Concorde! For those interested, there are articles on the web that describe how in 1985, British Airways offered Concorde to be used in NATO intercept trials using F-15 Eagles, F-16 Fighting Falcons, Grumman F-14 Tomcats, Dassault Mirages, and F-104 Starfighters to converge on Concorde on a stern intercept course. Only the English Electric Lightning was able to successfully do so, specifically Lightning XR749, which was described as "a hot ship, even for a Lightning."

I've flown on Concorde. At one point when we hit Mach 2.2, the captain said "not even the fastest jet aircraft can catch us now" It was a weird feeling when he turned the afterburners off as we were cruising supersonic. Felt like the brakes came on and the noise stopped!

I think they were retired a little to early. If they were around now, with newer electronics, engines, materials, i could picture them being flown heavy by the middle eastern airlines, like out of dubai, they can afford to fly on these things and would be willing to. Newer engines could allow supercruise or make it so they dont boom over commercial areas.

WAIT WHAT, I CHECKED AND F15's TOP SPEED IS MACH TWO??? NO FUCKING WAYYY THATS SO COOL

Actually the pilots don't have to call someone if they detect a submarine as P-3 Orion carries torpedoes.

The mad is basically a big metal detector. Subs would have to be fairly shallow for it to be effective...don't remember the exact depth, but around no more than 100' depth or so. On exercises the AW operator would scream out "MAD,MAD,MAD!!!" when he got a spike...and depending on what we were doing I would drop a smoke marker. Never got a Mad hit when we chased Soviets, mostly as all the ones we were chasing were at depth. Thanks for having the P-3 in this one, brings back memories (Obviously not of F-22's forming up on us...LOL.....Though we did get a very close intercept by a Taiwanese A-4 that was like 10 feet away and a bit lower to the port wing. Also had a number of Us aircraft form up with us. Good times...and I was much younger and skinnier. :)

A stream of fire lances its wing seconds later, sending it tumbling into oblivion. "What in the hell just happened?" Then you see it. "Oh, F22"

Cool to see Concorde on here! I remember going to see its final landing at Filton Airfield as a kid.

Fun fact: The P-3 is also the plane of choice for NOAA Hurricane Hunters. It's heavily modified and isn't exactly the same as the Navy ones though.

When I was younger and worked at Pearson Intl Airport (Toronto, Canada) I would see the Concorde come in. Actually drove up beside it once... it wasn't as big as you would think! Very sleek and cool looking. Watching it take off was another thing as well - took a long time to get off the runway, dragging its butt slowly while climbing with engines glowing, lots of smoke and noise! I am glad I was alive back then to see that - it was impressive and many of us that worked at the airport stopped what we were doing to watch it take off... every time!

My dude seriously just divebombed a ship, in a Raptor, with an unguided AMRAAM

I've only watched the first part so far, the Raptor isn't even off the ground yet, and I can already tell I'm gonna LOVE this one!!!

Seeing the P-3 in this mission brought back some great memories. I grew up in Mountain View, California and Moffett Field had a large fleet of P-3 Orions stationed there during the early years of my childhood. They would fly 24 hours a day in a constant looping pattern. I miss those days and the P-3 is one of my all time favorite planes. Loved seeing it here.

GS is slowly creating the F/A-22

“Would you intercept me? I’d intercept me….”

the aircraft code was G-BOAC. British overseas airways corporation was BOAC and the first they orderd was this one, iirc. The Beatles - Back in the USSR has this aircraft covered in the song.

I love watching you operate with the Raptor. The procedure was a success!

Cheers GS. Loving the F-22 videos as always👊

That Air Base in the beginning has some crazy aircraft lol. Truly the stuff of nightmares for the enemy.

Great shooting Tex. The precision on removing wings off planes is outstanding. Great vid as usual.

If the P-3 finds a sub and wants to turn it into an artificial reef, they can handle the job themselves; they carry torpedoes.

That secondary explosion on the ship looked to be a boiler explosion given it's location midship. Fragmentation penetration in a 600psi plant would released steam instantly, and no fire from it. Everyone was boiled alive near it. Wow, ruined their day.

Dude GS that base ur flying out of is the most powerful and destructive thing ever conceived.

That P-3 doesn't need to call you or anyone else to dust off a sub... it can haul >20000lbs of ordinance.. including nuke torpedos.

Gotta love GS in the F22.......it's so fun to watch him play with his food.......

Those were some incredible shots of the concorde

MAD system monitors the earth's magnetic field, subs are made of steel which is magnetic, so the earths magnetic field would be attracted/concentrated through the sub's hull. The MAD system looks for these more concentrated magnetic fields which would be something the ASW crew would investigate further... as I understand it anyway.
