Sure. The A (USAF) has short wings, the B (USMC) has a short wings and a hump behind the cockpit and the C (USN) has long wings and carrier strength landing gear with two front wheels.
@@wingwatchersaviation the most visible difference is the gun fairing on top of the left wing root. Only the A-model has an internal gun. The B-model has a wider "neck" behind the cockpit to fit the lifting fan for those vertical landings, while the carrier based C-model has a much larger wing and heavy duty landing gear with twin nose wheels. The B and C can be fitted with a gun pod underneath if it is a mission requirement. 👍
So the TA-4 Skyhawk just did a low pass and left? That's a shame. It looks like it might have been N234LT... which is the only airworthy green TA-4 that I know of.
Can you tell me why757 Test bed a Resembles a hammer Shark hammerhead shark? I know it’s a Test bed but it looks like designers were Cartoon Shark fans
@@juanmanuelventura8203 the sign in front of the aircraft said this: "It's unique appearance results from the incorporation of external elements of the F-22's capabilities, including its nose shroud, the sensor wing mounted atop the crown of the aircraft, and the chin pod". The F-22 wing appears to have sensors built into the leading edge, so this testbed needed to be able to test it.
Thats not what is so impressive. Its the the fact that F-15EX can carry up to 16 AIM-120 or newer long range AIM-260 missiles. So a 4 ship formation can loose a fusilade of 64 long range active radar guided missiles. Each one, self guiding, or guided by F-15EX, or by AWACS, or aby another network centric platform. Even if only 25% of missiles connect, thats 16 Migs or Sukhois, or J-XX's downed. Lots of parachutes. So 5th gen stealth platfotm like F-35 or F-22 or 5th gen NGAD finds targetsm passes them off, and EX plow the field.
The aircraft I.D. data plaque near the canopy sill just behind the aft seat still says McDonnell Douglas on it the last time I looked at it before I retired 10 years ago.
Awesome. Used to hangout at spirit many moons ago haha, late 90s early 00s. Used to sit at the end of 26L where Midwest Helicopter was with their big S58Ts.
Thank you. Some of those airplanes really are beautiful. I hope that you take the time to look at the more recent videos. There are more beautiful airplanes, and with the newer camera, I believe I brought out more beauty.
Greeting and Thanks! I looked at a few of your videos, and you got some really unique planes. Keep up the good work!! That zoom lens you have on that camera is a thing of beauty. I also subscribed to your channel. (876)
