As a southern boy but raised as a military son, I actually never heard the n word until I was around 7 years old, having just returned from 3 years in West Germany. I ended up going to a public school in rural South Carolina where I was the minority. That's where I heard it from other African Americans calling each other this. It's the only time I said it but when my mother heard about it I immediately was made to take a bite out of soap. I also had to write on paper to never say that word again 100 times. This Jesse Brown is to be admired here. He seems to be a man of character and tremendous leadership. I've had several African Americans who have helped me during my life and were over me during my own military career. When someone carries themselves to try to better themselves and trying to help others along the way, the color of there skin should not matter. Character, integrity and reputation are the 3 most important things that all people should strive to be.
I’ve never flown any naval aircraft (except for in flight simulators) but I’ve read enough on what the pilots did and how these planes work to know that flying any plane in a combat zone, especially naval aircraft, is absolutely terrifying. There’s the constant threat of surface to air missiles, (the more rare) anti-aircraft guns, or enemy planes opening fire. There’s also the risk of the accidents that could happen, such as engine failures over the ocean, where sure, you could eject and send an SOS signal out, but without that in World War I, you were basically screwed.
The part about the dawn of the jet age was interesting. A guy was put in command of a jet fighter squadron with one hour of jet flying experience, commanding others who had not seen one up close before. "Here's the book, read it and once you are done go to the aircraft and fly".
I was watching a docu on the Falklands War. One of the Argentinian pilots was talking about launching Exocet missiles against the British ships. The aircraft he was flying was designed only to be a launching platform for the missiles and couldn't dogfight very well. He was a very nice guy but he said his country had spent millions training him as a pilot and it was his duty to fly on missions for his country when the need arose.
Yes they flew the French built aircraft but would only go on one mission and then go into hiding for they were frightened the SAS would hunt them down and kill them
The most honest documentary of the military. A very few assumptions (looking from the U.S. prospective.) This type of honest documentary is what this country needs. These men and women are willing to put their lives in jeopardy for this country
“Finally the british came up with a steam catapult” and of course they forgot to mention that the british also came up with the angled flight deck and the mirror landing system.
I was going to mention that also. To be fair though it may be the way it was edited. Could have been several different takes pieced together. I know that he knows all three were British inventions. Doesn't make sense for him to leave that out.
Baronarx V not the UK mate. Europe would eventually have been consumed by the soviets and the UK would be safe from them for the same reasons they were safe from nazi invasion. The United States would not have had trade with Europe and would not have developed the financial and industrial strength they were able to with a free Western Europe. The uk standing alone for two years was the catalyst that allowed the liberation of Europe. Yes it could not have been done without the United States who entered the war after pearl harbour and the declaration of war on her by nazi Germany. Better late than never.
Landing on a carrier at night . . . trust, faith, precision. Prior training comes to the fore . . . and, all that prior preparation is NOW, put to the test ! 😎🇺🇸
I'm sorry but I don't see the military relying on "faith" for any landing. Precision is a binary concept. It's either your accurate and land, or you missed and, well you know what happens then. The precision mathematics involved do not allow room for faith. In the field there are no A's, B's or C's. You have to be 100% correct. Every time. Period. When you rely on faith for anything, you were not 100% confident about the precision of your mission.
Thank God for the Intelligence, Skill, Dedication, Love of Democracy, Leadership, Morality, and Care for fellow Americans we witness in the Pilots who carry the burden of maintaining freedom for all of US. Thank you and God bless and protect you.
Funny how you start every major conflict in the past 70yrs and declare it as love of democracy, when you have the world highest incarceration rate, highest drug use, highest homeless rates. Putting pilots on a pedestal for acts of murder and cowardice. Did you not see the mother crying over her dead teenage boy... Yeap you got some real heros killing civilians.
Working cv 41 and 61 is in my mind still magical . carriers are or use to be the task Force. we faught and work harder than anybody could ever imagine.
There will come a times when UAV’s are jammed by electronic warfare . If UAV’s come first, be sure the technology to counter them is not far behind . Manned aircraft can fall victim to interceptor aircraft , missiles and anti aircraft fire . Unmanned aircraft can fall victim to the same things , but they can also fall victim to having the electronic umbilical cord that connects them to their controllers , severed - or even hi jacked . I don’t think that the last fighter pilot had already been born.
This concern already had happened when a USAF RQ-170 Sentinel stealth drone fell on victim to Russian-made Iranian Cyber warfare system & heavy GPS spoofing made the UAV to land on enemy air base rather than in home base.
You're right about that. That's one reason why we don't see much footage coming out of Ukraine anymore of TB-2 drone strikes like we did in the first months of the war. The Russian EW/Jamming teams seem to have gotten their act together and are not only causing havoc with UAVs but also with the JDAM bomb kits and GMLRS rockets we've sent over to help the Ukrainians. Finding a way to counter that jamming equipment should be a top priority, not only for Ukraine but also because China tends to reverse engineer and steal everything the Russians make so it's likely they have the same sort of equipment. We wouldn't want to find ourselves in a fight with them over Taiwan only to find out that they're capable of jamming the guidance systems and communications links of our drones and most of our guided weapons.

Especially on patrol during a combat tour. The Captain should have made an inquiry immediately, and that Marine would no longer be a Marine.

Nobody is above Military Code. It's quite evident that this Marine doesn't believe in democracy. Bust his ass out of the military.
I still have to admit I have problems when someone says “1 million tons”. It’s not 1 million pounds, not one million kilos, actually one full ton of TNT scaled up one million times - and that still is not close to the biggest actually deployed nukes (Tsar bomba was even bigger but was proof of concept), that were somewhere between 9 and 25 megatons in use by both the US and the USSR. I still need to stop and think and it still blows my mind.
A top secret A-12 was used to take the first photos of the Cuban missile crisis. But they did not want the capabilities of that plane to be known, so they had the conventional low altitude reconnaissance planes take photos they could use at the UN.
The A-12 was BARELY flying in 1962! The first flight, already months behind schedule, was in April 1962 and that was with standby engines until they could the J58 ready for the test program. They didn't fly operational missions with the A-12 Oxcart until 1967 because the plane had so many bugs to work out. Of course, they used tactical recon planes like the RF-8 (as well as the U-2) to overfly Cuba in 1962 because that was available!
The first time I have ever heard a pilot say... paraphrasing.... fighter jets are absolutely awesome works of art but they are designed for basically one purpose. I don't think I need to elaborate. I honestly dont know how they sleep at night. I can fly the wings off of any jet in DCS World. Loads of fun in that virtual world but doing it for real is something totally different. God bless our pilots and have mercy on their souls. I thought that I would have given anything to be jet jock but now that I am older I dont think I could handle the guilt of the possibility of killing innocent people. Catch 22 if there ever was one.
WTC I hate George Bush with my own eyes I knew what I was witnessing, ex navy I was pissed, I worked in #7 till may that years my company had a new building built in Jersey City when this happened I knew what was up. It changed my life, hasn't changed for me yet. The Navy is the most amazing group of people that when it counts are 1 team no matter what.
Regardless of my feelings on the US military, it has been suffering budgetary cuts since the 1960's. It's a fact. With that, comes the reality of running huge vehicles like the aircraft carrier and its planes (which take millions of dollars and many years of training in order to have good pilots in them), where a plane shot down could potentially mean the death of a pilot who has to be replaced costing millions and years more. That is why UAVs are extremely interesting to the top brass, not merely as a cost-cutting measure.
question for the marine corps folks--at 53.01 when they get their wings, how does a marine officer end up with the anchor towards his spine? the lt to his right has the anchor down. Is there a joke or some tradition that the last guy in the class has to be clowned?
Bill Anders of Apollo 8 tells a similar story of flipping Russian tail gunners off in the Russian Bear aircraft. Ha. It was actually no laughing matter back then. I always say how much I loved growing up in the 60s, and I did. But I was a very lucky little boy with loving caring parents who protected sheltered me from a lot of the realities going on back then which I'll always love them for. Little kids shouldn't be watching all the bad in the world no matter what era. Just my opinion. They need time to grow and develop their young minds. Today with all the easy access internet social media on everything and everywhere you turn parents don't stand a chance and I don't think that's good.
U.S and the U.K. should have a raised communication satelites on all the subs so If communications are down they can still transmit to the air force and navel ships maybe they already do have them
I wish they could figure out something to keep pilots in the air there have been some articles saying that AI wingmen will be there to protect pilots and keep them flying and have them give orders to AI planes.
In the short term, yes. Long-term they will be replaced. Just like in the movie War Games, they want to take the human element out of it...to build perfect killing machines with no conscience or second guessing - just executing orders without failure.
I live in LA, and why that matters is that im a short drive to the Pacific Ocean. I always assume there is a nuclear sub roaming up and down or just sitting in the bottom of the ocean waiting for instructions. So the Cuban missile crisis thing always sounded weird to me. If Cubs let’s nukes be placed on land, why wouldn’t it allow a Soviet sub to just park there. Is it about public perception? False security? Like the guy that drives his charger 120 mph and puts on his seat belt even though the car has only been crash tested to withstand 40mph? Illusion of safety?
I'm sure they would have loved a static set of launchers on the island to allow their subs to continue to be mobile, but for the reasons you just mentioned they packed up and walked away. It wasn't worth a fight to have them there. Plus, it was in retaliation for the US silos we had set up close to them in Europe and they were looking to win a propaganda battle, but that never materialized so they abandoned that effort.
Besides cost and the risk of capture, the second biggest reason they will get rid of pilots is simply optics. Every death is bad politics despite the fact that every one of these pilots would rather risk death to fly these planes and happily than leave it to drones. I find it sad and stupid every time a certain job people dream of doing is eliminated. It probably won’t even save $ in the long run because the cost of building automated fighters will be more than simply keep pilots in them. The only necessary exceptions are for aircraft that a) maneuver in ways the human body cannot handle and b) missions that make the most sense as one-way missions or missions that would almost certainly result in death.

It's pretty depressing All the time, money and blood wasted over the 40 years of the cold war. Did you know, shortly after the October Revolution the Soviets began discussing how to implement communism. Their initial idea was for a 50/50 ownership split between the state and private sector. So, half the output is distributed to everyone, the rest you sell and business must be owned by the all the staff. It wasn't perfect but they thought it was a good enough start (this was Trotsky's idea) Then Stalin seized power through executing and banishing his opponents and just told everyone what they were doing and that they owned nothing. In comes the gulags, genocide and 5 year plans, a dictatorship. It was only with Gorbachev, glasnost and perestroika that they made an attempt at Communism but it was, of course, far too late. The Soviet Union wasn't even meant to last, it was supposed to dissolve as they got to grips with Communism. They weren't even given the opportunity to try and we spent 40 years trying to kill each other. And now the KGB and McMafia run Russia. _slow clap_
@@hr1meg I might agree, but with USAF UPT (a track in which I previously graduated) is exploring flight skills building in a sim before heading out to the flightline, low recruiting numbers and the push to remove pilots from aircraft; it is only a matter of time before the USAF is actively recruiting gamers for UAV piloting roles.
Let's bash the Navy because of social prejudices existing in the past. This video is all over the place with no real point other than letting us know that war is hell and people die, and each one has a family and a story.

This concern already had happened when a USAF RQ-170 Sentinel stealth drone fell on victim to Russian-made Iranian Cyber warfare system & heavy GPS spoofing made the UAV to land on enemy air base rather than in home base.
You're right about that. That's one reason why we don't see much footage coming out of Ukraine anymore of TB-2 drone strikes like we did in the first months of the war. The Russian EW/Jamming teams seem to have gotten their act together and are not only causing havoc with UAVs but also with the JDAM bomb kits and GMLRS rockets we've sent over to help the Ukrainians. Finding a way to counter that jamming equipment should be a top priority, not only for Ukraine but also because China tends to reverse engineer and steal everything the Russians make so it's likely they have the same sort of equipment. We wouldn't want to find ourselves in a fight with them over Taiwan only to find out that they're capable of jamming the guidance systems and communications links of our drones and most of our guided weapons.

A top secret A-12 was used to take the first photos of the Cuban missile crisis. But they did not want the capabilities of that plane to be known, so they had the conventional low altitude reconnaissance planes take photos they could use at the UN.
The A-12 was BARELY flying in 1962! The first flight, already months behind schedule, was in April 1962 and that was with standby engines until they could the J58 ready for the test program.
They didn't fly operational missions with the A-12 Oxcart until 1967 because the plane had so many bugs to work out.
Of course, they used tactical recon planes like the RF-8 (as well as the U-2) to overfly Cuba in 1962 because that was available!
And the young guy who's sitting in a log cabin with the joy stick in his hand is a war criminal. Killing civilians from afar.
"British came up with a steam catapult."
The British _also_ came up with the previous two ideas.
SFWPMU El Centro! I recognized my hangars. Good times, but not really it was so hot
The first time I have ever heard a pilot say... paraphrasing.... fighter jets are absolutely awesome works of art but they are designed for basically one purpose. I don't think I need to elaborate. I honestly dont know how they sleep at night. I can fly the wings off of any jet in DCS World. Loads of fun in that virtual world but doing it for real is something totally different. God bless our pilots and have mercy on their souls. I thought that I would have given anything to be jet jock but now that I am older I dont think I could handle the guilt of the possibility of killing innocent people. Catch 22 if there ever was one.
I agree with taking humans out of cockpits , but not computers when it comes to life and death decisions
God bless America! 🇺🇸Keep the Blue Side Up
*HIGHWAY. TO. THE. DANGERZONE!!*
Radio Dan, good job pick you out by knowing your voice.
Credit Captain Eric "Winkle" Brown RN for teaching all how to land on aircraft carrier with Corsair, Mosquito, Vampire.
WTC I hate George Bush with my own eyes I knew what I was witnessing, ex navy I was pissed, I worked in #7 till may that years my company had a new building built in Jersey City when this happened I knew what was up. It changed my life, hasn't changed for me yet. The Navy is the most amazing group of people that when it counts are 1 team no matter what.
I knew it wasn't the aircraft that brought those buildings down, the very second the south tower fell I knew it was dropped.
The people were suckered into middle east GREED!!! OIL... MAYBE SOMETHING ELSE!!
Regardless of my feelings on the US military, it has been suffering budgetary cuts since the 1960's. It's a fact. With that, comes the reality of running huge vehicles like the aircraft carrier and its planes (which take millions of dollars and many years of training in order to have good pilots in them), where a plane shot down could potentially mean the death of a pilot who has to be replaced costing millions and years more. That is why UAVs are extremely interesting to the top brass, not merely as a cost-cutting measure.
The A4 with the nuclear bomb was a true one-way mission. The nuclear submarine solved the problem.
This alliance is so powerful.. USA and small countries like Denmark (great nation and kingdom) Do not joke with us!
The Americans invented the EMLS Electromagnetic Launch System but then everything was in development in the other years by other countries.
Everybody gangsta until the US Navy shows up
I’m just here to say IYAOYAS!!!!!
question for the marine corps folks--at 53.01 when they get their wings, how does a marine officer end up with the anchor towards his spine? the lt to his right has the anchor down. Is there a joke or some tradition that the last guy in the class has to be clowned?
Bill Anders of Apollo 8 tells a similar story of flipping Russian tail gunners off in the Russian Bear aircraft. Ha. It was actually no laughing matter back then. I always say how much I loved growing up in the 60s, and I did. But I was a very lucky little boy with loving caring parents who protected sheltered me from a lot of the realities going on back then which I'll always love them for. Little kids shouldn't be watching all the bad in the world no matter what era. Just my opinion. They need time to grow and develop their young minds. Today with all the easy access internet social media on everything and everywhere you turn parents don't stand a chance and I don't think that's good.
I hope robots do replace the frontline troops and pilots, but you'll never replace people altogether.
WEAR WARM
U.S and the U.K. should have a raised communication satelites on all the subs so If communications are down they can still transmit to the air force and navel ships maybe they already do have them
Almost done.
I wish they could figure out something to keep pilots in the air there have been some articles saying that AI wingmen will be there to protect pilots and keep them flying and have them give orders to AI planes.
In the short term, yes. Long-term they will be replaced. Just like in the movie War Games, they want to take the human element out of it...to build perfect killing machines with no conscience or second guessing - just executing orders without failure.
I live in LA, and why that matters is that im a short drive to the Pacific Ocean. I always assume there is a nuclear sub roaming up and down or just sitting in the bottom of the ocean waiting for instructions. So the Cuban missile crisis thing always sounded weird to me. If Cubs let’s nukes be placed on land, why wouldn’t it allow a Soviet sub to just park there. Is it about public perception? False security? Like the guy that drives his charger 120 mph and puts on his seat belt even though the car has only been crash tested to withstand 40mph? Illusion of safety?
I'm sure they would have loved a static set of launchers on the island to allow their subs to continue to be mobile, but for the reasons you just mentioned they packed up and walked away. It wasn't worth a fight to have them there. Plus, it was in retaliation for the US silos we had set up close to them in Europe and they were looking to win a propaganda battle, but that never materialized so they abandoned that effort.
Daredevil's and Invisionaries! 😳

Oh. They meant *that* kind of dark.
You racist or sum?
Besides cost and the risk of capture, the second biggest reason they will get rid of pilots is simply optics. Every death is bad politics despite the fact that every one of these pilots would rather risk death to fly these planes and happily than leave it to drones. I find it sad and stupid every time a certain job people dream of doing is eliminated. It probably won’t even save $ in the long run because the cost of building automated fighters will be more than simply keep pilots in them. The only necessary exceptions are for aircraft that a) maneuver in ways the human body cannot handle and b) missions that make the most sense as one-way missions or missions that would almost certainly result in death.
Correction in the narrative stating that carriers have maintained a continuous presence in the indian Ocean/Persian Gulf region since 2003, try November, 1979.
I miss dad but petchi my Tommie Cat be home Monday she had to go to hospital 🏥 😪 I hope and prey to her she will be safe and have mercy on her huntress painfull cry for nature
And would silly human is do the wrong thing because we are not hunters or police or sharp shooting Rangers or GI's hunting for criminals etc 🤔
I thank rspca for looking after them and my personal vendetta to the wild life 😜 if I had money I would give as much as I could for them and I will be good for them to find them safety a far away from our dangerouse cities and people whom think it's ok to kill them for hobbies unexceptional hunting with weapons is not natural to them
Maybe jess temprerure ambient temp and pressure in cotpit
NO HIGH HILL SHOE , NO HARD SHOE
speaking of marine nuclear propulsion in large surface combatants such as aircraft carriers . . . next generation future 83,000 ton CATOBAR aircraft carriers will be powered by cutting edge bio fuel cell tech & Li-ion i-MARINEHYBRId® marine propulsion at less than half the price of marine reactors . . .
It's pretty depressing
All the time, money and blood wasted over the 40 years of the cold war.
Did you know, shortly after the October Revolution the Soviets began discussing how to implement communism.
Their initial idea was for a 50/50 ownership split between the state and private sector.
So, half the output is distributed to everyone, the rest you sell and business must be owned by the all the staff.
It wasn't perfect but they thought it was a good enough start (this was Trotsky's idea)
Then Stalin seized power through executing and banishing his opponents and just told everyone what they were doing and that they owned nothing.
In comes the gulags, genocide and 5 year plans, a dictatorship.
It was only with Gorbachev, glasnost and perestroika that they made an attempt at Communism but it was, of course, far too late.
The Soviet Union wasn't even meant to last, it was supposed to dissolve as they got to grips with Communism.
They weren't even given the opportunity to try and we spent 40 years trying to kill each other.
And now the KGB and McMafia run Russia.
_slow clap_
Dark history ? what does that mean exactly.
Means it a dark part of history
Killing of civilians from the air. Brave men not.
@@master_shifu4208 It's a proud history
@@oldhick9047 uh not really? A shit ton of peopie died, thats called a dark part of history

It's terrifying to think of gamers flying UAVs.
Amanda They arent. Thats why they are gamers and not UAV pilots.
@@hr1meg I might agree, but with USAF UPT (a track in which I previously graduated) is exploring flight skills building in a sim before heading out to the flightline, low recruiting numbers and the push to remove pilots from aircraft; it is only a matter of time before the USAF is actively recruiting gamers for UAV piloting roles.

Awesome share team. Godspeed and heaven spoke. NAVAL AIR DEFENSE FORCES make. Evildoers TOAST !!!
for all black people,you are not afro americans...you are the real americans just like the other citizens who live in usa
Let's bash the Navy because of social prejudices existing in the past. This video is all over the place with no real point other than letting us know that war is hell and people die, and each one has a family and a story.
The Dark history of Naval Warfare....... Because normally there is a bright history to warfare ?

17:00 this is not a good rendition of American Military professionalism.
I tip my hat to Mr. Brown this is the America I love , black , white , Jews , Catholics and , gentiles ALL AMERICAN if your for god and country that’s all that matters
Is not your fault fella orders off command are ones duty but more than ones actions SIRr
Was us Bits that came up with angled flight deck and the mirror landing site, not only the steam catapult. We still doing it with the ski jump and double island on the HMS Queen Elizabeth, that other navy's seem to want to copy.
CC: And it has been 45 years since the British had a real carrier!
@Brian Roome well ur nice
@Brian Roome I come up with facts u give abuse shows u jelouse of us brits lol
29min sounds like now.
Spark goes woke..
lol what was woke about this? youre afraid of the truth?
Don’t get over confidence
Why completely ignore the US missiles in Turkey during the Cuban Missile Crisis?
If they got one guy they could have said them both.
Yeah, Navy is a lot cooler than Air force.
