I'd really like to see what an A-10 Warthog would do in the same situation
-
There is a Sci-fi story about a jet fighter going back to WWI. Its radar couldn't pick up the wood frames of the biplanes and its heat seeking missiles couldn't detect the exhaust of the planes gas engines. Getting enough purified kerosene was difficult also. The pilot discovered he could destroy enemy aircraft by fly past them at supersonic speeds and letting the shockwave tear apart the fragile airframes.

F-22: ‘I fear no man. But that… Thing. It scares me.’ Fokker: ‘Hello!’
-
"That would take down the fattest Foker the germans put on the sky" got me on the floor
-
Honestly the simple act of breaking the sound barrier low over the German offensive would have been devastating. A sonic boom back then is a weapon by itself.
-
The SR71 was first flown only ~60 some years after the wright brothers took flight. Imagine what they would think of it.
-
The radar would have no problem picking up the old planes. The frame might not retun a lot of radar, but the big metal engine mounted to the front would present a huge target. Heat seaking missle can lock onto the heat of aircraft skin, so locking into a hot air cooled engine wouldn't be an issue. Though it still wouldn't have any effect on the war.

I don’t think it’d be impossible to figure out how to work an f-22, or a ufo in our time. Making them from scratch would take as long as it did the first time round but seeing it alone gives a vague breath of ideas on how to recreate them, but having the chance to get hands on with either of them would cause a huge exponential growth in understanding of it’s tech
-
Imagine an AC 130. Now that would do some damage and turn a pivotal battle easily.
-
the word play on Fokker in this episode had me cracking up,. lol love it
-
"Since we're not the modern Russian army, let's talk logistics" 😂😂😂 oh my god that KILLED me
-
3:05 that joke caught me off guard 😂
-
"Since we're not the modern Russian army, let's talk logistics" man, that was savage. I love it.
-
Reminds me of that 80's movie The Final Countdown, where the aircraft carrier USS Nimitz goes through a time portal and ends up in 1941 just before the attack on Pearl Harbor, so the crew try and prevent it from happening. When the Japanese witness the future jets in a dogfight they can't believe the Americans were so technologically advanced. Really cool concept.
-
Nobody: F-22 : Would you intercept me? I’d intercept me.
-
Thanks for the video it is very cool and I would hope you come out with more videos like this in the future
-
Now what if a modern tank found its way onto the battlefields of WWI.
-
My initial thought when I saw this was "it would run out of fuel and be useless... But let's see what kind of military power fantasy they came up with". Was pleasantly surprised to see a realistic approach was taken.
-
It wouldn't need stealth in WW1. It also wouldn't need to communicate with any other planes. And it wouldn't need any maintenance. It would have whatever fuel and ammunition it appeared with, which would be used, and then the plane would be grounded and useless. It would have one mission. And if that mission is the right mission, it could make a huge difference in the war. You wouldn't use it to shoot down enemy planes. You would use it to destroy high value targets.
