Many negative comments here. It is very easy to make fun from a 1934 design from today`s perspective. To me it is an interesting concept plane and I give credit to designer for extravagant look.
Little known fact: The design was actually an Anglo-French collaboration. The French designed the plane, and the British stuck a K6 phone box on the front. The bomb-aimer would release the bombs when he heard the pips.
wow 2400 km d autonomie en 34 c est impressionant. il me semble avoir vu un bimoteur construit par la société Blériot a la même époque lui ressemblant un peu. Merci en tout cas pour ce très interessant " oiseau rare" ...
I can pick out the French world for "machine gun". Not too bad for its time; take a look at the Martin B-10, but the first B-17 appeared only a year later.
An interesting concept for sure and at least Breguet was aware that it should be able to defend itself against more agile opononents but the heavy fighter concept was flawed and even a BF 110 would have flown rings around this. Maybe the dutch Fokker G1 came closer because it was very nimble for it's size but it was never built in enough numbers to make a difference. And then there is the Mosquito of course.
And P-61 and He 219 and Beaufighter and A-26 and Voodoo and Phantom and Tornado and F-111 . The Mighty Wings of heavy fighter take you to the Danger Zone
@@JanoTuotanto Yeah, but most of these depended on changed technology (radar and agile missiles). Only in over sea missions with no direct light fighter interference have heavier prop fighters been effective.
@Ricco Delestaque Merci monsieur. J’ai être néerlandais a vous offrir pour excuse... Si’l s’agit d’une science (en revanche, mais tout en bon humeur!) ne parlerait-on pas de “0rthographie”? Bonne journée à vous!
Randall, click on the gear, then subtitles, then select English and voilà English Subs. I have watched many videos with this trick. Have fun. BTW not all have the dual subtitle option
What a van der Rohe design might look like. It has that glass curtain wall down pat and is clearly streamlined in one dimension. The French left held down the armament effort and the result was war materiel made on the cheap. Pity.
I agree. It’s a very architectural airplane.. it’s streamlined in plan but not in section. Looks like a prototype and I’m sure it could have developed into something very interesting. Very innovative 👍
Me too, I speak good German, some swahili and colloquial Cantonese, but sadly no French. I do understand Dutch though, it always seems to be a mix of English and German.
From the 1920s to 1940, Britain and France competed to see who could produce the most godawful hideous military aircraft. While Britain had a few outstanding examples, overall the lead was held by France. But with the liberation and reconstruction of France, following the war American influence intervened and while American designers may not have had the French flair for style, they at least had common sense, and French monstrosities disappeared from the aviation scene. Meanwhile, the unhindered British finally proved with their postwar designs that they had the staying power to consistently produce aircraft that only flew because the ground was too embarrassed to hold them.
On peut douter sérieusement des capacités de chasse d'un tel appareil... C'était aussi une époque de tests tout azimuts, c'est sûrement comme ça qu'il faut le voir
@@darkesthours1848 c'est une époque où les bombardiers avaient souvent une défense rapprochée c'est vrai. Que ce soit un mitrailleur arrière pour les petits bombardiers d'appuis au sol, ou des mitrailleurs en tourelles dessus / dessous et des mitrailleurs de queue et de nez pour les plus gros (les B29 américains avaient encore deux mitrailleurs de plus sur les flancs). Pour le chasse, on à vite opté pour des engins au plus rapide et manœuvrant, avec un grosse puissance de feu droit devant et c'est tout. Ce chasseur la, il risquait d'avoir du mal à rattraper les bombardiers déjà. Donc inutile !
The BCR aircraft of l'Armee de l'Air were products of an early days' period of experiment with what to-day, with far different power & weaponry, most certainly would come under the heading of a 1930s 'multirole' war plane; unfortunately, the available machine guns & cannon of the time could not make the aeroplanes into any sort of successful 'flying fortresses' with the firepower then available.
Ce que je trouve bizarre avec cet avion c'est la dénomination de "chasseur", parce que c'est quand même un engin assez lourd, et les 5 membres d'équipage le montrent bien. Je pense que même en tant que chasseur lourd ou avion d'attaque au sol cela ne l'aurait pas forcément rendu meilleur. Je suis loin d'être un expert, mais je pense qu'un tel appareil ne pouvait pas être aussi polyvalent que ça, à part pour se défendre avec ses tourelles, il n'a absolument rien d'un chasseur.
An Art-Deco Warplane.
French style
Just needed a few tomato plants up front to finish it off nicely.
I love 1930's French planes, very aesthetically and technologically pleasing

No negative comments, just funny ones; humor is a sign of intelligence, don't you agree, "Benny Hill"?
@Dr Evil Untreated mental health issues. That's the base diagnostic of people who come to the internet to fight. Welcome to my blocked list!
I am impressed also by the design, especially for the mid-thirties.
Thanks for having it so I could follow what was being said .
Merci d'avoir inclus les spécifications techniques de cet avion.
What a design. Imagine seeing it flying. Wow.
It makes the Blenheim look positively modern! Hey it has a built in patisserie and an orangery!
Was the restaurant in the front?
I was swallowing when i read your comment. LOL
Bistro, Brasserie, Café, and Wine Bar
The pool is optional and it can be attached to the wings or fuselage.
J apprends des choses interessantes sur une periode interessante merci et félicitations
Looks like a flying green house.
This is the only video I could find on the Breguet 460 vulture
Have you seen the Potez footage in “Espoire - Sierra de Teruel” ?
Very interesting and informative! Thank you!!
Make the front a giant axe blade. It looks art deco, cool looking

You can certainly see some similarities with British bombers.
Super! Merci pour cette vidéo!
Could of done with a nice set of curtains to stop the Germans from looking in.
Brilliant! It wouldn't be any funnier had your name not been 'draper'.

Magnifique avion ! Merci pour cette vidéo bien documentée. Seul regret : pas la "voix" des moteurs…
Looks like a flying Metro station.
My French inadequate but still interesting.
looks like an aircraft version of a French pre dreadnought battleship.
It's actually amazing how thoroughly I don't understand French.
Same. And I've been learning it for the last two years 😑
Nice ... I'll take one..
Quand nous voyons notre histoire aéronautique et ou nous en sommes à ce jour il est temps de se poser les bonnes questions
Any info on the biplane chasing the vulture at beginning of the video?
No wonder the Germans invaded. They were afraid of this cutting edge technology!
Great video ! Make one on the Languedoc... Thanks !
Pity that the video doesn't have English subtitles!.
From this afternoon you can see the English subtitles. I hope you will like this. Yours truly.
I really like old planes like this. Like real life Dieselpunk. Just needs twenty more propellers and fifty more guns, lol.
L'aérodynamisme n'était pas encore une préoccupation majeure à l'époque !

je conseille d'améliorer un peu la qualité sonore, soit avec un micro plus performant sinon en améliorant le son sur audacity.
L’acoustique compte aussi, je dirais que le raconteur ce trouve dans une relativement petite pièce aves surfaces durs.

beautifull plane, it has a porco rosso vibe, if you had the chance to take a look at the skies in the 30's, take a good look at it
Looks cool, like Bombers, so we dont have the stats on how well it performed :(
Aeronautical engineers used to say: If it looks good it will fly well. I bet this one didn't fly well.
This plans reminds me one of them Talespin cartoon awkward looking planes.

You should have learn French at school instead of picking up girls ;-)

The french version of the He111
A lot of negative comments here. Ya, a bit funny looking but pretty decent performance for 1935 when most fighters barely did 250mph
Hotel goes to war
L'équipage disposait-il d'oxygène ? Avec des moteurs suralimentés ce serait logique. Plafond de cet appareil ?

I think Messieur Breguet was a cardboard box designer before he got into the airplane business!

The most luxurious version came with an elevator, sauna, pool, food amenities, helipad and garage for 6 cars.
Joke aside, that was a beautiful plane.
Un Handley-Page Hampden Française.
Hampden is far sexier and a lot more streamlined. Like comparing a carthorse with a race horse!

It's a shame about all french made plane documentary are all in french speaking, but can't speak French, not a lot do speak
French people.......what next?
Had to be French....or Russian...😝
This was one heck of an ugly thing...
Only Italy produced anything as ugly.
it is neither "art deco" nor "interesting style" as suggested by some comments. In my opinion, it's simply UGLY.
Frog engineering .... would be good for laughs, at least.
