Its so cool seeing 707's with high bypass cfm56's on them, so much more power than the old low bypass screamers they originally had. Those planes must haul butt.
I was stationed at Andersen AFB Guam from August 1973 to November 1974 when it was SAC. B-52/KC-135 main aircraft although C-5s, C-141s and other planes passed through . But the KC-135 was my favorite to see takeoff it was loud but they would really haul ass going down the runway.
Nah, truth is they're carrying tankers of chicken soup aboard; and that stuff only stays liquid for so long at high altitude. (It's a simple question of physics; you can't pump a solid mass of chicken soup down a refueling pipe, to a hungry A10 pilot.) have a nice day
You know those kc 135 tankers are getting it when you see the fog going over the wings they are definitely moving even though I like the old j57 turbojets the most the cfm 56 is a very good engine they are very efficient and got some good power they definitely picked a good engine to power the kc 135
Have all or most of these planes been re-engined? I’m assuming they are based off of the 707 or am I wrong?? I was just watching a video of another one of these planes and the engines were much smaller and narrow or am I wrong about that as well??
Boeing at their best. Solid platform with amazing lifespan. Just great engineering. Current engineers need to look back on the many amazing Boeing production aircraft and recapture that engineering excellence that produced 100 year airframes. It’s not a lack of talent, it’s a lack of leadership.

but the screamers sound so badass :)
Do the new engines still use water injection?
@@artsencraffs3263 no water injection
Its not a a 707. ;) It´s a KC-135. They look similar at first sight but are completely different types.
@@jumpnrun3368 Ohh :p I was slightly confused when the comment talked about 707.
I love seeing the KC 135 take off. The scream went through my ears.
3:40 OH MY GOD FAST TAKEOFF!

Man those fucking things were cooking down the taxiway. I've never seen aircraft of that size taxi that fast. Must have been some emergency drill.

It was, they needed to hurry because their not burning up your tax dollars fast enough on some bs made up war.

Just heard one go over my house at 15k feet at 2am, nearly shook the house and heard it even from 30 miles away.
I love the smell of JP 4 in the morning.
Nice. Thank you for posting.
707s will never get old

Your correct, what you saw was the KC-135E with the old TF33'S. These are R models with F108's.
Cazual Cool. Thank you 😊

It's.. *YOU'RE* as in "you are"
I've been on one in Kuwait. I wore ear plugs during take off.
minimum interval takeoff?
Travis Wong Several minutes at least
No, trust me taxing would be really tight.
I remember that flightline...
I'd love to buy one as a private jet when the military retires them
I was thinking the same thing
Same
que elegancia, tantos aviones de los mismos juntos
Macam mana dan apa ini
Wow whats going on a parade of kc135s
Did they eliminate the water tank, used for water injection?
Replaced with a fuel tank
OH MY GOD THATS A LOT OF KC135 ARMIES!
Sounds like a DC-8-74.
What is a DC-8-74?

When America was great
LOUDER LIKE A BOEING 707.
3 ship mito....really? How about 5 b52's ....5 kc135's....all water wagons... 8 seconds apart....now that was a buttcheeks moment!

Besides rhe BUFF this is a sexy as airplane
Whisper jets!......hoovers with wings

Fog at Kc135’s Air base.
These are the best planes from the USA army
Air Force
@@tslaughter3804 oh yeah thanks
No problem
And what dose the plane do it shots bombs or what?
Alberto Ontiveros Cargo, passenger planes
No this version is the tanker. The KC135 is the tanker and the C135 if the cargo version. Both planes where based on the boeing 707
Used for passenger cargo as well
Nothing, they are just a flying gas station.
@@Levi-qu8yl actually the 707 was based of of these
