i mean… there are some jets that go at mach 3 thats 3 times the speed of sound edit: i didnt know much of this stuff haha thanks for the knowledge guys also never knew this blew up
I was in the Navy. Most pilots are confident, but not cocky. And it's always nice to see one own someone who thinks they're being cocky. lol. I miss seeing the blue Angels practice every week. 😥
Those guys are as good as race engineers. The test pilots especially - they're seriously trained, both flying and engineering. If they are asked to climb to 20056 ft, they will place the jet exactly at 20056 feet, at the target speed. Those airshows you see are performed by the very best pilots. They are as skilled with their planes as F1 drivers keeping the car inches off the walls are with their cars
I’m sure that was probably filmed after the race too or at least after they tried this several times and tried to figure out which route would make the race the closest. It’s tv, everything is planned out, that’s why the pilot said the 3rd turn was too tight even though it was just as tight as the 1st turn.
James Edward It might of been filmed after but I doubt they ran it a few times, that would be expensive, especially for the jet. They have mathematicians who can calculate with the techinicians/engineers of Mclaren and the jet to find out how they can make it close
I love that the pilot pulled 7g turns, and gunned the afterburners on the last straight just for this win. Imagine how he'd have been roasted by other fighter pilots if he lost, they'd change his callsign to 'slowpoke'. My man's whole rep was on the line
This was one of the best things I've ever seen here on TH-cam. The pilot's humbleness and then the car driver saying those words in the end about losing to that jet plane pretty much summed it all. I salute you both, thank you.

Jim Bob would you like someone playing with you more expensive toy that you have less of and are extremely expensive to repair and operate? No, if something happened to the typhoon they can fix that, if something happens to the lightning it’ll be three times the price. Basic analytics dumbass
Jim Bob Not to sound pretentious, but there's actually a legitimate reason. The F-35 is coated in radar absorbant material (RAM). This material is EXTREMELY expensive, and any scuffs or blemishes in it will affect the stealth capabilities of the jet. If someone were to stand on the wing of an F-35 and damage any portion of the RAM, they'd have to take the jet into the maintenance area, strip off all the surrounding material, and re-apply a new coating. So no, it's not for show. The Lightning II is so expensive and complex that they cannot risk the liability of damaging that material.

It's not just any random pilot. It's an F35 jetfighter pilot. Of course he can predict his trajectory quite accurately. Like Alexander said, that's what they are trained for.
Mad respect to the pilot. Being an aviation student, I cannot even explain how difficult it is to pull off those low altitudes high risk maneuvers. The G forces that guy must have been facing are off the charts. Thank you top gear by the way.
Well not exactly "off the charts". The pilot even explained it himself, the turns he performed were all 7g which happens to be the max load an f35-b is certified for. 7g is also less than the max load of an f35-A and the typhoon which can both go up to 9g.
Not massively difficult in his case, 6-7 years worth of FJ specific training and spun in a centrifuge at 9G sustained over a long period of time, he's very used to pulling at least 7G. Still impressive to watch though.
@@johnbolt532 its full carbon fiber (if i remember correctly) but mostly its so expensive because its exclusively made for your head and allows you to see straight trough the aircraft by cameras outside the plane and with nightvision etc. It also shows all the information you need inside the helmet.
Are we just going to ignore the fact that the pilot calculated everything to the finest details and even pointed out the car's positioning when he crosses the finishing line...
Fighter pilots are required to perform complicated decisions and computations every time they fly, so that's just a child's play for him if we're considering what he really is capable of
Imagine if the pilot is doing a strike/bombing mission. The pilot needs to quick and precisely calculate at what speed and at what height and at what time he needs to drop the bomb... All of that is to make sure it strikes exactly at target dude's home and not his neighbors here and there.
The acceleration, take off and the maneuvering of the F-35 was literally the most beautiful thing I've ever seen out of a machine... Fyi, I'm not even a plane geek lol
Im really thinking about did he really made it up in his mind or was there a calculation. Im sure a pilot of that caliber can calculate how the outcome will be, its all math
@@efonwang honestly that's very possible and I considered that before commenting, just thought it would be unreasonable for me to assume that, and if they did, who cares, nobody really knows unless we were there
I mean, it is. The F-22 is almost 15 years older, and only really capable of Air to Air, and pre planned Air-to-ground engagements. The F-35 on the other hand has a much more advanced avionics-suite, better targeting sensors, and a wider mission capability, meaning it can do various different missions. The F-35 really is being hated for no real reason other than "oh its so expensive and unsafe", but that really only applies to the F-35B due to its VTOL system. The F-35A and F-35C, are actually pretty good, capable, and cheaper than the B.
Do you really think, the military goes into a "fight" without gathering intelligence about their enemy? I am sure that they knew the exact specs of the car such as straight line speed, cornering speed, drag coeficient and so on. They calculated that race in advance then briefed the pilot.
That's what pilots do you know... I am surprised how few people in the comment sections seem to be aware that, unlike those car fanatics from the tv show, being an actual jetfighter pilot is all about math. He knew exactly what is going to happen.
How did anyone knew that this comment was gonna be in the comment section. I was looking to be disappointed. Nope... Typical. Follow the trend I guess.
That pilot gives the best of how precision can be with handling smooth powerful flying beast and that McLaren shows how state of the art can be an automotive company and how passion runs with engineering. Thank you top gear thank you BBC. And the whole team.
That was insane, I agree! He was looking in his rear-view mirror and I was a bit curious to see if he was having to brake ahead of the corner in order to let the jet fly past before taking a left and crossing paths. It would have been an expensive episode to make :).
Lol yepp! Chris Harris has been exremely lucky with his job, of course hes a brilliant motor journalist and Im a huge fan, but I gotta say, that young fighter pilot in this video, he jas clearly done the right choices in life! Ennnnvyyyyyy😭😭😭
Every time I see this, it's so amazing. I can't imagine how much of a logistical nightmare it was to set all this up, from approving it, to the cost for maintenance before and after just to do a little demo.
its a daily occurrence for the maintenance crew, drop in the bucket Ive actually done a very similar thing, Im avionics for the U-2S and the landing gear is so shit that a pilot literally has to chase the jet when it lands with a supercharged dodge and radios the flying pilot to tell them how far off the ground they are. Its called a chase car. But we're only going about 140 mph
@@ASbored He forgot to add that the U2-S only has two wheels, one in the front and one in the back, it's also meant for VERY high altitude operations, so it works less efficiently at lower
They fly them all the time for test flights, training, and actual missions no less so a demo is no big deal. And "logistical nightmare"??? You think they just have all the planes sitting around in hangers 24/7 with no plans or intentions of ever using them?

The acceleration, take off and the maneuvering of the F-35 was literally the most beautiful thing I've ever seen out of a machine... Fyi, I'm not even a plane geek lol

@@sqlevolicious We’re going to be skeletons by that point. Until then, we gotta use mods or the F15. Sad times

@@sqlevolicious msf2020 seriously?? DCS.
The F-35's top speed is 1.6 march or 1900 km/h, the McLaren Speedtail's speed is 391 km/h.
It's more like 1700 km/h since its Mach 1.6 top speed is at high altitude where the speed of sound is somewhat lower that at sea level.
Yes, so I don't understand why topgear want to challenge F35 using a hypercar...they are uncomparable😂
Simple if you live in a place where roads are more curvy then buy mclaren
else go for f-35
xD lmao 🤣🤣🤣🤣
It wasn't fair anyway. If the F-35 would work as advertised, it would be much more than 1.4 seconds between the jet and the beauty.
Yeah honestly getting to work in my f-35 is kinda hard but it’s definitely worth the buy for a daily commuter
Imagine if the f35 went for a full speed run
McLaren as the beater commuter car, F35 to pull up on the ladies at the local retirement home :D
I love how spot on the Pilot was about what the outcome would be.
Im really thinking about did he really made it up in his mind or was there a calculation. Im sure a pilot of that caliber can calculate how the outcome will be, its all math
Maybe they filmed the planning after the actual race?
Having been a pilot yeah it was probably calculated, we calculate most of what our flight will be from take off to landing.
@@efonwang honestly that's very possible and I considered that before commenting, just thought it would be unreasonable for me to assume that, and if they did, who cares, nobody really knows unless we were there
200miles is like walking to them hahaha
Love how the pilot describes what he's gonna do: "roll out" ; "limiter pull" etc 😂
Yeah and even describes where the car will be when he will cross the finish line, correctly.
@@harbirsingh7266 he reminds me of James May.

@@shooteroffuture only A version have 9g because B and C version doesn't really need that much
"Most sophisticated fighter jet the world has ever seen"
F-22:"Laughs!!!"
I mean, it is. The F-22 is almost 15 years older, and only really capable of Air to Air, and pre planned Air-to-ground engagements. The F-35 on the other hand has a much more advanced avionics-suite, better targeting sensors, and a wider mission capability, meaning it can do various different missions. The F-35 really is being hated for no real reason other than "oh its so expensive and unsafe", but that really only applies to the F-35B due to its VTOL system.
The F-35A and F-35C, are actually pretty good, capable, and cheaper than the B.

Not only did he win with the F35, he won by exactly the same margin as he predicted.
Pilots, Airmen, smart brains if I have to guess.
Maybe they filmed the "race rules scene" after the race.
Wow! Yeah you're right! 👍
Do you really think, the military goes into a "fight" without gathering intelligence about their enemy? I am sure that they knew the exact specs of the car such as straight line speed, cornering speed, drag coeficient and so on. They calculated that race in advance then briefed the pilot.

Well actually it was over when piolet explained everything prior to race

That just shows how confident he is on his skills and the jet itself

The fact he was ballsy enough to drive next to a F35 fighter jet taking off is what I'm most impressed by
You need to watch the Typhoon version
That was insane, I agree! He was looking in his rear-view mirror and I was a bit curious to see if he was having to brake ahead of the corner in order to let the jet fly past before taking a left and crossing paths. It would have been an expensive episode to make :).

dont feel too bad super cars are super cool, but imo fighter jets are by far the coolest thing mankind has ever made
Yeah, fighter jets >>>> all machinery that existed in our planet...
Every time I see this, it's so amazing. I can't imagine how much of a logistical nightmare it was to set all this up, from approving it, to the cost for maintenance before and after just to do a little demo.
its a daily occurrence for the maintenance crew, drop in the bucket
Ive actually done a very similar thing, Im avionics for the U-2S and the landing gear is so shit that a pilot literally has to chase the jet when it lands with a supercharged dodge and radios the flying pilot to tell them how far off the ground they are. Its called a chase car. But we're only going about 140 mph
The liability insurance alone must have cost a fortune lol
@@wkcreasman I don't understand is it a visibility issue for the pilot to see weather the landing gear is angled right?
@@ASbored He forgot to add that the U2-S only has two wheels, one in the front and one in the back, it's also meant for VERY high altitude operations, so it works less efficiently at lower
They fly them all the time for test flights, training, and actual missions no less so a demo is no big deal.
And "logistical nightmare"???
You think they just have all the planes sitting around in hangers 24/7 with no plans or intentions of ever using them?
