    Honestly what surprised me most about this simulation is that it feels slower than my mind expected. I thought Manhattan would whizz past so fast that you would hardly even get a chance to look at it. I guess you would literally have to be at street level, altitude 1 meter, before it would feel so disorienting as that.

    • @mylist8020
      @mylist8020 ปีที่แล้ว +48

      Reason why it moves a lot slower at sea level is because of air resistance. If the plane was in space, it would move faster because it is in a vacuum and there is no resistance

    • @gregsuhok659
      @gregsuhok659 ปีที่แล้ว +82

      I thought so too, but the math doesn't lie. The SR-71 cruised around 2,200 mph or 0.61 miles per second. Manhattan island is about 12 miles long. Meaning, it would take an SR-71 about 20 seconds to travel the south to north end. Very fast indeed, but not in the blink of an eye.

      maximum speed was mach 3.3-3.5 depending on air conditions, any higher than that and the engines would "flare out", essentially turning off due to a supersonic shock wave traveling through the compressor turbines. There are many documented accounts of that exact thing happening, and it caused several crashes.

      With the high-tempeture alloys used when the J-58 engine was designed, tested and flown there was a Do-Not-Exceed speed that limited the Mach number that could be flown, before they would fail due to overheating. It's tempting to think about the alloys available today and how the J-58 could be redesigned to take advantage of them in the high Mach regime. Similar engine component limitations were encountered with the WW2 German jet engines.

      Youre right, you had the idea that Blackbird would be hurling over the city in a blue, but not so.
      Mach 1 = 761 mph, so mach 3 is 2,283 mph. If you set the video to .5 speed, then SR71 is going mach 1.5, or 1,141 mph (or F-18A/C top speed is 1.8m), and therefore .25 speed is .75 mach, or 571 mph, same as an airliner.

    The SR-71. In the late 70's I was with a group that went to Beal AFB to watch the Black Bird take off. Completely insane that was. It began to increase throttle but fuel started flowing out the rear engine nozels. That is when the Pilot in one fast move throttled completely down and then full throttle, OMG it exploded with sound, and the fireballs that happened it all was the loudest roar and such a vibration thru your body it stung a bit. We were pretty close to the runway. After take off it immediately went vertical and quickly disappeared. The Militay guy then said it is now leveling off at 30,00 feet maybe 5 minutes and meeting a tanker waiting to refill it with fuel. He said that usually, the SR-71 won't pull vertically right when it is has brought in the landing gear but this maneuver going vertical and picking up speed so quickly was a rare sight to behold and feel. And a couple years later on a county road going down to Beal AFB an SR-71 was in its glide slope to land but from this direction, it was just below the ridge line on both sides of a small valley. When I saw it I was going toward Beal AFB and to my right there it was I immediately slowed down stuck my arm out the window and began franticly waving well the Pilot saw me and waved back! That experience seared into my brain and I feel very fortunate to have watched a full throttle take off and vertical ascent then a low fly and the wave exchange at the top part of the valley, we were at the same level, I was on the ridge and he was just opposite me. He freaking waved back. Oh goodness.

I wish I'd bought his Book "Sled Driver" for $75 bucks as it would be worth much more today. Anyways, during Brian's slideshow presentation (yea, it was a "slideshow") he disclosed the top speed of the SR-71 @ Mach 4.5+, because he'd actually flown it that fast. The story of President Nixon deploying this special A/C to Vietnam just to "Boom the Bad Guys" was priceless. There's much trivia about this A/C most don't know, like for example; the original Skunkworks designation for this A/C was the RS-71. Pres LBJ, with his dyslexia condition, read the designator wrong when announcing it's existence to the public. Rather than embarrassing the Pres, the Skunkworks renamed it SR-71.

      You are not the first to question that comment and others I've worked with in the industry have confirmed as much. So did the Blackbird actually do Mach 4.5, your guess is as good ass mine, but that's what the Man said regardless.
      In my 35+ years in Aviation I've met one of the first to ever fly the SR-71, (an original Test Pilot out of Hood River, Ore), a Top Gun Instructor, a Highly decorated Nam Pilot who flew the last "Recip" powered Warbird in active service, (the Douglas A-1 Skyraider), Currier who's job it was to hand carry Top Secret intel from the White House, across the Potomac River and to the Pentagon, The Software & Program manager for the Stealth Bombers, Boeing Skunkworks Engineers & NSA/CIA Satellite Engineers And finally a Skunkworks Supervisor who was stationed at Groom Lake, NV (Area 51).
      All of these people were met either thru my Radio Controlled Aircraft days, my job w/ a U.S. Major Air carrier or while working in R&D for a small group out of Seattle. My opinion is that if we've been shown the SR-72 already, there's Much more Top Secret equipment already in use Thru help from DARPA, the CIA & NSA and Pentagon Weapons Programs. The SR-72 has been touted to do Mach 6 so you Know it goes faster than disclosed speeds.

    this was an amazing machine because it flew high and the pilots were forced to use a spacesuit to survive in the plane, but...this wasn't the most amazing machine ever because once a former SR71 pilot said : we had a message on the radio which told us : "change your direction, there's a Concorde coming towards you at mach 2 "
    While the sr71's pilot was wearing a spacsuit in a noisy and dangerous plane 100 people were drinking champagne wearing tuxedos in a luxurious plane just in front of the SR71

    It's faster than I imagined, but let's be honest : 3 951 km/h (2455 mph) is insanely fast for an aircraft ! To get and idea how fast it is, a Barrett M107A1 shoots a .50 BMG with a muzzle velocity of 838 m/s (2750 fps) or 3 017 km/h (1874 mph).

  • @roidroid
    @roidroid ปีที่แล้ว

    if anyone's wondering, no it wouldn't be able to go this fast at ground level - it would explode. It's designed to go this speed only up where the air is very thin, and the pilots wear SPACESUITS - mainly to protect from the AIR-FRICTION HEATING that would otherwise make the cockpit hot enough to kill a person.
    It can barely survive at this speed at it's designed altitude, at ground level it would melt itself.

    The SR-71 max speed is at high altitude (80,000 ft) where the air is much thinner, it wouldn't get anywhere near this speed at low altitude where the air is the most dense.
