Much respect to the skill of these fighters in ww2. They didn't have the technology to just lock on to targets like today's fighter jets. They had to practice, and master strategies of getting behind and in front of the enemy by diving down, or pulling up, and diving in again. They were skilled fighters on a level that even today's fighter pilots wouldn't match if they were using the same type of aircraft.
Brits literally had to train to do it in days. My uncle, brother of my grandma, was a Spitfire pilot. Those Men were made of something else, which most are not made from now!
For all those wondering: movie scenes are from "Red Tails" from 2012. It's worth a watch if you have a hangover and need to kill some time. Or if you dont care about inaccuracies.
@@patwiggins6969 it surprisingly fits this video: a song written about the RAF pilots during the Battle of Britain, portrayed by black USAAF pilots escorting USAAF bombers... 💩
I was wondering why "Aces High" rendition has random USAAF planes, when the song is specifically based on the Battle for Britain (and why everything explodes with a single gun hit).
I like to sometimes lay down and imagine a whole movie in my head based on a song. This is the best depiction of what I imagine when listening to Aces High… Amazing work this guy that made the video 👏👏👏 and a lot of respect to the men that fought in that war 🫡
This song gets me absolutely pumped in the morning It's absolutely insane to think about how lethal some of our great grandparents were with a pair of wings wrapped around a gun and then settled down to become quiet farmers. Their generation was no joke!
@@bulgariainsight429In terms of human experience, incorrect. Siege of Stalingrad, was indeed probably the worst human catastrophe, in the history of the human race, but when it gets to this level, there is no difference, in personal experienc. The British and other allied pilots, E.g. Polish and Commonwealth, fighting in this battle,, thought that this was the last chance, for the future of humankind, with any level of decency and particularly, for their generation they thought losing meant certain death. That's the same experience, for all intents and purposes, than Stalingrad population, except that it was much colder in Stalingrad, if yo were still alive, When winter came round As for bravery, Trey Harp is right, not only were fighter pilots, the bravest people in the war, as the technology was still unreliable and had only been around for 30 years, with any Reliability "at all" to speak of, but to make matters even worse, most British pilots had to train "off-the-cuff." because Brits had not been mobilising, for 7 years, Like Germany had..
@@Rowlph8888 "Worst catastrophe in all of human history" really? Worse than the Mongols wiping out whole civilizations? Worse than plague killing half of Europe? Worse than small pox killing 97% of everyone in North and South America? Lots of people like you think "The most recent bad thing" is always thew worst event in history. Stalingrad wasn't even the worst battle in WWII. They were several Eastern Front battles with 1 million + casualties on both sides. I do agree after a certain level you can't really compare suffering. But that is also why Stalingrad can't be the worst. It's just an equal on the list of worsts. I don't think the battle of Britain is on the list. Zero question if I'd rather be in London or Stalingrad or any of the other places. I pick London. "Boo hoo they had rationing and 20k out of 8.6 million people died." Those are pretty good odds.
I love the fact that this song makes you all talk about fighter pilots more than the actual song itself. I think Maiden would love that. Music should inspire thoughts and imagination beyond
Aces High was about the Battle of Britain in 1940, the Red Tails weren't in the European war in Italy until around 1943/44.......lol. Anyone who knows real aviation, will know the CGI makes the planes look like they handle differently......and the only time a P-51D could catch an Me-262 jet was either taking off or landing.
The video wasn't supposed to be based on the battle of Britain. I used red tails because they had good cgi in the movie. I don't care what the song is about actually but to me being an American is about all Ace's and I don't care what anybody says. I take pride making this video but the song is bad ass and my video is with it is bad ass. I appreciate you watching it.
@Steve Broughton, obviously your correct, but the video just goes good with the song. Almost no one truly knows what the song is about, and if they do, they aren't paying attention to the fact that the video isn't the Battle of Britain. they are watching because the video is badass with the song and fits very well.
@@matthewpatterson2497 Thank you very much for you compliments I agree with 110% with you. I made this video to flow with the music. I made it years ago and definitely check out my other music videos. Thank you again Matthew Patterson.
O yeah, and, a P51 could catch an Me-262, if its falling. Theres this cool little thing called terminal velocity., did you see how every time a P51 caught an Me was when it was falling straight down?
My dad flew Spits and then finally P51 Mustangs C's (Rolls-Royce Merlin and no rear window) into Berlin escorting the bombers.....wonder if they ever "crossed sites" on each other? He crashed twice and escaped/jumped the POW train to the camps. A remote farm hid him till health.....only to go back and do it all over. Even up to the 1970's he'd get German shrapnel removed from his legs and underside. A very interesting man and lifetime aviation nut, RIP dad; 1993.

Don't forget Mexico did it's part in WW2, they had the 201st Fighter Squadron "Aztec Eagles", that was attached to the 58th Fighter Group of the USAAF, the 201st was credited with stopping 30,000 Japanese troops in the Philippines and many of the 201st Fighter Squadron lost their lives in battle. But God bless America, England, Mexico and every country for their participation in ridding the world of tyranny.
Слава Русскому оружию, победившему гитлеровскую Германию ценой огромных жертв (27 миллионов погибших русских!)! А США были на вторых ролях - "подай-принеси". США спонсировали приход Гитлера к власти в Германии в 1933 году. Некоторые американские спонсоры Гитлера существуют и сегодня - Ford, GM, IBM, Coca-Cola, Citibank... США долго выбирали, чью сторону им занять. США открыли Второй фронт, когда уже было очевидно, что побеждает Советская Россия. Потери США во Второй Мировой войне составляют 400 тысяч. Это смешно! Только при освобождении Польши от гитлеровских захватчиков, Советская Россия потеряла 600 тысяч русских! А лживые США теперь снимает мультфильмы, переписывает историю и присваивает чужие заслуги.
My favorite part was the Me-262 fights at the end. I understand alot depends on the pilot in the box, but even the more advanced late war Mustang's would have had a hell of time trying to take these early jet fighters down, even with a rookie pilot.
Me 262s were 100mph faster than the P51, had to be attacked on the ground, but for their every 1 we had 10. I’ll take that Merlin over the Junkers any day though.
Plenty of me 262s were shot down or damaged in mid air. Yes they did have a significant speed advantage, but they were very slow to accelerate. And it was even worse when they had to turn.
@@nrdy8221 Sure. Around that time, they started having resource shortages. The allies' strategic bombing Champaign had taken it's toll on Germany's industry. And the fighting had caused them to lose a lot of experienced pilots.
@@aviationlover5503 it definatley is a good motivator, my cesna can handle maybe a quarter of these manuevers, but i always thought of them as the manufactuers opinion excuse the mispelling im drunk as its my dayly ritual and my spellcheck is fucked
One thing I learned recently is, 30mm auto cannon did 1000 times more damage than a 20mm auto cannon. 20mm made at best a fist size hole exploding 0.1 second after contact. 30mm made a hole you could stand in, or at least crouch. Me 262 had a 50mm auto cannon. I'm not certain what size hole they made. I don't think many planes were hit by 50mm and made it back. So not as much documentation.
I once worked with a WWII B17 pilot who flew all his required missions and he never saw one enemy German plane. That was the reality of the German Air Force in 44-45.
Great video, although I doubt Mustangs had that kind of success rate against the 262 in the air. Most 262s were downed as they were landing or already on the ground, not high up in aerial combat.
I read a book a long while ago that states you were more likely to survive the Normandy Beach landing than a full tour in the 8th Air Force. That's some shit.

P51 MUSTANG ANGELS ON OUR SHOULDERS AND CADILLAC OF THE SKIES.👍👍😉👉
Boeing 727 Cadillac of the skys
Pretty sure the spitfires were called the cadillacs of the sky.
(maybe it was both as they had the same engine or engines from the same brand)
@Matthew Lawrence Rolls Royce of the skies? Like literally.
Great Work !
MEU DEUS QUE COISA MAIS LINDA ❤

Aces High …. Load Clear!
MARAVILHA DA RAÇA HUMANA😮😊

Incredible song
Mustangs got the flash, but those bombs at 2:04 won the war
But r.i.p to the good ones😢😢😢😢😢
aces high is about the battle of Britain but it still fits
Never have so many owed so much to so few?
Great video, although I doubt Mustangs had that kind of success rate against the 262 in the air. Most 262s were downed as they were landing or already on the ground, not high up in aerial combat.

Flawless !
WOW! Excellent Video! (♥)

I read a book a long while ago that states you were more likely to survive the Normandy Beach landing than a full tour in the 8th Air Force. That's some shit.
