When SR-71 Flew So Fast That F-15 Eagle’s Radar Couldn’t See It In 1980s #shorts

. A vlog by the YouTube channel named in the video’s upper left corner and serves as the original blog post for this content.

In the 1980s, to give the US Navy’s F-14 Tomcats, and the US Air Force’s F-15 Eagles practice locating, following, locking on, intercepting, and simulating the firing of the F-14’s and F-15’s sophisticated Aim-54 Phoenix and Aim-7 Sparrow missiles at a high altitude, high speed target, the SR-71 Blackbird flew “Tomcat Chase” and “Eagle Bait” sorties with them. The intercepts were done in an extremely regulated environment, which enabled the fighter jets to succeed. American fighter pilots were only capable of securing a lock on the SR-71 after the Blackbird crew switched off its protective countermeasures. Even under these carefully regulated flight conditions, the SR-71 was moving so fast that the F-14s and F-15s had severe difficulty achieving an effective SR-71 kill. Unless the SR-71 was damaged, it was nearly impossible to get a lock on it. A speed barrier at 1500 knots was visible on the F-15 Eagle’s radar, while the SR-71 was comfortably cruising between 1850 and 2000 knots, thus, the Blackbird was literally nonexistent for the F-15 Eagles.

Note from Zennie62Media and
Zennie62Blog.com : this video-blog post demonstrates the full and live operation of the latest updated version of an experimental Zennie62Media , Inc. mobile media video-blogging system network that was launched June 2018. This is a major part of Zennie62Media , Inc.’s new and innovative approach to the production of news media. What we call “The Third Wave of Media”. The uploaded video is from a YouTube channel. When the video is “liked” by Zennie62 YouTube, then it is automatically uploaded to and formatted automatically at the Zennie62Blog.com site and Zennie62-created and owned social media pages. The overall objective here, on top of our is smartphone-enabled, real-time, on the scene reporting of news, interviews, observations, and happenings anywhere in the World and within seconds and not hours – is the use of the existing YouTube social graph on any subject in the World. Now, news is reported with a smartphone and also by promoting current content on YouTube: no heavy and expensive cameras or even a laptop are necessary, or having a camera crew to shoot what is already on YouTube. The secondary objective is faster, and very inexpensive media content news production and distribution. We have found there is a disconnect between post length and time to product and revenue generated. With this, the problem is far less, though by no means solved. Zennie62Media is constantly working to improve the system network coding and seeks interested content and media technology partners.
