@Military Machine I'm the one that made your video famous;)

30 for 30

30 for 30 to easy...

Your quiz was a little too easy. When showing the Tupolev, the other alternatives were clearly not Soviet/Russian, so it kind of gave it away. But the video was fun.

Pretty easy tbh

Yea

Guilty as charged... My son who reports to Basic in a couple of months was shocked as I answered them all before any answers came up and told him a snippet of something about the plane

that happened to me

I love airplanes and and I only got 3 wrong

ikr, it’s like a 5-10 second head start

I mean... That probably IS the official nickname although 'Warthog' is more uh... publicly mentioned. It's like Viper for the F-16 Fighting Falcon or Fat Amy for the F-35 Lightning II...

I noticed that the popular names were used on many aircraft here, like Aardvark for the F-111. Interesting, though that they used "Fighting Falcon" for the F-16, whereas many, if not most of their pilots used the name "Viper", as that was the most popular name in the naming competition at the time of its introduction. The USAF decided against it, as that was the name of the fighters in "Battlestar Galactica", and went with the name of the athletic teams for the USAF Academy in Colorado Springs, instead.

True, and that F/A-18 Hornet is actually an F/A-18E Super Hornet.

@@vfa-31tomcatters27 Early versions of the F-18 are now called "Legacy Hornets."

@@gordonbergslien30 That's a nickname. Official designation still is F/A-18C Hornet. Just like how the Super Hornet is called the Rhino.

Hold on…..if you removed the choices….you’d of known that was a Tigershark vs. Tiger? If so, congrats! I had a plotter printed F-20 in my dorm room…no way I’d of discerned the two.

@@BD-qq4fn Well, it's the exact same plane, just a few updates... Just like they didn't ask us to identify which version of any of the other models. I agree the choices were way too easy; all but a few of them I knew before the first option came up, then the options were mostly obvious. They should have at least made the options similar looking, or at least in year. Like the tankers, if it's got a refueling boom and it's the only KC option that pretty well gives it away!

I was at Seymour Johnson in North Carolina from 1981-1985. I was a bomb loader on the F4E. I got a ride before I got out. It was an amazing experience.

didnt show the thunder bolt or warhawk either

You need to get some fresh air

Same here lol.

me too except the c17 and im literally 13

@@abmong Fuck nah

@@godover100same but im 15 and got 30/30 I need to touch grass after this

Sir, my score was also 29 out of 30...also miss the SUKHOI SU-57...also non military ...also a plane model builder...but 67 years old!

30 out of 30... The SU-57 was just a lucky guess. 60 years old, non-military, too.

Me too. What pissed me off was that I first picked the SU-57 but changed my mind and went with the SU-34!

That's the same one I missed. 63. Haven't built models in many decades but did serve for 22 years. Was not surprised I missed a Russian designation. Given how they fly and fight they should change that star to a bullseye.

That was the one I was unsure of but guessed the 57 over the other Sukhoi choice as it looked a bit more advanced.

That's so cool sir 😀😀

same here, lol!!!

bruh same here (also i'm colombian💀)

Me too.

Yeah, way too easy.

I also got most when the picture showed up

The first ones were pretty easy especially the B-29

Me too. I even scored the SU57

Unless you’re a real nerd, it just goes from peaceful to easy

Too EZ😂

@@Lieutenant_Matrixgod dammit that’s what I was going to say

​@@Lieutenant_Matrixyour talking about me i love air crafts

@@A10_warthog_official a10_warthog_official... you sure you like planes?

AIR WARRIORS?!?!??! YEEEESSSSSSS

The f18 is literally exactly what i said. I could tell by the rectangular intakes

Actually it was an F/A-18 E, becuase it was a single seater.

yes, but F/A-18 can be used as normal designation, as the E/F is pretty much a "upgrade" to the C/D's and it is not in fact a F model. the F's are the twin, tandem, ones with a WSO in the back

Yeah I had some trouble with that one, but my logic said that that's a slower aircraft and as such would be a good trainer. Then I noticed the "T" designation.

Yes I was borderlline Banshee for a moment but it didn't seem beefy enough to me. I have an old 1950s Observer book of aircraft which helps with some really early jets and late props.

TFOA *maybe ??*

My dad was stationed at Eielson AFB at the time of that incident. It happened a total of 3 times. I witnessed one of the incidents when I was 10 years old (1979). The issue arises from the landing gear lever being 4 inches from the lever that released the tip tanks, it was a very easy mistake to make. One of the aircraft involved in one of the mishaps is on permanent static display in front of the airport in Kenai, Alaska.

I was at Eielson 1987 to 1990. We had ov10 broncos and A-10s at that time.

@@jaycooper2812 That's some good follow up information, I am assuming you know about Lady of the Lake as well, I was there 12/79 through 4/83, loved it there.

@@mikebennett9356 The Hogs came in while I was there, I inspected the TOSS (Target Optical Scoring System) at Blair Lakes. I wasn't aware ot the OV10 being there but knew they brought in the F-16 later

I always thought Prowler was the designation for EA-18s. Do you know what the designation for those are? I guess I could google it but it's more interesting to hear about it from people that know what they're talking about

@@ChickentNug I think the designation for EA-18s are Growlers.

I dont know buddy my 13 year old son got 28/30, but still good to see some love towards the old husband.

Idk, this is easy af

Wait, you bought him books? I'm 17, this year (2023, and happy new year by the way) and I got all of these right, which only 2 on a whim as I got distracted, but I should mention that I sped this by 2x.

Can we just let this be a wholesome comment?

I made the same mistake

At first I thought it was the TBF avenger but it wasnt an option so I went with t-6

@@Lieutenant_Matrix Harvard everywhere else.

or show smaller portions of the airplanes or from more oblique angles, that sort of thing

Oppure per farla veramente difficile fare solo con le sagome nere. Solo i profili. Allora li ti voglio vedere. 😅😅😅 =/\=

yeah like "F-86A-5, F-86-F2, F-86-F40" (one is the first sabre, one is an experimental version with 20mm cannons instead of MGs, one is the export variant)

How about B-29, B-50 and I think there was another variant the B-54. I don't know what you'd use for the fourth option. Or all three Globemasters plus something else.

Tupolev Tu-4 coupled with the B-29! 😁

Thanks you for you service.

also, B is for bomber, E is for electronic warfare like the EA-18 Growler, Y is for prototype if i'm not wrong

@@anonymjet4436 y is for prototype and x is also for prototypes that aren’t meant for service, testbeds for new weapons etc

@@captain_bubbles9142 Ah, i see, thanks for the insight 😁

C for cargo, X for experimental (prototype), P for maritime patrol (p for patrol), SR for strategic reconnaissance, T for trainer, UAV for unmanned aerial vehicle, MQ for multi role drone, RQ means reconnaissance drone, P for pursuit but nowadays after WW2 it is F for fighter, etc. Also CF like CF-188 or CF-18 (Canadian F-18) stands for Canadian Fighter. Also many other contries that make there own planes or variants of other planes don’t have F for fighter or C for cargo in front of there name, they will have the first couple or few words of the plane manufacture like the SU-57 is SU for Sukhoi, MIG-15 is for Mikoyan Gurevich, TU-95 is for Tupolev, or they don’t even have numbers like most European fighters like Eurofighter Typhoon and Panvania Tornado.

Same, I only got 29 out of 30 though

Same I also got 100%

Same here

I got 26/30 I didn't know much about the older planes mostly the classic bombers and cargo planes,

I got 29/30, only one I missed was the t-33

The banshee looks nothing like it, it is almost double the size and it is blue with two engines and if you think it looks similar because of the outer wing fuel tanks than there is a pretty big gap between the two, they do not have what look like winglets

By that logic the Jet Provost T5 is also similar!

Yep right up till I seen the USAF markings.

Banshee is Navy Marines jet Shooting star is Air Force The horizontal fins of the tail of Banshee is high up while the ones of Shooting Star is more like conventional position. The last thing is Banshee painted in blue black Shooting star has the metal shiny aluminum finish skin.

@@rock3times Thank you! That's helpful.

Not a T6 Harvard ?

@@steverpcb Canadians call it the Harvard, Americans call it the Texan…

Lie all his life as navy😅😅😅

Iam also get 30 but ididnt worked on airforce🖐🏼️

Dido! And would do it again in a minute! Cheers

23 yrs in the Air Force in fuels, so I got up close and personal with a lot of those aircraft. I got 29 out of the 30.

Well I managed to get 6 wrong but I wasn't in the airforce nor am l an aircraft nerd

Got all of them

same same..I was a EWSS tech myself on FB-111 with the occasional buff check when the flew in.

Same. The only one I missed was mistaking the warhawk for the spitfire

@@jw9737 At first glance I almost made that error as well, but I looked at the wings to see the RAF symbol

Same Former F-16 Crew Chief here. Also Air Force Brat. 30/30

Did national service in the RDAF air base air defence at Værløse (radio operator with a 40 mm Bofors AA unit). Never worked with aircraft before or since - exept for plastic kits. 30/30. I guess they did an OK job of teaching me aircraft recognition.

im saying, I've devoted my life to everything aviation, i got 30-30 and im extremely proud of myself, if only I could be this good in school XD

well i always get a 77% in math exams.

same bro, i guessed f2a but realised that it wasn't. didnt look like a trainer plane to me

My first guess was the P-80 shooting star but the T-33 shooting star, ig it was just the training variant

Bro the t33 was the easiest one for me lol

@@jeancarson4648 don’t be rude

@@jeancarson4648lol

i took 0, 2 for the hard ones

yeah mixing in cargo and kc fuel carriers made it easy

What part of the video was that?

Me too

You had to ID aircraft by sound? What did you do in the military?

I was thinking the same thing!

It’s not possible to guess the modification of aircraft because they almost have same look

@@heisenb3rg662 You absolutely can tell very quickly from external indicators the differences between: F-16A Block 1, 5, 10 vs 15 F-16A vs F-16AM F-16C Block 30 vs F-16C Block 40 F-16C Block 40 vs F-16CM Block 40 Block 40 vs 50 A-10A vs A-10C F-4E vs F-4G F-15C vs F-15C with APG-63(V)3 AESA F-15A vs F-15J F-5A vs F-5E F-14A vs F-14B vs F-14D F/A-18C vs F/A-18E Typhoon vs Typhoon FGR4 Su-27SM vs Su-35S etc.

I found myself trying to do this, particularly with the Spitfire. I think it's a Mk6 ~ early / mid war, perhaps early '42. It has the B wing, it has a slightly larger tail, (so it's not a mk 1) but not the pointed one for a Mk9, or later so... They had an F/A 18 but you couldn't see the intakes, which is my prime give away.... I think it's a legacy Hornet. The Mustang was a D model, because the A B and C had the 1940 style canopy. The D had the perspex bubble and the tail fin extension because of the cut down rear fuselage.

@@Kneedragon1962 Biggest giveaway on Baby vs Super Bugs is the LERXs. Super Bug LERXs are huge. Then the intakes. Supers are squared while Legacy are round.

Ok, If you were to look a bit more closely, you would see that the C-130 is actually an AC-130, because the recoilless cannon is sticking out in the back.

The USAF marking was the giveaway. The Banshee was a Navy fighter.

T6 Texan was one of the easiest !! very distinct nothing else like it !!

I got the T6 immediately because it was the first aircraft I ever went flying in. Always get a few goosebumps when I see one of them. (Got 29 out of 30, BTW, and would have gotten 30 except that I second guessed myself on one.)

Same here that was the only one I have'nt seen. I have worked on the F111,F16,KC135,F15,F4 and the EF111.

Me too.

Also 29/30, Texan fail 😉

Thankd for the admission, makes me feel a little better because i did the same thing.

If the Su-57 or J-20 appear in U.S. skies we are in deep trouble!

@@gordonbergslien30 Kinda depends on why they're there, wouldn't it?

@@hayzeuscrust4517 dude i did the same thing!

Same here

I would say the most iconic is the a-10

@@dylanclaesgens8394 The A-10 is an attack aircraft, not a fighter. The "A" in A-10 stands for attacker while the "F" in F-15 stands for fighter. Attack aircraft are designed to take out ground targets rather then engage in aerial combat like fighters.

I think the F-22 is more iconic, and a bit easier since it’s pretty distinct from other aircraft, while the F-15 shares a general shape of some other aircraft

@@max2ube907 But that's why I regard the F-15 as canonical because it shares features of multiple other fighters all in one plane!

True

P-80's, later redesignated F-80's, were powered by fuel-guzzling first generation turbojets. Out of necessity, they were equipped with 165 gallon tip tanks very early in their service life. Later, 235 gallon tanks were mounted. In fact, it was uncommon to see the a/c w/o tip tanks. (Source: Shooting Star, T-bird & Starfire by Rhodes Arnold)

Almost correct, the t33 was based on the p80/f80. The designation didn't change it was a two seat trainer vs a single seat fighter.

thats what got me man, i just didnt decide any cause i only know it as the f-80

The P80 was redesignated F80 and was a single seat fighter-bomber. The T33 wasn’t a redesignation, but a purpose-built two sear trainer version (not a conversion) of the same airframe.

It was also the first Skunk Works plane, iirc

Me?

Fr I’m doing good thx to that

Im an war Thunder Player and I actually got everything right lol
