Hornet | Most Detailed Breakdown 

Who's excited for the Stanchion M99 Armory video!? Oh, and Check out the new Hornet Merch over at Teespring! installation00.creator-spring.com/listing/av-14-hornet

As someone who is learning about turbine engines for my career, I'm very impressed with you explaination of axial and centrifugal flow compressors. The intakes up near the front are pretty hard to explain, but I think you did a good job with proposing ideas. I would think those could also be intakes for an APU (Auxillary Power Unit) to run accessories (hydraulics, pneumatics, electrics) since the main 2 turbines don't seem to have accessories connected to them. In modern airliners, all APUs utilize a centrifugal compressor for packaging purposes, so I would surmise the hornet would be no different. We could also combine our two theories, the APU being used to run accessories and the exhaust of the apu being routed into the thrust vectoring manifolds for a "boost" function.

I miss this big stinger! Wasps are nice, but having a couple buddies on your sides lead to some fun chaos and cooperation!

The first vehicle to counter the Banshee in Halo, it really needs to come back as it's probably the best of them all in all aspects. The Falcon comes in a close second though. And 00 is still a channel I enjoy watching, even with how recent he is he's one of the greatest channels in the community.

Oh crap how did I not notice they never brought back this specific vehicle up again despite it being a awesome aircraft. How did I not notice it being disregarded by 343 completely I have zero idea. This aircraft was very cool and sad to see it forgotten in the sequels and lore.

I would replace the Wasp with the hornet in a heart beat if i could, its always nice to have a transportation option with a nimble aircraft, kind of wished we had one irl. and cant wait for the M99 Stanchion breakdown, not many people have touched on the subject sense its appearance on halo wars 2 atleast from what i have looked up.

The Hornet is definitely one of the best air vehicles in Halo. Bettered only by the Pelican in my mind. Glad to see this videos still up and this was an amazing listen!!!! Great information, and just an amazing job was done

You say you debuted when interest was waning, and I want to thank you and your channel not only for renewing my interest in halo, but also giving a wonderful look into the more technical side of the Lore that isnt usually looked at. Your videos have always been incredibly informative and interesting, and I look forward to seeing more from you!

Aircraft mechanic here. That secondary jet intake may be for an APU (auxiliary power unit) that provides electrical, hydraulic and or pneumatic power to the aircraft till the main engines start. Looking at the design of the main engines, there doesn't seem to be room for those components (pumps and generators) to be built-in on that airframe so the hornet may need the APU to be run continuously for the main electronics and hydraulics to function.

This is, by far and away, my favorite halo related channel. I love the literal, scientific nature and analytical aspect that goes into your content. Fireteam Ares NEEDS to be published, and please keep making them. And your voice is actually really soothing. Well spoken, well researched, love the content.

man, that's the notification i'm geniuenly always waiting for. aside the fact the you consistently make amazing halo content, the sound of your voice is the most chilling i've heard. period. love ya man, gonna enjoy this breakdown now =D

I like the hornet so much more than the wasp, the wasp is literally just a better banshee with hitscan and ability to hover. At least the hornet could be called a transport

@ 3:17 that's a crazy dodge of a plasma shot from a Banshee. Keep up the great work, sir!! Looking forward to more Mjolnir updates and lore vids. Hope you're feeling better! Take care of yourself :D Cheers, form Canada!!

I always felt like the Hornet is something we can actually build with our current technology

Installation00, John, the fact that you, that any of you survived still making content after the fall of Halo Infintie is a testament to your training. Hope the true fans know what I did there

Love the exploration of different turbine engine layouts in this. Above and beyond!

A most detailed breakdown of the Falcon, the ghost and the apparition ! Please

Even with the current state of Halo, it's allways easy to follow and enjoy the content because simply put, you make some of the best Halo content on RU-vid. Cheers Mr 00 🤙

I loved your real world aviation examples usage to make sense of a imaginary aircraft. Very impressive. I loved flying the hornet with my npc buddies. Can't do that with the wasp 😟

18:25 i think that's probably the air intake for the APU, that sounds more likely. (In my head) i could also be the 1st stage of something like the water jets that use a 2 stage impellers. Anyhow! great breakdown you know how to give it the level of detail commonly found something like a forgotten weapons video.

Hell yeah, just signed up for your Patreon. I’ve been following you for quite a while but with those rewards I couldn’t hold back anymore. Keep doing the amazing work that you do!

You have returned!

I love your breakdown do you think we'll get one of the falcon or hawk

I think every Halo RU-vidr brings unique perspectives and personality to their content, yourself included! Keep up the great work! Loving the content!

Great video man! Flip/flop cyclic and collective function and you’re spot on. Cyclic flies the aircraft directionally, collective flies the lift component as a single unit, pedals counteract torque or allow torque to control the nose by changing angle of blade or engine nacelle in this case.

I've missed these, I love the most detailed breakdowns :)

Good video - I really enjoy your most detailed breakdown series- and this particular subject is of great interest to me. I really wanted to get into aerodynamics when I was in school, and I have a particular interest in small VTOL aircraft. A profound lack of employment opportunities made me choose a different career path, but I still dabble in aerodynamic design from time to time. I hope you’ll do a breakdown on other aerial vehicles like the Falcon, Wasp or SparrowHawk, if you haven’t already done so.

Moat detailed breakdown of one of the most recognizable fighters of the UNSC? What a treat. Like a fine wine

17:47 This is quite likely a small jet system like you describe, but for stability, not boost - a 2-jet vtol design is inherently unstable in the pitch axis since there's no way to generate moments pitch moments with 2 aligned engines. So a hot air vectoring system like found in the Harrier is essential to keep the main fuselage stable instead of swinging up and down wildly.

I hope you continue this series!!! I want to see more UNSC Vehicles!!!

I always learn something from you videos, thanks

the pressurized cocpit could perhaps also be just so the craft can be used in toxic enviroments on alien planets.

I’ve loved this channel since the day I discovered it, for years

Can't wait for a Banshee video.

Yeeess, thanks for this video 00. Love the hornet. If you'd ever consider making a video on the Halberd, I'd be over the moon.

This was a great breakdown, and a nerdy filled content in regards to jet engines.

Thanks for the breakdown of the hornet, Really liked it. Hope to see one of falcon and the sparrowhawk.

Love the vids. I would like to see a detailed dive into the UNSC elephant vehicle

15:48. It's important to keep in mind that this is a UNSC craft, although not operable in space the bird could still be transported through environment that are space like. In addition the unsc is aware of chemical attacks and probably pressurized the cabin in the event that oxygen would need to flow through the cabin in a chemical attach as such pressurization would further isolate the bird from the outside world

Always love these videos

i always love to see a new video.

I've always wondered why the unsc never had any 4 man transport version of these, and they can also beef that armor up a bit a little light for the type of vehicle it is

wow thats a lot of information I LOVE IT

17:30 so my guess as to the purpose of the third mystery engine is that it’s an APU or auxiliary power unit, a common piece of equipment on modern aircraft that is used to generate power and pressurization before the main engines are started. The pressurization also feeds the primary engines to allow them to start up at the time before their compressor blades are spinning fast enough to allow for ignition. It could also be possible that due to the small size of the primary engines, the APU in the hornet is designed to run continuously even after engine start for bleed air purposes including cabin pressurization and anti-ice equipment as well as being the primary generator for the aircraft. This is not the standard on real world modern aircraft, however modern aircraft also have much larger engines allowing more space for accessory housings such as the generator. Additionally, utilizing an APU for all bleed air functionality allows the engines to provide all their power towards thrust, something that is likely important for a VTOL aircraft especially with engines of that size.

That extra jet engine could also be in part to feed extra power to all systems some of the systems electrical. Modern C-130's and many other large logistical craft do have something similar. They call it an auxiliary power unit. And it's basically a micro turbine engine and it's job is to provide electricity for the air craft via whatever means a turbine engine can provide electricity. Having a separate power source than the main engines and batteries make sense. At any rate, an interesting video. Keep up the good work

How the hell do you not have more subs man you’re a beast 👏

Could you do a most detailed breakdown on the unsc saber spaceplane?

00, one video I would personally love to see is a MDB of the USS Enterprise CV-6 or USS Hornet CV-8. I'd also love to see a possible rewrite of Halo Season 1. Love the channel you, HiddenXperia, Halo Cannon and Eckharts Ladder really got me into Halo and I want to thank you from the bottom of my heart. Thank you, 00. As always find peace in the Domain.

The theoretical extra engine could also be for an APU in order to provide power for the craft.

Thanks!

ID love to see the falcon next

How would you feel about doing a breakdown for the Hawk? :D

Air Pressure is required above 10,000ft on Earth. Different habitable planets will have different atmospheric pressure so maybe they are just playing it safe so they don't realise the hard way haha

Love the hornet, so fun to use. Wish we got to see it more. Also wish we could get a gunship that could also be used for transport, something between a hornet and falcon.

the intakes in the body of the craft probably aren't for a jet engine for forward thrust but rather for an apu or auxiliary power unit, basically the part of an aircraft that provides electrical power when the engines meant for propulsion aren't actually operating such as during initial start up and shut down

Stanchion inbound, phenomenal news!

Very nice

New video pog

I know from my several hundred hours in Halo Wars and Halo Wars 2, That this is the scariest vehicle man has ever made, the UNSC Could've just sent thousands of these to deal with covenant ground forces

Perhaps next, CAS assault carriers, or the much larger, CSO super carriers.

I just realized: A possible reason for the Hornet to not be seen often is because it is powered by jet turbines. If the atmosphere around it doesn’t lend well to the design tolerances of what can be accepted as intake air, then I imagine it would be unable to function properly. This could be remediated by use of a dual-function, hybrid turbine and rocket engine, though this would severely increase weight, and the amount of time that a rocket powered hornet could remain in the air would be severely limited. On that note, Falcons would make a lot of sense for a much broader range of atmospheres. It seems the Falcon still is powered by turbines, but it can theoretically be modified to rotate its propellers using other means aside from a turbine engine.

Cheers! 💚

Idk if its just me but as a halo was super fan 2 vehicles id love to see get broken down are the sparrowhawk and the vulture. Hell even the grizzly id love to see.

Groovy

You should do a video of the pilot helmet from Reach

Conceivably the engines might not even burn fuel but use fusion to heat the air instead.

Knowing the Halo community, I'm pretty sure they could build a life-sized Hornet and Installation00 would literally break it down piece by piece to explain how it worked.

I think the intakes link to an apu, thus it's mostly for preflight and don't ad to the thrust

Glad James May enjoys Halo as much as i do

While it's probably not really necessary, given how advanced UNSC tech is, I might also suggest that the extra intakes on the sides of the hornet could be used to power the auxiliary power/startup engine, as well as possibly doubling as the drive motor for the rotary cannons and the theorized extra air ducts for the engines. Could you do all of that just with electric power? Sure. Could Hornets be powered by very small fusion reactors, similar to MJOLNIR but less expensive? Certainly. Just a thought I had

With the two side mounted grenade launchers, the hornet is a serious can of whoop ass

Been thinking a this vehicle and how much I miss it and what role it could play in infinite or future sandboxes. I really want to come back in infinite or some future game Great job as always

Ah Installation00, keeping my interest and hope in Halo alive video by video

I'm hoping that plasma grenade keychain comes with a sticky goo so I can go around sticking stuff

Whooooo.... It's finally happening

Can we plz get a falcon video? I love it with the front gun

I'm so heartbroken that the Hornet hasn't made an appearance in a mainline Halo game since 2007. I'd argue it's in the top 5 of most iconic Halo vehicles of all time, yet the last we've seen it (in a drivable state) was H2A multiplayer. Absolute injustice to such a glorious craft. Easily my very favorite vehicle in all of Halo.

Third jet is likely an always-on APU for operating the rest of the craft so the main engines don't have any extra load, just propulsion.

I want learn more about the UNSC Sparrowhawk

Nice Video, Is it possible to do a MDB of the Faclon variant of the hornet, that is seem most commonly in Halo Wars 1?

What was the one from reach that u get inside of at the beginning of the campaign that has like walls and gunner positions that swiveled depending on where you looked? Was that a variation of the hornet of was that campaign exclusive?

Pelican review please sir!!

The jet intake on the side of the fuselage could be simply an APU similar to modern jets.

why it says no stream, tap to retry

it should be noted that helicopters are moving back towards using centrifugal compressors, but with a small axial stage ahead of it, due to the shorter length requirements

You can watch RvB Season 9 There is an amazing scene with the Hornet and a badass Group of ODST

The Hornet was air dominance in H3 and ODST. Many love the falcon but in multiplayer it needed passengers while the hornet didnt but i want to give you all an idea: one falcon and two hornets. There would be too much firepower i think.

Tandem hornet seats are likely trainers

What doing a most detailed breakdown of the scarabs in the series?

Sparrowhawk next please

If those are air intakes on the side of the cabin they are probably feeding some form of auxiliary power unit. Which most jet powered aircraft have to power the electronics while prepping the aircraft Without burning excessive amounts of fuel with the main engines

Yo you gotta do a falcon video mannn

Is there a possibility of getting a detailed breakdown of the Wasp in the future?

Its possible the third jet is used to start the other two and to provide power generation to the hornet to power the equipment.

I have to say I love and miss the hornet nothing really can replace it.

Love all your breakdowns man. However, I am still waiting on the VK78 Commando rifle breakdown. Perhaps a fast pass over the Halo Infinite UNSC weapons? A single video for all the new introductions like the Commando? Just a though, and will keep watching your channel even if that particular one never comes to be.

Breakdown of the m73 light machine gun and mak5 BR down the road?

2010: Halo fans play Halo games 2022: Halo fans watch Installation00 videos and reminisce

Always wondered why don't they have people use game controllers to fly aircraft? I know some unmanned vehicles do but awkwardly flying aircraft like helicopters seem like it would simplify flying. Like going from a standard car to an automatic one

Would the two seated variant not be a trainer unit?
