I'm glad you managed to include those last 10 minutes about the Typhoon! Otherwise this title might be considered clickbait ...
Lol. I thought it was Doc on F-15,wtf.
Haha
just missed the clickbait
@@jameshunter744 Yeah - I was thinking someone had buggered-up the title listing.
Fortunately it was all interesting and sort of put Eurofighter in context.
Thanks for the heads-up, man. Now I wont have to waste time watching the entire thing!
37:52 into this before the first mention of a Eurofighter!
Yeah, less than ten minutes before the end of nearly 48 minutes video. A clickbait, and a well deserved thumb down from me
In my opinion !.The pilott ?.
@@MrKotBonifacy Same.
38:21 Craig wasn’t happy about that
Yep....... I was looking forward to a full 45 minutes of Typhoon and yet, it hardly featured at all really....
When you put the F-35, the Raptor & the Euro-Fighter together, you know that you can wake up in the morning, all 3 of you can be briefed on the mission, set off together, get the job done and still get back in time for breakfast,
😎👍🏼
Indeed!
I'm actually pretty stoked that Germany is buying the F-35 to replace the Tornado.
The T-35 and the Typhoon will make for a very well performing pair.
My dad flies them! He loves it so much. When he leaves the house I think he’s about to handle a £66m piece of kit.
_"Run away bravely and home for tea and medals"_ Priceless.
Beautiful documentary on fighter planes !
Alle Drei Top Jets aber die Wendigkeit geht klar an den Eurofighter..... und die Steigrate ist ebenfalls der Hammer
That Typhoon is one nice plane !
I drove from the UK into Belgium and then Germany about 5 or 6 years ago. When i entered Germany I was treated to a flyby from 3 German Air Force typhoons going pretty quick with some sideways action - amazing moment, I’ll never forget that. Awesome planes.
I live next to an RAF base in next County (Hereford, home of the SAS!) and we occasionally see Typhoon's, helicopters and other military planes flying over our County, they really are impressive and put the fear of God into you, so loud you can feel their power in your body and so incredibly fast! It must be truly terrifying to have a fleet of these coming attacking your country!! When I was in Gibraltar some years back, I saw a couple of Typhoon's parked up at the tiny civi airport which also is used as a mini RAF base lol. Was great to see them so close up getting off the plane. Over the other side of the 'Rock' is also a giant military naval base with some very impressive destroyer ships from UK and US lined up and you get a very good view from the Rock on the naval base which is enormous like a town fenced off.
They are such agile planes and the pilots are incredible flying at speeds up to 2,000mph and making those turns and sudden upward flights the G-force is tremendous and they need oxygen. I remember seeing someone taken in one for a demonstration and sick all over the cockpit he just couldn't handle it lol. I also remember the display at the Queen's Diamond Jubilee the fly-over was very impressive from old to latest planes.
Shit fighter with no Stealth, but it had good mannuvre ability a few seconds before beaten when it just came out.
I did my draft in northern Germany. Decades ago. And I remember some A10 pilots doing a low pass, that clearly was for fun.
@@paullangton-rogers2390 Yep, seen a video explaining how it feels flying a Yak aerobatic plane, the first time. These planes are so responsive, that each tiny movement of the stick results in high G-forces. Such planes are violent, for real. When such planes have several dangerous things-you-should-never-do, things get nasty. Example? There's a fast bomber that starts a spin when you push the stick. Flying low in the mountains, going up is no problem, but going down you MUST roll over and fly inverted. High speed, very very low altitude, and when terrain gets sketchy, well, fly upside down. Some planes are not pilot friendly at all. Think about the vintage single prop fighters, these things did not want to take off in a straight line, full throttle means trouble. So weird they did not install two counter-rotating props, solving these high power prop problems. No, hundreds of pilots died simply during take off and landing, thanks to that "marvelous" plane. What, marvelous?! And that is the challenge, staying in control.
I'd be terrified of the F-22
You must be military airport mechanic then.
that means you don't live in the USA.
@@capobilotti they need lots of servicing in order to stay stealthy. As dirt gets stuck to the skin of the aircraft, the radar cross section begins to rise. So much of the constant maintenance that your seeing from the f22 is just in order to keep it very stealthy on radar👍🏻
@@keepmahaney7412 Ever since stealth became a thing, all superpowers deployed radars with different wave length.
They have usually significantly lower range, but they very likely can spot them before they get to firing range. There's significantly less time for interceptors to get in air, climb to altitude and intercept, but it's still doable.
F-117 in Serbia was literally shot down by prehistoric missiles, just by estimate speed and altitude calculation of spotters reporting through radio to upcoming AA battery.
Designs for planes like the F15 go back 50+ years but - to my eyes at least - they don't look at all old, they still look sleekly modern.
Just imagine the things being designed right now. They'd probably look alien to us civilians
The F-15 is one of the most beautiful looking things that humanity has ever made.
MG3, .50 Browning, 40mm Bofors, F15, Tornado and even the old Gepard still seems to be doing what it's supposed to do. Some things are just so good and proven that it's not worth building something new. An occasional update is enough. Man, how long have we had the F4 Phantom II? Has still done its job in the 2nd or 3rd row.
The Starfighter was different. Killed over 100 pilots in peacetime.
Once I start talking about air superiority fighters, I tend to ramble on a little, lol.
F-15's may be old, but they were ahead of their time so it makes sense they'd still have that "don't mess with me effect." It's quite a jump from the MD F-4 Phantom that was it's main predecessor, originally appearing in the late 50's and in later variants through the 90's. Not to dump on F-4's, however. F-4's were big, tough, and fast, but not as agile and originally didn't have internal guns, just missiles. In Vietnam, it cost the US pilots not having internal guns if missiles failed and a dogfight broke out with MiG-17's, MiG-19's, and MiG-21's. US pilots still had superior training which still kept the kill ratio in their favor, along with great support aircraft and smaller fighters.
Well, the F15 reminds me of toys that stole it's design from when I was a child. As you can imagine that wan't yesterday, but not 50 years ago either... :p
Edit: Also, reminds me that cars used to be very angular, before, now they are all rond as they can be. I think it's related, like the advancing design of a F1 car.
I love Tiff Needell! I recognize that voice anywhere.
Based on the uniforms this video is old. This gotta be early 2000s cause after 2005 the us military switched uniforms.
in the description it says documentary from 2003.
Harrier Pilot stated joining Harrier squadron in 1994 and been in service for 12 years that make 2006.
@@nigelbenn4642 well noticed.
30 years of service, of course it's early 2000s, do the maths.
The Typhoon entered service in 2003 and in the intro for the F-15 they mention it's been in service for 30 years (1:29) so documentary was filmed circa. 2003.
I believe this was an outstanding video covering the Eurofighter Typhoon. lol.
I would be a great Jet-fighter Pilot because like the Eurofighter I can get high fast. That's my contribution of the day. Great video.
love the f15 eagle, pure class , it is what it is, gorgeous and powerfull,
Nice documentary as a whole lads . .
My all-time favourite aircraft ever since I first seen one at Sunderland Airshow when it scared the crap out of me for being so loud which I wasn't expecting.
F-15 was around when I was in the air force in 1976. One badass bird.
"And bravely run away!!" 🤣🤣🤣
I wonder if he intentionally quoted Monty Python there??
Fabulous Documentry
Thumbs up for good content. The program's main detraction is its title. Less than 9 minutes of a 47 minute program are on the Typhoon. A better title is "Comparison of seven jet fighter / bombers'. Time stamps are: Intro: 0:00 F-15: 1:06 Harrier: 14:00 F-35: 19:51 F-16: 22:34 F-117: 27:32 F-22: 32:40 Typhoon: 37:55 Conclusion: 46:51
P.S. I include 'bomber', as many are dual purpose and the F-117 is not a fighter.
Super
You da real MVP
@@JohnGone-wl8uo Your 'dissing' of the Typoon is overblown. While its origin is a bit dated (mid 1990's), compared to the F-35 it costs less, has a substantially higher top speed, especially when loaded with it full complement of weapons, has a lower wing loading (which translates into greater agility), and may even have a higher weapons payload. It can carry 6 missiles and 6 bombs. It can take off even when the combined weight of fuel and weapons exceeds 28,000 lbs, which more than doubles the empty weight of the aircraft. I believe Lockheed's F-35 is generally superior, but not always. Don't get carried away with dissing other aircraft.
@@JohnGone-wl8uo You'd provide a stronger argument if you skipped the personal, derisive comments. You got so carried away that your sentence about 'lightweight loser's weapons load' is disjointed. After reading the sentences which follow, I'm able to reply to your points.
1) The U.S. is testing lasers for use on jet fighters and has optimistically suggested a 20kW laser might begin to be incorporated by 2025. IF that happens (a big IF), that could be a game changer. What has been demonstrated so far is that a stable, ground based laser can down a fairly slow moving target after a number seconds of continued targeting.
That's impressive. But it is a MAJOR and yet unproven extrapolation that it could do the same against a high speed missile, with the laser mounted on a high speed jet, both in turbulent air, with clouds, high humidity (which greatly attenuates laser power), etc.
In the early '90's, I worked in the defense industry and saw photographs of lasers fired at objects 8 miles away (non moving laser, non moving target) - If I extrapolate what has developed in the ~30 years since to where we appear to be today, it's debatable if lasers will be on the F-35 in the next few years.
But if they are, a more realistic objective would be for the laser to partially blind the missile's infrared tracking system. But even just maintaining a laser beam on a small missile moving at Mach 3 to Mach 6, all while the jet is being buffeted by winds, and the missile obscured by clouds and atmospheric distortions, is a PHENOMENAL challenge.
At any rate, your inclusion of a product that's years away from even being incorporated, let alone proven in real world combat situations is NOT (currently) a persuasive argument against the Typhoon.
2) Mach 17??? The hypersonic glide missiles in development currently have no relevance as neither the Typhoon nor the F-35 have the payload capacity for these large missiles. The only fighter we have that has the been configure to carry and test this is the newer variant of the F-15.
3) IBCS (Integrated Battle Command System) Yes, the U.S. and companies like Northrop-Grumman and Raytheon are leading its development. But we work with our allies and (presumably) will share this communications capability. If so, the Europeans should be free decide whether to retrofit their older aircraft or only incorporate it into new ones.
4) Vertical landing - The lack of vertical landing is NOT essential for ALL missions. Where it is, the F-35B is indeed the only game in town. However, the Typhoon can take off from shorter runways than the F-35A. So the vertical landing argument is mission specific.
5) Communicate with an F-15EX? I don't know. Do YOU know. If you do, elaborate on it. As with IBCS, the U.S. military certainly has the capacity to drive this communications standard to be adopted by our allies and know the strategic value in doing so.
5) Flown remotely? While it has been proposed, I've yet to see that it has been done with an F-35. Unless you can establish that it not only has been proven, but is being incorporated as an option in battle, this is just another one of your hypotheticals (like the laser).
6) Targeting objects using remote assets. This was done well before the F-35 entry into combat, during our fighting with the Taliban. One example is the canon fired 'Excalibur' shell, a newer one is the 'Copperhead'. Even verbal listing of GPS coordinates suffice to then allow for terminal guidance to the precise target. However, I'm sure that many advances have been made in this area. It's our military's option whether of not to share communications with our allies.
7) 'Panther' Really?? That was the name given to the Grumman F-9F in the late 1940's. I guess old is the new 'new'.
Based on your derisive comments, you're taking this WAY too personal. I like the F-35 and acknowledge it has the best combination of 'sensor fusion', communications, and stealth. My point is simply that the F-35 is not EVERYBODY's best solution, and for ALL combat situations. I don't subscribe to your premise that their military analysts must be stupid when their purchase evaluations/priorities don't match yours.
An argument about the F-35's superiority in ALL situations totally fails when the F-35 is touted as a replacement for the A-10 for close air support. The A-10:
- Can loiter for HOURS
- Has a GIANT 30mm cannon with 1200 rounds of amor piercing munitions
- It has ~11 hardpoints for carrying missiles and other munitions
- Is built so tough that it's impervious to small arms fire
- Has a TRIPLE redundant flight control system
- Has a titanium armored pilot cockpit
- Has an armored fuel tank that is also self sealing if punctured
- Has TWO engines
- Both engines are designed for low speed, high efficiency and SUPER tough
- Has an airframe that's so tough that it has flown back to base with parts of its wing blown off by missile strikes.
- Is so imposing that just the sustained presence of a loitering A-10 has suppressed enemy fire.
@@JohnGone-wl8uo No other country comes anywhere near inventing things, things we all use every day, than Great Britain. No other country comes remotely close. Invented the Jet engine, T.V, Telephone, Train, Penicillin, Computer, Hovercraft, Vertical Take Off Landing aircraft, LCD, Tanks, The World Wide Web, look at the history of each of those? A person from the UK lay at the heart of the device? I could keep going, Britain is responsible for an astonishing 54%, of all worldly inventions.
Britain is also responsible for an enormous 61% of all modern day military invention. The chances are, if you were to look up any random piece of military hardware, there's a 2/3 chance it will be a British invention.

With the latest upgrades and improvements on the Typhoon, it's really a 4th ++aircraft.

@@raymond8344 Whittle designed the first jet engine and tested it on a bench in 37. They signed a contract with the British to make the Gloster E.28/39 aircraft. Meanwhile in Germany during 39 n 40, Hans von Ohain designed a jet Engine for the M 262 which flew prior to the British getting Whittles Engine airborn for the first time in May 41. The Whittle was a great engine and England handed the design of the 1X and drawings of the W.2B to General electric which made a modification and GE went on to create the Bell XP-59A Airacomet. I'm not sure if England sold or gave there US the engine design because of WW II . But the US then gave the modifications and design back to England. A very fast pace as a result of WW II I'm sure. The Germans were not able to mass produce the ME until 44

Como aficionado a la aviación considero a este documental como excelente. Buenísimo ! Gracias Spark
Fun fact: if a plane hasn't been talked about by Tiff Needell, it doesn't exist.
15:05 Little point taking off vertically, if you don't have any stores. Harrier is actually designed as STOVL, so it can take of from very short runways with mission stores and fuel, and land vertically (very useful for naval operations).
Sick my guts you use it against small country
@@anathonyjamaica4390 wtf lmao no they use it against people seeking to cause great harm to their country, the same as you would do if someone was attacking and destroying your country
It was designed for when the Cold War became a hot war in Europe, supporting ground troops, operating from improvised runways like roads or even clearings in forests. Takeoff weight = plane + crew + fuel + bomb/weaponload. So if it was very close to the front line it would carry weapons and not fuel so still could take off vertically.
38.00 Minutes in and Typhoon makes 1st appearance, then its worth watching..The sustained 9G at supersonic speeds was a surprise
12:21 In the middle of the dogfight, one of them turned into an F-14 apparently.
Love the eurofighter but grew up playing Jane's f15...got a soft spot in my heart for that plane
Only the last ten minutes covers the Typhoon......

F-22: Am I a joke to you?
in my opinion, F-16 is the most beautiful designed combat airplane ever made, with the F-14 as a close runner-up
And imo F-22 is the greatest fighter of all time, it easily beats the Eurofighter in pretty much all aspects, including the eurofighters tail, because thats where it will spend its entire time in a dogfight w the eurofighter
Apples compared to oranges zzzzzz
@@aviationist1018 Except that we could have two or three Eurofighters coming at an F22 at once for the less money.
@@lenfirewood4089 watch that
@@aviationist1018 I should point out that as a dogfighter the F22 has been beaten by a French Rafale as well a German Eurofighter because despite the thrust vectoring capabilties of the F22 it isn't much use when a Eurofighter can lock on onto it's adversary even at a 90% angle offset and score a "kill"..
I was in California on base. In order to leave you must cross over the runway at the beginning. It was fabulous watching these jet’s coming and going. One time I looked really good and I got the all clear to cross the runway. Haft way I looked out only to see not one but 4 jet’s doing a mock emergency landing 10 ft off the water! Needless to say I almost SMSelf trying to get the hell out of way. The next day two of the pilots spotted my truck and came over. It was a big laugh because they were doing this to keep people on their toe’s when on a active air base.

Tiff Needell voiceover
That's what i thought when i first heard the voice
Thanks for sharing your video! An awesome show of wonderful aircraft!
In one word: Thrilling! 👍👍✌️🇬🇧
Great video .. lot of amazing planes. Whilst it is fun to theoretically compare which plane is better than the other, you've got to remember two things. 1) Warplanes are designed for specific roles, sometimes VERY specific roles, and 2) necessity is the mother of innovation; i.e. you sometimes just have to fight with what you have. Great example .. the Harrier. It was initially designed for a very specific Cold War purpose - i.e. a plane that could take off and land from a field or patch of tarmac in Germany and get to the front line rapidly to support ground troops. Initially shunned by the RAF because it wasn't sexy supersonic, it was later repurposed as the Sea Harrier when the UK decided it couldn't afford to build a new large Carrier with catapults and built two amphibious assault ships with ramps instead. The Sea Harrier then essentially won the Falkands War for the UK by shooting down 21 supersonic Dassault Entendards and Mirages (theoretically far superior dogfighting planes flown by good pilots) for ZERO losses - which I think is the most amazing air combat story ever.
That goes to show how much the training and essentially pilot skill is the most important and crucial factor in any fight, within or beyond visual range!
45:25 'Carefree Handling' translated = traction control!
Great Video, except that the music is too loud. Good job there were subtitles.
This was a great compilation. When can we see the Mig / Sukhoi version?
I’m gonna be saying “hair, teeth and eyeballs” for the rest of my days and laugh every time! Thank you, sir!
The Harrier is So Badass 🔥 Even if its just for that one purpose of being like a Chopper. It Rocks.
I rather have a jet that both flies hypersonic & lands like a helicopter with a stability of a blimp.

You can never tell what those Canadians are gonna do.
Stealth doesn't make a plane invisible to radar lol...it minimizes radar cross section so that it becomes harder to track and lock on to it.
Wrong answer, go do your home work and update your comment. Your halfway correct but stealth is the best period. All the US stealth aircraft can fly through the area with little fear of ever being detected and if they were they’d be gone before the enemy realized they were there.
fun fact: the b2 stealth bomber has a radar cross section the size of a bumblebee

Typhoon is definately the most elegant looking of these planes. It has that mix between Mirage and F16 which are on their own already nice looking, but the Typhoon blends them perfectly together.
Dont disgrace the Mirage please...
Don’t insult the Typhoon! The west never used Russian technology as it’s the other way round and them RAF Typhoons just performed that perfect 70 for the Queen

The F15 was designed to be able to deploy nukes when we were still trying to work out our ICBMs. That’s one of the reasons it was so big and heavy.
You're very, very badly informed. The F-15 was designed to gain and mantain air superiority, to confront and beat any possible opponent in air-to-air confrontation. It is a pure fighter. You're talking about the F-15E, the fighter-bomber derivative (nearly identical at first glance, apart from being a two-seater). And deploying nukes, definitely, wasn't the reason for the dimensions of the aircraft.
@@andreabindolini7452 You are partially right. I think I was thinking of the F15E Strike Eagle when I said that. I know the F15 is one of the best ever air-to-air fighter jets. Wasn’t its development radically altered in response to the Fox Bats before we realized it was a shit plane? However, why you’re only partially right is because the F15 was considered a compromise by the Fighter Mafia, which wanted it much lighter. However, one or more of the branches wanted it to be a plane with the speed to enter enemy territory and payload capacity to drop nukes on enemy territory. One of the reasons was, as I mentioned before, that when it was under development we were not yet fully confident in our ICBMs to deliver MAD level strikes. The fighter mafia wanted the F15 to be something like the size and weight of the F16.
hahah! I love the F-14 obviously depicting the F-15 during the BFM scenes ;) Long live the LEGEND TOMCAT!
Stealth aircraft have been around since the 1950's. Furthermore virtually all stealth aircraft are made stealthy not by shape or composite material, but by very simple electronics.
As a totally unbiased Swede I would have to say that the SAAB Gripen is best ever!!
for real
Gripen is nice. But there’s no point guessing which is best because we will never see these planes against eachother.
I regularly wonder why we can’t war against the French but it just never happens.

He said when he was in Japan or S.Korea that once they went a certain range off the coast they could do barrel rolls and loops all day if they wanted. I was jealous. Closest i got was sitting in a F18 while it was powering up for a test and that was amazing. I did get to fly in the largest airplane in the US. The C5 and then I flew in the C17 from Kuwait to Germany then Germany straight to Southern Cali with a refueling over the Atlantic that was scary. I also flew in the CH53 and CH46 helo's off the LHD6(RIP) but would trade all that to fly the F15 just once
@KUNG FU WARRIOR-KING how tou got any of that out of what he said I dont no. Stop taking my religion and making it a ugly thing, stop spewing hate and think for yourself.
@KUNG FU WARRIOR-KING all he did was the same exact thing you did where you said that you were glad that a huey was on the list.
@KUNG FU WARRIOR-KING and who killed millions of people in the name of Allah.
@KUNG FU WARRIOR-KING I understand you're young and the only thing you're interested in his video games. You have a lot to learn sir
@KUNG FU WARRIOR-KING so again you can't answer any of my questions, but I'll ask another one. Since you're all smart and you're the all high-and-mighty explain to me how Islam is your religion before it's mine. Trust me I'm not the person you want to go to battle over religion with.
Great explanation of fighter jet comparison to supersonic stealth fighter to supersonic fighter jet
"Excess thrust is a boost" :)
"excess thrust is always a bonus" ;-)
That typhoon is something else, period.
Hair, teeth, and eyeballs. Been decades since I said that. Thanks for the memories.
The sound mix on this show is hilarious.
Saw one of those Eurofighters buzzing a suspected bomb carrying passenger jet landing at Manchester Airport a few years back. Never seen anything move so fast. It made the passenger plane look like a toy.
Have a new brain transplanted in China.

I selected this video to see the Typhoon. So all I see at first is the F-15. I like the F-15, but let's title this thing correctly, OK? The Harrier stuff is great, too!
Pure Awesomness
the beauty of these machines is that they manage to make you forget that they are the highest expression of human cowardice, dropping bombs on people for 15 ooo feet
My momma' sed there'd be days like this with Little personnel LoL.😄
NDI = X-ray, ultrasonic, eddy current, fluorescent penetrate and magnetic particle. JOAP oil analyst is also part of NDI.
Wish Australia had invested in the Typhoon instead of the immensely problematic F35
Nice to see ZH588 moving rather than hanging from a ceiling in Hendon.
😊 SPARK this is not video for eurofighter typhoon LOL 😂
Someone needs to work on their audio dubbing skills...
This video is from 2006, audio is pretty normal for that time period.
A very beautiful video thank you . Peace any love 💕💕💕💕😘 thank you.💕💕
The thing that stood out to me was the "twice as better" comment by the American guy talking about the Raptor, and there was me thinking that pilots were well educated :-)
Great airplanes all. It will be interesting to see how the Typhoon pans out in combat. Or, better yet, maybe it will help us avoid wars.
สวัสดีเครื่องบินสวยๆทุกๆอย่างเลยจืา
