE-X-Force Because there are several of them, 4 to be exact. If one gets destroyed, it'd be a hellish cost and unfortunate scenario but nothing that would threaten national security.
@@slightlyirradiatedmuffin3257 That does not change the fact that $8 million dollars in repairs had to be made to one of the aircraft for damage that it sustained which could have been prevented if it were in a hanger.
They _did_ spend that money on those repairs, and those repairs could have been avoided by putting it in a hanger.
I don't get what your point is. It's not like if, given the option, they wouldn't put the thing in a hanger. They simply just don't have one there large enough to hold it. So .. build one.
I'm not talking about national security, and I never mentioned or implied that. I'm talking about basic common sense and fiscal responsibility.
No doubt, this plan has been in the works by MILINT since at least 1990.
it can re-fuel in the Air, but can also re-stock foodstuff in the Air, if not its not invincible, you can't
fight a war without food.
@R Tee : Uber Eats and DoorDash can probably deliver. Maybe even Domino's (though the 30 minute goal may have to be ignored).
Please let me ask why Boeing company made E-4 gain its title?
I'm thankful for a POTUS that cares about our Military!
Is it the same POTUS that dodged the draft five times?
And a military, for the most part, has his 6.
@@peterpluim7912 , we all had that option. We chose not to have ours reduced until the end of the year.

@ Bruce Harper,
Really?! I didn't know Biden was a draft dodger?! I knew he was a old codger!! Now I have no doubt about Oblama being a draft dodger!! I already heard often enough, about him. He likes to live in "the land of make believe"; that he gets to run the U.S.A. through other people, for 20 or more years. Some one needs to break it to him, that Fred Rogers passed away!! And so has him being President anymore!! Thank The Only One True God, for that!! 🇺🇸💙❤️
