CAP: "No one watches videos until the end, especially not Grim Reapers videos" Me watching the entire video on my lunch break :/
Was he able to land? Lol
Bruh same lunch break classic
Same. I take my lunch break in the parking lot, mount my phone in the holder, Bluetooth to the car's audio system and Grim Reaper it until the end of video or end of 30 minute lunch break, whichever comes first. Then finish on afternoon break. Hell of a system for consuming GR content. Last week I did it in -10° F weather, this week it's 65° F. So I am an "all weather" GR fan.
Same here
@@jeremiah1966yes he had an invisible hook lol
My great grandfathers brother was a copilot of one of the aircraft that flew the Doolittle Raid, his name was Jacob Earl Manch (His nickname was "Shorty" because he was 6'7".) We still own the helmet and goggles he wore on the raid, it's super cool to see this piece of history represented!
The official Simba Fan Club always watches videos to the end. Where else can we watch a B21 land on a carrier? Nice job team!
Damn right Simba fan club, best fan club.
Came for the first ever B-21 Raider carrier landing attempt and was not disappointed. GR continues to push/stretch/twist/deform/mutilate the envelope of aviation.
Helluva sight to see ain’t it?
For some jaw dropping aviation crazy: search TH-cam for; C-130 Landing on Aircraft Carrier. Classic 1960's "let's try it!" Enjoy
My Great-Great-Uncle was the engineer-gunner on The Ruptured Duck during the Doolittle raid, and I'm sure he would've definitely felt more safe doing the raid if he had these aircraft to serve on.
The B25s did have their top turret twin M2s, and the bombardier did have a .30, however, they did do away with their rear gunner and his twin M2s to save weight. And they did use painted broomsticks facing aft.
Yes! Doolittle is a legend for providing morale boost in dark times against Japanese aggression!
Or the opposite in Japan in moral terms at least
It would be interesting to see a 2025-2030 Chinese Guam attack with a networked IADS consisting of 2 Arleigh Burkes, 1 Aegis Ashore battery, 2 Patriot Batteries, 1 THAAD Battery and some mixed in Avenger systems vs a bunch of DF-26 missiles and Bomber launched Cruise missiles.
That would be cool to see, but does THAAD have the ability to engage aircraft effectively?
@@josephpenn1115 It's a layered defense THAAD and SM-3 is for anti balistic missile defense while Patriot and SM-6 provide the anti aircraft and cruise missile protection.
@@josephpenn1115 no it’s only for ballistic threats it’s a kinetic kill vehicle that hits warheads in their early terminal phase (Thaad stands for terminal high altitude area defense)
@@dangilbert895 indeed and nasams/ avenger for the close in pucker factor threats lol
@@Utubesuperstar NASAMS would be nice too but I based my idea off the new 500-million-dollar Guam defense improvement plan that's supposed to be in effect by 2026.
“No one watches to the end” “no one likes hour long videos”
Me working in the warehouse: Reenactments on play all as background ALL DAY LONG. Amongst all the other videos.
I just really love hearing the aircraft and comms chatter. And the occasional Cap panic 😂
I reckon one of those missiles hit the bunker greenside of the 15th hole of the Osaka Municipal golfcourse which is right next door to the industrial complex you hit. As Japanese people love their golf- you could really have stirred up a hornet's nest right there!! 😛
Hey, Cap! To answer your question about the purpose of the B-21, it's mainly because of 2 things: good ol' bombing, and range.
First, bombing. The thing is, bombs are much cheaper than pretty much any missile. If you can get an aircraft to within bombing range of a target (ie. stealth), then that negates missiles' range advantage while being cheaper and doing more damage due to numbers and not having engines, fuel, etc. instead using that volume for explosives instead.
Next is the Raider's range. This also answers the question: why not just use F-35s? It's because the B-21 can stay in continental US keeping it safe from everything but ICBMs while on the ground. Fighter aircraft would have to be positioned in-theater where their airbases would be vulnerable to enemy missiles. The Raider won't have this problem while still being able to reach targets anywhere in the world.
The Doolittle raid was amazing. It also stunned the Japanese that America was able to initiate an attack on the Japanese homeland so quickly after the attack on Pearl Harbor.
it took a few months, thats not very quick
It was quick for 1942
@@RoscoeDaMule Bro that was insanely fucking quick for that time, especially after the losses the US Navy suffered at Pearl Harbor. Obviously the carriers escaped harm, but the Japanese assumed that America would be on the defensive for at least a year. The Doolittle Raid, although inflicting negligible to minor damage, absolutely stunned the Japanese military and civilians as they assumed mainland Japan was untouchable.
Nice! A variation, being a 2020/30s "Doolittle Raid" in China, would be awesome to see!
operation chastise 2030. take off from taiwan or japan and blow up the 3 gorges dam.
How to create the B-22 “Beijing Bitch” moniker.
Simba: “Bombers can’t land on carriers with a hook”
B21 AI pilot: “Hold my beer”
😂😂😂
even the hook was stealth
The Doolittle raid as stated was a morale victory but one of the side effects of the raid was that the Japanese Navy and Army Air Force withdrew a lot of warships and aircraft to defend the home islands which diverted assets away from other theatres. So on the flip side it did have a negative effect on the Japanese military... Also do have a look at the proprosed F-22N with the swing wings ala Tomcat... and the A-12 for the naval strike element...
And one more detail: it convinced Japanese high command to give reason for Yamamoto demands for destroying the US carriers, witch led to the battle of Midway, and it also had the effect of a spike on codifying messages traffic in the IJN that helped the American Navy intelligence in Hawaï to break the IJN naval code!
@@Yamato-tp2kf
The raid also delayed the launching of an IJN carrier by six months. That raid, in many ways, was a wake up call to many Japanese commanders; never, ever assume you knew what the Americans were going to do.
American commanders liked to gamble, and it didn't matter if it was dice or poker.
@@seancarroll9849 Oh yeah, I forgot that they hit the dockyards!!! Thank you for remembering me that detail!!!👍
And also, too bad that the US carriers were detected 24 hours before the scheduled take off...
Capt: "no one watches videos untill the end, especially not grim reaper videos"
"You're god damn right"
"warning hot" is basically like the warning on a laser pointer. If you're directly in front of the seeker head, you could be exposed to amounts of radiation that's not healthy, and medical bills that your government doesn't wanna pay for. I was told things like that would give you cancer but I don't know anyone that's actually happened to. Not tryna step on the joke from the video, just thought it was interesting, figured I'd share it
NOW we know why NCIS are after Cap! He revealed the top secret F-22N's existence!
Big like even before watching ,that;s how much I like this. One of the greatest raids ever.
8:27 “why do you need a bomber to get near the target anymore”
The reason is so you can have more precise bombing. The b21 has multiple weapons it can use, including missiles - but if there’s a conflict, it will need to get closer to bomb specific targets that missiles cannot hit.
This will make my Great Uncle Jimmy Doolittle happy
The Raider is basically a flying IOT monster. You can link so many systems to it that the B-21 can manage a whole battlefield. That's just for starters. Imagine this plane *spying* on you at night.
That's what the USAF is claiming makes it a sixth-generation aircraft: drone swarm control. It should be accompanied by loyal wingmen, missile truck drones, SEAD drones, ECM/ECCM drones, recon drones, tanker drones, drones that play "Ride of the Valkyries" through modulated afterburners...
USN F 22 Raptors....NICE landing of the B 21.
"no one watches videos until the end, especially not Grim Reapers videos"
**-AlphaJPM will remember that-**
Cap: "Sorry about the surrounding houses we hit..."
Don't worry about it now. Worry after you get the call to come to The Hague.
I wonder if Cap ever says 'break' when he's having a conversation with Mrs Cap; my guess would be yes.🤣
Great subject matter. My Grandfather was a pilot in WW11 (Great Britain). He got the nickname "Dingy Young" because he usually paddled a Dingy back home after several missions. .He was Hurricane Pilot then got moved to 601 Sqn (maybe ran out of Hurricanes lol).
I always watch to the end. I think the B-25s that survived the raid landed in China (which I think was the plan), which is what I would expect the B-21 to do at this stage of the video (12:15)
Pimp My B-21, brought to you by the Grim Reapers!
Very fun video guys, but now I am selfconscious about watching all of your videos to the end! Wishing you all a fantastic New Year, may you get all the toys you desire with no financial issues, so those of us flying through you can continue to enjoy all the content. Peace.
15 missiles on target.....plus the HOLE IN ONE on the nearby GOLF COURSE 🤣🤣
Umm... Looks like your 'industrial complex' was actually the maintenance shed of a golf course.
😂
*Cap: **_"That's no Raptor...THAT'S NO RAPTOR!"_*
*_"That's no moon, that's a space station."_* 🤭
That was awesome, Cap & crew! One note -- ALCM typically refers to a nuclear cruise missile, while CALCM is used for "Conventional Air Launched Cruise Missle".
Again, great fun looks to be had by all!
That's different from my (dated) knowledge.... We just added a "-N" for the big booming stuff. i.e. TLAM vs TLAM-N. Could also just be branch differences in nomenclature.
@Chris Cannon yeah, could be. I worked on B-52 weapons integration as a USAF civil servant in 2008 -- CALCM was Conventional and ALCM was not...
B21 with a stealth hook. Who knew!
The original Doolittle raid had the B-25s all having to ditch after they dropped their ordnance because although they could launch from a carrier they weren't rigged to recover to a carrier. And they did it all while lugging the weight of their IMMENSE balls
The B-21 has to be the sleekest plane I've ever seen.
Did you know, the B-21 “Raider" was named in honor of the Doolittle raiders.
Thank you..Americans can give love all over the world 🌎
I think you should send the greenkeeper of that golf course a bottle of whisky or something, he's going to have a few divots to repair now.
16:48 Wait...did dude get shot down by a Zero?...in an F22? I know he said he was going guns, but..... That was the funniest sequence I've seen and heard in a LONG time.
If you think that’s bad watch the f22 vs warbirds video lol
They retained their guns on the mission. Remember though those amounted to a pair of .50 cal in the dorsal turret and a single .30 cal in the nose. There were no waist or tail guns on the model they used. The broom sticks were installed in the tail to give the illusion of a tail gunners position. The original belly guns were remotely controlled and didn’t work well enough to hit anything so that gun position was removed period, not just for the Tokyo raid.
You’re one of the few people to get this right. It was the B-25B. It didn’t have a tail gunner. The top turret was mounted aft of the bomb bay to double as a tail gun. However, several of them did use the broom handles painted black to give the illusion of a tail gun.
I wonder if you could do a Lancaster raid on Tirpitz in its Fjord with Tallboys...
That was fun guys... Thanks!
Reminds me of Jane’s Fighters Anthology with game boy graphics. He landed a B-52 on a carrier and we thought it was the most hilarious thing ever.
It should be noted, the B-25s used in the Doolittle Raid didn’t return to the carrier, cause they didn’t have enough fuel to get back. They just kept flying and either landed in - or bailed out over - Chinese territory.
It is the video game/simulator for sure Cap!
I just got my first gaming PC. Cost me a pretty penny. Installed DCS for the first time. It's quite intimidating and I have no idea what I'm doing but I would like to learn
8:16 "why do you need a bomber to even get near the target anymore"
Nuclear deterrent. A bomber can be in the air for a long time at the ready to strike back if needed.
I now feel the need to buy a pub and rename it "The Majestic Sock".
B-21 carrier landing is good incentive to watch to the end 😅
CAP: LOVED this mission!! Food for thought, why not try this later against a Chinese Port near Taiwan? Two Carrier Group position themselves in between Taiwan & China, a flight of B-21's, F-22's (upgraded to 2027 specs with AIM-260 AMRAAM) plus Cannon, tomahawks sent in beforehand to take care of most of the SAM's & deplete their ninbers, enemy is J-15's & J-30's.
Also, I'm still laughing at the landing part of the video, & kept thinking, the Raptors are all crashing...oh god, here comes the B-21 ..... THE RAIDER IS THE ONLY ONE THAT LANDED?!? LMAO tx for this one guys, phenomenal!!
Those jizzum missiles can really penetrate
I watch your videos to the end... Even had to rewind this one because I had to walk away for a couple minutes and missed a bunch! lol
That was simply GR being GR....I completely Loved it beyond comprehension! Unrealistic atm. But freaking fun to watch. Best Vid in a Long while Guys! Well done...
Thumbs up
The B25s launched from the USS Hornet were HEAVILY modified. Its the only way they could get them airborne is such a short distance.
Happy New Year Cap and the guys!! You are the best 👏
LRASM was born out of the JASSM program.
If you think JASSM ER is hot stuff, you should get a load of JASSM XR. The Extreme Range Variant. That thing can deliver a 2,000-pound warhead from over 1,000 miles away.
The next LRASM video should be LRASM vs. the top World War Two battleships like Iowa and the Bismarck.
As Fat Bubba said Cap - we watch to the end 😁
Cap's last words "That's a perfect ending".
Sock's Second-to-Last Words "It wasn't about the bombs. It was about the friends we hade along the way."
Someone needs to get busy and look up the code for the F-22n's landing gear/tailhook...that's some sensitive vector'd thrust...ers.
This is going to be a awesome video.
Such an awesome run!
I have no soul! That was so freaking funny!
Cap sounds like he wants to insert his plane in to the bomb bay of the b21! Hope the maintainers used extra grease!
I watch almost all of your videos to the end.
Be neat to see Final Countdown remade using today's tech. Missles fired prior to being sucked back into the wormhole.
Okay, I never knew I needed to see F22 vs Zeros in my life but evidently I did!!!
I always watch grim reapers videos to the end
One very fortunate result of the Doolittle raid was a notable increase in radio traffic with most of it saying, find that aircraft carrier and sink it. The Americans picked up on it and used all the samples to help figure out how to decode the Japanese naval code. From then on, they could intercept most of the messages.
I watch till the end CAP. Learning for when I get the game. I love flight so dam much.
*Cap: **_"My middle name is 'Ill Advised'."_*
🤭🤭🤭
CAP: "During the actual raid itself, some B-25s encountered light antiaircraft fire & a few enemy fighters (made up of Ki-45's & prototype Ki-61's, the latter being mistaken for BF-109's) over Japan, but no bomber was shot down. Only one B-25 suffered damage in the initial attack run due to AA fire." - Wikipedia
It was really cool to see that giant bird stick that carrier landing perfectly. I don't suppose it has foldable wings to get down the elevator... or lift.
"that was good breaking" 😆😆
Tye B-25 Mitchell bombers on the Dolittle raid were never meant to complete their bombing mission and return to the carrier(s). The bombers were meant to take off at max range and as soon as they got airborne, the carrier group turned around so as to protect the group. The Mitchell's were meant to continue on and land in China. The machine guns they ditched was due to a Jap ship getting a visual on the carrier group. Although the Jap ship was destroyed, there was no promise they didn't relay a warning message. The bombers had to take off early, and the guns were ditched so extra fuel cans could be added to the bombers to try and make it to China mainland.
wake up. see wonky looking B-21 on carrier. I click
For the science I tell you.... the science.
Carrier variant f-22 goes hard
Christmas is a twelve day festival. It is still Christmas.
Lovely video guys. Cheers.
There goes Guam's electricity. haha
Awesome ,as usual.
Battle off Samar with the Imperial Japanese Navy, Yamato, Musashi, et Al. versus the Taffys made up of three modern US light carriers with F35 and escorting destroyers.
Great B21 rendition :)
I always watch your vids to the end, it's what I workout to
B-17C and D models didn't have tail guns, they flew with broom handles to simulate mgs when fighting the Japanese, also early B29s had a 20mm cannon as well as 2 x .50 cals in the til, the 20 mm cannon was removed, some B-29s flew with a broom handle to simulate a 29mm cannon.
The raider is for targets more than 500 miles inland. Deep penetration strikes
I love me some deep penetration
10:48 lol I do...😁✌
Yes!
Cough cough one does watch to the end Capt!
And Screw that particular Golf Course Clubhouse.
I watch them to the end........ Mostly! :)
Break: that was awesome
Super Carrier needs to add a net for emergency landings, then you could land (almost?) anything on it.
We comment early and watch the full vid! Then go, oh CAP answered that 🧐😂😂😂
THE POWER OF B-21 RAIDER, we think 🤔
‘No one watches…….until the end’ ??? WOT ? and miss Simba doing a ‘Simba Thing’ or Violet Moon somehow running out of fuel & weapons BEFORE the enemy is sighted ?
24:00 ... "The Power of the B21 Raider!!!" Against WWII aircraft and defenses.
so a 2030 "Final Destination" follow up. Nice.
G'day Cap and the Reapers, thanks for all your videos and fun. Just wanted to let you know that only you, Cap, can get away with "STUPID" at any time, not just Christmas...
