New Zealand Girl Reacts to 50 Insane Fighter Jets Facts That Will Shock You!!!! 

Hey Court. As an fyi, vertical take-off/landing for jets is very old technology. First developed in the late 1950's-1960's by Hawker in Great Britain. Prototypes were made and by 1969, the Hawker 'Harrior" was in service for the RAF and also the US Marine Corps. Many variants of this jet have been made over these many decades. Too my knowledge, there are still some in service for the US Marine Corps. My father was a massive fan of all types of aircraft. He took us to many airshows in the late 60's and all through the 1970's in Dayton, and Cleveland, Ohio. I have many fond memories of these trips especially the first time an airshow in Cleveland had a Hawker 'Harrior'. Not only was it there for all to walk up to it and check it out, but they flew it and showed off all its' capabilities including vertical take-off/landing, rotating while hovering 40 feet of the ground, etc. It instantly became my favorite jet!!

01:30 Yes, the Air National Guard jets that were sent to intercept Flight 93 had no missiles and minimal machinegun ammo. The plan was to ram the airliner before contact with the final target. The pilots never had to make that sacrifice because the passengers and crew fought the terrorists for control of the aircraft and forced the plane down in Pennsylvania.

I’ll have to look into that SR-71, looks like a really cool aircraft.

Short story. I worked with a former SR71 mechanic who told me that the Japanese were enthralled with the plane. He stated that they put a tail emblem on a plane and it only flew once and on return the emblem was change. A few weeks later he was on leave in Japan and saw a model in a store window with the emblem on it for sale.

I was working at a USAF base on 9/11, I vividly remember a complete shutdown of all aircraft in the US! The "Boneyard" in Arizona, has many US military planes, for backup. The great movie "The Right Stuff" is about the early supersonic pilots and Mercury astronauts.

For a list that's supposed to be about "fighter jets", they spend an awful lot of time on the SR-71 & U-2, two aircraft that were never capable of carrying any weapons.

He talks about the F-4 yet has an animation of an F-35. Certified bruh moment Edit: ok a lot of incorrect models of aircraft

14 seconds, like automatic!

yeah courtney, i was always told to eat lots of carrots because bunnies have good eyesight and they eat a lot of carrots.

Love watching your vids! If I can make a suggestion, you should check out and react to the battle of 73 easting by the infographics show. It is the greatest tank battle in history where US M1 abrams tank first combat mission and that battle is why the abrams tank became legendary around the world. It is the last great tank battle of the 20th century that had US forces against Iraq's elite republican guard forces.

🤣🤣🤣🤣The Russian that stole the German that shot him down plane .....hysterical 🤣🤣🤣🤣

Lmao. Now you know where eating carrots is good for your eyes came from.

So much has been said about the F-22 and F-35 that an ignorant person will immediately believe that these tares are fantastic. But there is one "but". On both aircraft, the stealth coating begins to peel off after afterburner. Therefore, there is an order for pilots to turn on the afterburner only in case of emergency and for a short time (10-20 seconds). The maintenance of these aircraft is tens or more times more expensive than that of other aircraft. An interesting fact: American pilots have never accepted an offer to conduct a demonstration battle against Russian colleagues at any air show. Americans - on American planes, Russians - on Russian ones. The Americans have always refused. And if you want to know what they were against - here are 2 videos from the air show: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-dDsK6RQjwxA.html ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-Jks6TTFsglk.html hight attention from 6:25

Yo Courtney, love the vids, today's vid was awesome, you are an amazing youtuber, with an amazing channel, can I ask you 2 quick questions?

Check out the X=15. Top speed Mach 6.70 or 4520 mph & 354,200 ft. (numbers vary depending on the source). It's essentially a manned rocket. There is a movie (X-15 (1961)) narrated by Jimmy Stewart and features Mary Tyler Moore in her 1st film, Charles Bronson & others.

SR-71 is the ultimate plane, While now "retired" the SR-72 is on the way. :)

That's Not What An F-15 Looks Like!! The Image Shown Is That Of An F/A-18E/F Super Hornet!!

During the Cold War there were B-52 Nuclear Bombers in the air 24/7. Flying circler patterns in the USA. Waiting for the orders to go.

As much as you seem to love the jet fighter planes you just need to come to America and join our military! They'd love to have someone like you in the F-35 or the A-10. I always make it a point to watch all your military reaction videos! They're great watching your excited reactions to the equipment the military has to offer from aircraft carrier to tanks. Keep up the great work! You're the best.

Lot of good info here. Especially the stuff about Chuck Yeager. BTW, did you see your Dolphins this weekend? Big comeback win!

Growing up in America….My parents, grandparents, everyone always said Carrots are good for your eyes (then id dunk my carrot in ranch and eat a vegetable lol…how they got us kids to eat “healthier” lol)

Just wanted to say. The military named the SR-71, RS-71. When President Johnson announced the jet, to the world, he messed up and called it the SR-71. Military decide to call it that, so the president did not look foolish, besides, it did sound smother than RS-71.

I believe that this video is a bit out of date. The F-35 has no oxygen problem. That was solved more than a few years ago. Also, not EVERY F-35 can take off vertically (VTOL), just the F-35B. There is the regular (as regular as a F-35 can be) model F35A, used by the Air Force(s), and a F35C naval model for carrier use.

5:27 they talki about F-15 but they show a F-18

The carrot rumor is pretty funny. 🥕 Too bad the Brits didn’t use a more disgusting food group just for fun.

Unless I'm under some misunderstanding, the f-35 is not the only plane that can land vertically. The British harrier jet can take off and land vertically. The Americans created their own version of the harrier jet which is, what I think they model for the f-35. My other curiosity is the Russian plane that he said had such a wide vector that it could perform unbelievable stunts, the f-35 rear Jets can point straight down. I wonder if American manufacturers can come up with such a dramatic vectoring on American planes to give them equal or better turn capabilities

I'm afraid, Courtney that you still don't know about some of these 'facts'. I was doing aerodynamic engineering in college & I heard the plane so fast it ran into it's own bullets. It can be done in a certain way but not the way it was always told & shown in this video. And it doesn't even have to be that fast. The SU-35 is made to sound just like the brochure from Sukhoi. So none should be shot down in Ukraine, right? 🤣

Is there anything more you could learn about fighter jets? 😂

The channel _The History Guy_ has a very good short video on "pilotless planes" including the MiG-23 mentioned here. Search: The History Guy Three planes that flew themselfs He also have a video with the correct story about the F-11 that "shot itself down". Search: The History Guy Three planes that shot themself down

I'm surprised that you've not done a reaction to HM Queen Elizabeth II funeral considering you love all the Military things

6:33 The X-1 does not look like that and it's not a jet, it's a a rocket engine-powered aircraft

@Courtney Coulston about number 49, one of the fighter pilots, a woman, has her own RU-vid channel, and she said that she and her wingman were the first two pilots in the sky on 9/11. She was to ram the tail section of any hijacked passenger jet, and her wingman was to ram the cockpit. And both of them were good with those instructions. I would link her channel, but I unfortunately did not pay attention to the channel name.

There are a whole bunch of 2022 drum corps videos available now that the season has ended. Are you still interested?

Why couldn't the video show actual pictures and footage of the planes? That would make it better.

Courtney, the F35 B has the ability that shocked you (Vertical Take-off and you can see an in-depth video here by searching RU-vid for : US F-35 Showing Its Insane Capability During Vertical Take-Off

I can't speak for everywhere in the USA, however I'm from Philly and that is geographically located close to all three attack locations so I most likely would've heard about the second fact if it was known by even a small population, but no... this was the first I heard about these unarmed fighter jets. It was a very impactful day, but when it happened, communication was not as universal as it is today so it's cool that 21 years later, thanks to the internet, I am still hearing stories about unsung heroism.

You should listen to Bluecoats 2022 Dci show

1971 indian air destroyed pakistani f 4 fantom by mig 21 😂😂..

You should react to The darkest scandal in nfl history paid to kill

There are 3 models of the F-35... The F-35A, F-35B, and F-35C. That's Air force, USMC, and Navy. Only the B for the USMC has VTOL capability

2:15 they talk about a mig 23 but it's not

When are we getting married? Signed, America

If you go to her Discord or Twitch, she LOVES pigeons! Let her know you read her comments section by commenting "coo... cooo..." (just kidding.)

7:12 those are not Syrian fighters those are F-22 Raptor from USA.

5:19 they talk about F-14 but they show F-16

My mom tricked me

The X-15 is the fastest plane ever created... it reached Mach 6.7

React to more DCI!!!!!!!

Can you do a reaction to u.s. testing it's super advacned 1billion drone on aircraft carrier

The bit about a plane "shooting itself" makes no sense in physics. Do you realize that people who live near the equator are traveling through space at a bit over a thousand miles per hour? Do they feel it? Of course not! That's because they have the same momentum as the surface of the earth at whatever point they are located so their net "speed" is zero! Back to the jet. As the plane gains speed so does the pilot and every other part of the plane. When not accelerating or decelerating ALL parts of the traveling plane is at rest/zero. Lets say the muzzle velocity of the bullet when fired is around 3,000 ft.sec. so THAT is it's speed when it leaves the plane, NOT zero or less. If it hits something nearby it hits it at it at about the same 3,000 ft./sec. If it hits something stationary, say close by and on the ground, then it's speed will be the COMBINED speed of the plane PLUS the speed of the bullet. The only way it could hit the plane is if it miraculously turned around and went straight back to the plane. VERY unlikely.

Please react to a lazerpig video I beg of you (it will change your life,)

Pakistani F 16 shoot down by indian mig 21 baison.. 60 s mig 21.. Sorry 🤣🤣😁😁

Yes reaction girl just panic 😂 yes this us fact history Russia just insane 🥰,,, agiane Russia just love ❤❤❤ 🇷🇺

This video is all about the American fighter planes not about the fighters jet around the world....what's the point...🤷🤷

It's showing 5 views and I'm the 8th like

Hi

Hi Courtney!!! :) First to comment!!! :D

reacting on wapons..react on our hindu godss.and get ur real life

Dont like that channel. A lot of the facts are not that intersting. And would be a lot nicer if the graphics would show the actual jet they were talking about instead of a random plane.
