Sustained flight or short-term burst? Can pilots even handle that level of g force?
@throngcleaver
Ай бұрын
@Sunopeek Sustained flight. There are no additional G-forces for straight and level flight, other than the one G from gravity. High G-forces in aircraft come from high-rate turns and high-rate pull ups and push overs, and to a lesser extent, rapid acceleration. G loading is a function of velocity and turn radius, so the faster the aircraft, the larger the turn radius needs to be, to maintain a given G load.

The F-15 modifications from the original concept which made it the most successful fighter in history was the result of the very controversial American aviation genius John Boyd. Boyd also created the extraordinary plan to defeat Saddam Hussein's forces. General Schwarzkopf was ordered to follow this plan to encircle and capture the entire enemy army. The general screwed it up but the plan still succeeded. There are several books about John Boyd detailing his rocky journey to create the first effective science based aviation combat research which is the basis for all modern air combat.

Ear tjat before from someone in the air force right after highschool, but as i understood what he said was that was officially as released to the public it never left the ground, but all the pilots and ground crews in the USAF had heard through rumors and grapvine that it flew so fast that it couldn't fire heat seakers cuz theyd lock on to it and to keep the missiles from tracking it they had to roll to the side and pull back hard on the stick at a certain high rate of speed to create enough distance fast enough with the heat seekers of that time from switching from what it was supposed to be locked onto to the plane because the engines higher heat made the missle switch to tracking rhe plane. And he said most of the pilots couldn't handle the gforce of separation, so they had to slow down to slower than the missiles top speed fire turn and floor it to keep from being shot down which was one reason why it never made it to production

@spikenomoon That was an F-11 Tiger, not an F-111. An F-111 crashed because the retractable M61 rotary cannon kept slow firing after retracting it on a diving gun run, so they extended it back out.

It's funy you would disqualify the Mig-31 as "interceptor", while not disqualifying the A-12 that was not even close to being a fighter. Your bias is blinding you. Mig-31 is the fastest fighter in service on the planet and it's been the top dog for decades. @@Unclesamswingman

Seeing how I have not said a word about the A-12 and the YF-12 was the plane capable of Mach 3 and firing missiles I would consider it a interceptor and the mig-31 is not maneuverable and has very large engines and has big air to air missiles it is a interceptor and I’m not saying it’s a bad plane Im just saying it is not a fighter
