Sounds like the narrator knows how to suppress flutter.

I like how the cowboy says "data acquisition," very western.

Lol, media department had a little fun with that one.

Like "The Right Stuff" intro. Interesting stuff for sure. I've encountered flutter with my rc wings. Small scale resolution was to minimize unwanted control surface micro movements.

Epic narrator voice ever

Coming soon to a theater near you.

Felt like watching some 90's Spielberg's movie !

My God! The Kraken has attacked real life now! Run!

Awesome! This will probably be very useful for my dissertation on MPC Design For Active Flutter Suppression

Seeing the thing start fluttering Cracks me up every time 😂

“We already have the means to travel among the stars, but these technologies are locked up in black projects and it would take an act of God to ever get them out to benefit humanity….. anything you can imagine we already know how to do.” Ben Rich, former Head of the Lockheed Skunk Works

Congrats MUTT for achieving the X-plane designation. Another successful instance of Lockheed Martin's internal research and development aligning with the USA's interests, as well as advancing the global state of aeronautics.

The guy's voice who is narating the video sounds epic xD

call now and you get the second one for 50% off

I still want one!:D You sir, have a kick ass job!!!

Lockheed always had a cutting-edge way of thinking with aerodynamic issues like vertical stability issue of the F-117 cute fix

Good research and development.

Improved technology have brought us a long way, and the new drones must incorporate some of those features when built, and the DOD must love the new drones so much as they can be reused repeatedly.

Interesting research and a great video! Keep it up!!!

Wow! That is amazing!

Messrs. Lockheed Martín, the team work and the minimum human risk is remarkable, with the model, MUTT X-56A, the synchronization of the operators is fundamental, congratulations. it would be possible to subtitle the contents of the videos to Spanish please, thank you very much.

The narration is a take off of the opening lines of The Right Stuff. Pretty funny that he kept it up throughout the video!

lmao, nice Right Stuff reference

Nice bit of kit that and a (1:56) mighty fine piece of German engineering too 🚀😆😆 ...mind you my Jakadofsky pro-5000 turboshaft has less heating issues on optimum revs than those J'cats, just say'n.

What is the “flutter barrier” actually? Anything to deal with resonance?

So it is a rc jet with fly-by-wire?

Did you say BFF?

Soooo their not gonna show us how they suppressed the flutter?

two rc jet engines awesome

99.9% of the people on this earth can't imagine what the reality of today is.

More cheese then a Tillamook dairy factory

Wow!.

Everything X applies to all aircraft and spacecraft. NASA launch, reentry, and orbital/suborbital craft. Like the X15 tests. The Militaries' job from the Wright Brothers on is to use the results to provide air/space superiority from which weapons delivery, recon, transport are done undetected with more fuel efficient engines on a stable platform. Flutter, I believe, makes the craft light up radar while probably destroying craft, crew and cargo without engaging the enemy. How about a more fuel efficient spy plane/drone. It can re-position itself more quickly than satellites, stay up longer than other drones without endangering humans, etc. Recon was the first use of aircraft in WW I. Just a guess.

None of my modell wings does make such problems even in steep nosedives and in harsh abuse against all specifications. With a progressiv backward sweep in the wing reducing the lift to the tips and some fences this effect should not occur, even if the outer steering surfaces can be trimmed to reduce torsion and the rapid change in load between profil momentum and the constructiv downforce, if no S - shaped profil is used. That shall be calculated without any further .....

I call it resonance.

I like my flutter protection to passive and not be relying on a computer that was written by someone working for the lowest bidder.

What can this do,spike into enemy ships like a dart?

...but wait, there's more!...

wow is all i have to say

It makes me less flutter

do you guys need to make livery that tacky... it looks like my niece drew it.

Ooooooh, I hate dat fluttering rabbit!

You would have to have a need to know. Thats usually what they say to you. If it is a classified R&D program, why brag about it to the public?

Edwards AFB

hahahaha good call

🆒

มันต้องตัดสินใจแล้วถ้าผมจะทำงานเส้นทางนี้มันมีการแข่งขันผมว่าเอาเป็นเอาตายกันไปเลยผมอยู่เหมือนคนปกติเงินมากมายมหาศาลเขาอาจจะทนไม่ไหว

Yeah, but *HOW* does that active flutter suppression work???????

นับเป็นความท้าทายมากกว่าสงครามทุกครั้งที่ผ่านมา

Impersive

AMERIMUTT

And all this can be yours for the firesale price of $100,000,000 taxpayer dollars...

tf2

Flutter barrier.. It sounds really gay doesn't it?

The project is good, but the video sucks.

An unnecessary Lockheed-Martin advertisement aimed at those who are juvenile enough to think that equipment intended to spy on and kill people is cool. It ain't. It is overpriced, largely unnecessary and uncivilized.
