It’s never a war crime the first time

[@CouncilBluffsunderground]

😂😂😂

[@americansmark]

I have the War Crimes Christmas sweater. It got tons of laughs from both Chubby Electron Guy fans and military folks.

[@thatotherdan9984]

And sometimes it's not a war crime the second, third, fourth.... etcetera. Depending on how many times you can pull it off before someone calls foul

[@steeljawX]

@@thatotherdan9984 I mean, it's like that other adage. "It's only a crime if you're caught." So I guess technically it's never a war crime until someone cares about the several submitted complaints about said conduct.

[@grady1134]

Quackbang out 😂

[@stevedietrich8936]

I spent 4 years in the USAF in the mid 70's. The F-16 and the F-15 were just being introduced. The mainstay fighter at that time was the F-4. I recall them showing us a film of a F-4 and F-15 taking off on parallel runways at the same time. The F-15 got in the air first, accelerated and shot straight up to 10,000 feet, did a loop and dove on the F-4 just as it was lifting off from the runway. They've only made it even better in the 5 decades since.

[@halicarnassus8235]

Thank you for your service. Sometimes I feel like I'm the oldest one here and I'm in my early 40s. I was a teenager when these two were born, and you were out being awesome before I was born.

[@Rogers_Ranger]

i did an STOL in an F 15 113th tac fight wing , dude ! i was huffing and puffing and i was just a cadet in an OJT flight,,,,it is a rocket ...

[@crazynedry5085]

That sounds absolutely beatiful And also horifying Wow

[@TornoBoys-w9m]

Holy shit

[@Spartan536]

You should see what the F-22 does to the F-15. It's freaking scary.

[@Tijuanabill]

"This is America, we don't make sense, we make dollars." That might be the most American thing ever said. **sheds a single tear**

[@wilshade]

The guy has a great video about the US Navy origin story. The lesson from it is "Never mess with America's boats."

[@kimkacer782]

I LOVE that one.... granted I love many of his videos, but for now, that's my fave one.

[@adamgarrick3778]

A third vote for this one. You will really enjoy this vid.

[@lindae2524]

Ships not boats

[@soarabove337]

Oh yeah, I totally forgot about this one; it's a classic too! It's one of his many vids where viewers are like "I learn more useful history from you than in all of my schooling". 😂😂😂

[@steeljawX]

@@lindae2524 "Savvy?" 😉 But yeah, we don't take kindly to our ships (Nice Things) being messed (f*cked) around with.

[@Vhailor_Mithras]

"This is America, we don't make sense we make dollars!" I love it, so true!

[@PaulGAckerman]

Most of his videos are about the American military. But he has two British-centric topics: the de Havilland Mosquito and Douglas Bader.

[@mikerooker3580]

I believe the Chicken Nuclear Landmine was also British

[@soarabove337]

Yup forgot about these ones too. And TFE doesn't even quote / cite McNasty as "after conquering the world for spices, Brits still have bad food" lmao.

[@nutterbuttergutter]

Those two plus the chicken land mine one were all amazing videos.

[@joshuapboston1999]

Interesting fact. The F-15 Eagle was used in the 1983 Japanese toy line Diaclone for their transforming figures. They were sold in both gray and red and white and blue paint schemes, both of which were imported by Hasbro to become part of the first year of the Transformers toy line in 1984 as Starscream and Thundercracker. More paint schemes would be used and created to create more of these clones, and because of them sharing the same body type as Starscream, they have become collectively known as the Seekers. Safe to say, the F-15 Eagle is most definitely nostalgic and popular amongst Transformers fans old and new

[@KairiPrime]

The Airforce actually has an F-15 named Starscream for that reason, complete with Decepticon symbol. And to be clear, that is the name of the plane, not the callsign of the pilot.

[@sullyway51]

Also Japan bought the rights to build their own real Eagles as F-15Js.

[@Raivo_K]

@@IntergalacticDustBunny Yeah i've been partial to F-14 myself because of the variable wing design.

[@adlockhungry304]

Didn’t they also model the Veritech (also with a robot mode) fighters from Macross on the F-14?

[@RAL0981]

I like when y’all pause to talk or try to understand something.never apologize for pausing ❤️

[@UpperDarbyDetailing]

Yeah, it’s literally the entire point of reaction videos. Anyone that complains about that instead of just watching the original video is dumb enough to touch our boats while raising gas prices.

[@boomhaur626]

All the Fat Electrition vids are great, he's a gifted story teller, with a love of history.

[@ericpark2911]

McChord Air Force Base in Tacoma, aka, JBLM, was home to the 318th Fighter Interceptor Squadron known as the Green Dragons. Every year the base would put on an airshow free to the public. The 318th would have a mock demonstration of an intercept mission where one of the F-15s would start rolling at the far south end of the runway. By the time it was at the halfway point it would already be airborne with gear up and full afterburner. As it passed show center it would pull straight up, the flames from the afterburners would hit the runway as it rocketed straight up and out of sight in just a few seconds. Sadly the 318th disbanded in the mid 80s, some aircraft ended up in Portland. I still miss seeing them at the shows.

[@griffj52gmail]

PDX has a bees nest of F15s! I see and or hear groups of them almost everyday. I have heard they can get to the coast from PDX in under three minutes. Love having them around!

[@chrismaverick9828]

The F-15 is fast, but still not nearly as fast as cats with the zoomies at 2am.

[@brianwalker5937]

Although I was in the Navy, the F-15 will be my favorite aircraft of all time. I was around 11 or 12 when I went to an air show and I saw the F-15 do it's air show. For me it's still the most amazing machine I have seen in action...especially the going literally 90 degree vertical immediately after take off until you couldn't see it anymore. Most planes would stall. That show, this plane is what got me interested in science and math and the military.

[@bynrdskynrd]

They (Uncle) had it in mind to use it as a quasi First-Stage for a killer satellite in orbit, so yeah.

[@randalmayeux8880]

I was driving across the Lake Worth bridge near the Joint Reserve Base next to Fort Worth, Texas one afternoon when an F-18 flying low over the water approached the bridge. About 100 yards away from me the pilot suddenly turned the nose of the plane straight up. It took off, literally, like a rocket, the exhaust churned the water up as the jet surged upwards. The sound was deafening, and glancing up I could see it was still vertical though by now it was probably at least 1/2 mile up. It was really cool to see!

[@lesgobrandon9444]

I love the Super Hornet also as a fellow former sailor

[@jaycooper2812]

My cousin flew the F-15C and F-15E for over 15 years. His Air Force career ended when he was hit by a drunk driver and lost his leg below the knee. He has matched the Time to Climb record of 3 minutes and 27 seconds from a standstill on the runway to an altitude of 98,425 feet or 30,000 meters. The aircraft can reach speeds of 1,900 miles per hour and accelerate through the sound barrier going straight up.

[@briandix4633]

He matched the Streak Eagle?

[@briandix4633]

That F-15 is at the National Museum of the USAF, to set the record they stripped it down, to the point it wasn't even painted. Although, that may be a semi classified record, like the SR-71{official speed record about 2200 knots, but in reality 2500+)

[@sullyway51]

I had just been in the USAF for a year when the Eagles started coming online. We were still using F-4 Phantoms as front line fighters. A-10s came on in the next year replacing the A-4 Corsair. Marine Corp Harriers were just coming on line around then too.

[@PatrickSBellSr]

Yep, these have been in, essentially, continuous production (and upgrades) since the mid-70's - i.e., we have A LOT of them. 😎👍

[@greatwhiteape6945]

I worked in the Non-Destructive Inspection (NDI). Did a lot of inspections on it. Incredible aircraft. It went from takeoff to, I don’t know 60,000 feet or something climb record. Got to go to McDonnell Douglas and see how they are built. I was being trained on inspections of the aircraft as well as the engines.

[@Dmachine2000]

From brake release on the runway to 92,000 feet in three and a half minutes. Record still stands from the 70s I believe.

[@justinmaguire4987]

It's 64,000 ft to be exact, at one point one of the Eagles was stripped of everything including its paint and name Streak Eagle it broke several altitude records including one at over 103,000 feet

[@jeffrielley920]

I worked in Phase Docks for a couple years. We used to call you guys all the time.

[@Tam58851520]

The Fat Electrician is a great follow. Loved - "We don't make cents, we make dollars."

[@jLutraveling]

my dad worked for McDonnell Douglas when they came off the line.. he worked as a field and service mechanic. Occasionally he would wave in the test pilots when they came in for a landing. The F15 program put a lot of food on the table for many in our region.

[@dmacc1206]

His story about the blue whale is one of my favorites

[@GRT1865]

When I was young I wanted to pilot one. Unfortunately my eyesight without correction was below minimum levels. Im glad I stumbled upon this video. Everyone have a wonderful day.

[@KensleyHomeschool]

I've seen this at Luke AFB in Glendale, AZ -- Mind blowing to watch a plane take off and then go straight up in the air....Crazy.

[@Culdcepter]

I would recommend reviewing the Fat Electrician on the USS Barb. Not only is the story of that sub hilarious, but his spin on it makes it just that more ridiculously funny.

[@ghowell13]

That video was excellent. I won't give it away, but the section where he draws attention to their battle flags is epic, lol.

[@stangriffinstan_the_alaska9668]

This guy is golden I'm subbed to him and it's always a good time I've seen them all and they are all good and fun to watch

[@chrisperosa]

The USAF 48th Fighter Wing is located at RAF Lakenheath. They fly the F-15E Strike Eagle. This variant can be a fighter and a bomber at the same time. They also have F-35A fighters.

Love the reacts guys, keep 'em coming. If you're looking for suggestions, it's hard to go wrong with any of his vids... buuuuuuuuut here are a few anyway: Proportional, Gangster Marine, USS Texas, Fin Soldier on meth (hilarious), Grand Theft Uboat, and USMC Sergeant Reckless (which I believe is still his longest vid). Rock on BEEsleys!

[@Dan-ASICPlug]

His video on the Bat Bomb, and on the secret cheese bunkers are both great.

[@MrSJPowell]

"The Bunker Busting Howitzer Bomb that Ended Desert Storm", "Biggest Logistical Flex Of All Time - Berlin Airlift" and "Wrecking & Trolling The Germans With A Wooden Plane - DH-98 Mosquito" are all excellent watches.

[@KhenoronhkhwaJesusIs]

That sound at 4:49 is the sonic boom.

[@ChuckHuffmaster]

One of my favorites is " America's war horse Sgt reckless"

[@doubled61]

As an F-15 crew chief in the '80s, I would have to agree it's gangster.

[@davidtcpa1]

As F-15 C-Shop from ‘80 - ‘00, (A thru E models), I wholeheartedly agree!

[@Silky808]

I was stationed at Seymour Johnson AFB in North Carolina and I was deployed with the F-15E that dropped a bomb on a moving helicopter “487”. It was the pride of the 335th Fighter Squadron “Chiefs”. F-15’s are just badass! Edit: I have also been stationed at RAF Lakenheath which is in the UK. Just letting you know, you have USAF F-15s in your backyard 😂.

[@jamessowder193]

They're literally had to be nothing left of that helicopter after I got hit by that damn bomb! There couldn't have been many big parts to find of that thing lol.

[@brettleisy356]

I've mentioned episodes on the last TFE vid you had. "the Submarine that sank a train" "The Infamous Eager Beavers & Their Custom B17 Bomber ' "America's Airborne Anti-hero" "America Dismantles Pirate Nations For Touching Their Boats"

[@hisaddle]

I grew up on St. Louis, Missouri where these are made, and the F-18. I have friends, neighbors, and relatives that worked there. One of my high school buddies still works there. The F-15 and the F-22 can take off, wheels up, and then go vertical and accelerate as it goes straight up.

[@Thatguyboogerbush-gp9db]

Keep up these reactions. TFE is a helluva channel!

[@shadownor]

FT was alluding to the all new F-15EX, foreign customers of the F-15 wanted upgrades and paid for the research, and so many of those research products ended up in an all new F-15, the F-15EX, FT asked if we wanted him to look into that and I think we should? A new American fighter made largely with foreign investments, YES!

[@nadjasunflower1387]

if i remember right, it's also got a ' stealth ' paint coating. ( not as effective as F22 or F35 but better then nothing ) which is why it has a dark grey almost black coloring compared to Eagles of old.

[@SmedleyDouwright]

I think the EX has fly by wire. So it will be easier to fly and likely even more maneuverable. I sure other electronics were improved too.

[@jakobw5006]

All 3 are great stories !!!....see ya Beesleys , Ive been watching for years !!!

[@brucelamberton8819]

In 1975, an F-15 "Streak Eagle" set eight time-to-climb records including from sea level to 9,000 meters (29,685 feet) in just 48.86 seconds,, an altitude which would take a typical jet airliner more than 15 minutes. Nearly 50 years later, its records still stand.

[@Cody38Super]

This is what happens when Russia brags to much........F-15 spends 40 years wrecking everyone's game.

[@nadjasunflower1387]

not just bragging...but lying about what they actually have. F-15 was designed to beat what the Soviets said their MiG 25 could do...wasn't until a soviet pilot ( forget his name atm ) defected with his MiG 25 that US / NATO got to really look at the MiG 25 and see it for the giant POS that it was. LOL Edit: we literally designed a plane to beat another plane who's capabilities only existed in theory. Because the real planes capabilities were far inferior to what was claimed it could do. LOL

[@Cody38Super]

@@nadjasunflower1387 yes, they said it could do Mach 3.2, the 25/31 were only able to muster 2.7 and the engines tried to chew themselves apart. It had hypersonic missile that could shoot down anything...it's S.A.M.3 Sites and 25/31 took 800+ shots at the SR-71, didn't hit jack-shit. They said it was the most powerful dogfighter ever, if it pulled more that 4.5 G's....the wings ripped off. The F-15 has faced many Mig-25/31's over the years....I dont need to tell you how that worked out for them. Piss off the Air Force....you get the A-10, F-15, F-16, F-22 and the F-35, don't piss off the Air Force.

[@OmegaInfinityAlpha]

Word of advice watching more of his videos: watch all the way to the end of the video past the credits. He usually either has more jokes or actual footage of whatever the topic was. You're going to miss a lot of content if you keep pausing before the video is finished.

[@stevemak8620]

The State of Oregon's Oregon Air National Guard fly F15's out of my home town flight facility, Portland International Airport. One of only two major US airports that share their runways with a guard unit. It is breathtaking, to say the least, to see F15's come off of the runway and then immediately go near vertical. And the sound --- OMG --- , incredibly loud. Also, they take off in pairs, which is something different than the daily normal. They'll be flying the F15EX soon, and the new F35's as well.

[@estried86]

They were the ones who were scrambled to Seattle, when that airline employee stole the plane in 2018. Both F-15 pilots requested to go supersonic and made it there in 10 minutes. 😮

[@briandix4633]

It's entertaining seeing people who don't know about this kind of thing and being shocked when they find out. Another good one is Ward Carroll interviewing the pilot of an A-10 who took major damage (would have instantly downed most aircraft) and made it back to base. Her squadron commander said he couldn't have made that perfect of a landing in an intact aircraft

[@halicarnassus8235]

It was nice to see James actually listen to Millie's input in this video. It was also nice for her not to just assume things. She worked out the calculations correctly. And for a new mother, that is harder than any man like us can understand.

Greetings from America. Great reaction. I spent 2 years in Solihull (Birmingham.) I had a great time in the country.

[@danielhandley2876]

I can't say that I have a top three, or even top five videos of his. I love his videos too much. Because I'm from Texas, I really enjoyed his battleship Texas video. I have to say that his videos on the mosquito and the British fighter Ace from world war II are outstanding, and if you want some good old-fashioned British patriotism, I would watch those. Another fun one is the submarine that sunk a train. Apparently, that really happened. If you want to know about some war heroes, there's Sergeant Dan Daily, The ghost of baton, and Jake McNasty McNeese. Some really funny ones are the ones he does about the different weapons platforms, IE America's a blunderbuss, and the one on the Colt 1911 pistol. All of them are really good though. Have fun! I really enjoy y'all's videos immensely and can't wait to see videos of y'all visiting the USA, especially Texas. I also can't wait to see you guys reacting to more of the fat electrician.

The F-15 Eagle hasn't really been replaced by the F-22 Raptor because the Air Force plans to retire the F-22 Raptor in the 2030s, while the F-15EX Eagle II will replace the old F-15s and continue to fly for the foreseeable future.

[@lanejohnson7656]

There will likely be F-15’s flying when not only the F-22 but also the F-35 are both put to pasture. Better jet if you figure in reliability and everything else. Who the fuk cares if they show up on radar, it still outclasses enemy jets with ease. The only thing the train wreck known as the F-35 has going for it is the trillions of dollars put into it. Literally to much invested in it to quit. Lockheed Martin is damn lucky the American people haven’t demanded a warranty and rebates.

[@Typexviiib]

Your dates are pretty spot on, but your conclusion lacks some nuance. The f22 did replace the f15….. as the premier interceptor and air dominance platform. Ngad will replace the f22 in this role in the mid 2030s. F15ex is not intended to be a front line interceptor. It will likely fly past the f22, but not in the f22s role.

[@44excalibur]

@@Typexviiib The old F-15D Eagle is being retired, but the F-15E Strike Eagle and F-15EX Eagle II will remain in production. Yes, the F-22 Raptor will be replace by whatever they decide to call the new NGAD fighter in the next decade. The F-15EX doesn't have to fill the F-22's role, the F-35A Lightning II will.

[@Typexviiib]

@@44excalibur i think you missed my point in that “replaced” means the role, not that its being retired. F4s remained in service for decades after the f15 and f14 replaced them as interceptors. F35 isnt a replacement for f22s role, it fills all the roles the f22 cant do very well. They are companion platforms much like the f15 and f16 or f14 and f18. F15e are bomb trucks, f15ex are ancillary bomb and missile trucks.

[@44excalibur]

@@Typexviiib I meant in terms of the F-35's stealth capability, that's all. Also, the F-14 was intended as an interceptor. The F-15 was meant for air superiority. But yes, you're right about the F-4s. The F-22s might still hang around for a while.

[@devincorns409]

The F-15 is like the muscle car of jets. It’s being upgraded as I type this

The F-15 has always and always will be my favorite aircraft followed by the only fighter I ever took a flight in and that would be the F-4.

[@robertkennett4622]

It may have changed since I was in the Air Force, but I have not seen anything online that indicates there has been any other to achieve this ability. The F-15 was/is the only airplane that can ACCELERATE going straight up. That's like a space rocket for cryin' out loud. Think about that for a minute, accelerate, gain speed, in a pure vertical attitude. That's powerful.

My father was a F15 bomber (its been build into fighter-bomber versions) and I have teased him that he has never flown a plane for the US Air Force and is no aviator. He's a rocketship man =D

You've got to react to his video "Wrecking & Trolling The Germans With A Wooden Plane - DH-98 Mosquito" , it's actually about the British.

Ironically, some of the jets that came before the F-15 were way faster, but were discontinued because military thinkers started to think that speed wasn't that important in comparison to the other systems aboard the aircraft. And with 5th and 6th gen Aircraft (stealth aircraft) they are almost entirely undetectable - at least the American ones, not so sure about Russia or China - so speed is now seen as a secondary statistic behind radar, stealth, and armament. I believe there were a whole slew of aircraft in the mid-late cold war that were designed to go at least Mach 3, which is 3.7 kilometers an hour, and 1029 meters a second.

At this point, the F-15’s wings are simply there so a NASA astronaut doesn’t get confused

A bit late since it is after Christmas, however his Toys For Tots video is great. When he gets to his favorite Christmas story, I can say it is totally true because it happened while I was still on active duty.

Do all of them. I have already seen ever video he has made. But I love seeing other people reaction to him.

A few suggestions for your consideration. Each one are short videos Uss Texas Uss New Jersey The 89th airborne Pararescue

If the F-15 Eagle can fly at 1,900 miles per hour, it could fly from New York to Los Angeles in an hour and 28 minutes. That's insane.

A simple way of saying it is the F-15 has a thrust to weight ratio greater than 1. So it could be stood on end on the ground and go straight up.
