Eurofighter Typhoon Evening Display at Airbourne [HD]

[@Wonkabar007]

I really enjoyed the show this year, the evening display was a nice addition.

[@nijmegen1964]

It's the large air pressure differentiations over the wing that cause the moisture in the air to dissipate into visible vapour.

[@Macsgrafs]

Gutted I missed this show, superb filming as per usual guys. Ross

[@msc2002]

That aircraft is extremely beautiful and although the display was good, it appears to fly effortlessly through the sky. Good filming too!

[@metallica1310]

I was lucky enough to be able to sit in one of these and be shown what all the controls do at an air show a few weeks back

[@albedoshader]

An excellent demonstration of its amazing maneuverability at last! Now you can see why they dumped the thrust vectoring - they just don't need any - and that's exactly what the EF consortium told as the reason.

[@mustanglead]

The roll rate of the Typhoon is exceptional and therefore it's change in direction is incredible. More power to weight than the F-22 the Typhoon has phenomenal acceleration.. Beautiful aeroplane!

[@albedoshader]

It's condensation due to low pressure transonic or supersonic flow over the body plus the accompanying temperature drop of the air flow. The plane itself is moving at subsonic speed, of course. Displays aren't allowed to be flown at supersonic speed. But the air flow can reach supersonic speeds locally. And that's where this phenomenon becomes visible. Sometimes you can also hear a small "sonic boom" due to local supersonic flows that you can only hear if you're pretty near to the plane.

[@albedoshader]

@dj8work TVC has officially been dumped and won't come with T3. The primary use of TVC is for maneuvering. But you could also save a bit fuel if you use TVC for trimming (lowering induced drag) and you can shorten starting and landing distances, which has been tested with a recommissioned X-31 a while ago. TVC itself doesn't make your plane cruise fast or raises your top speed.

[@Scheltokeeper]

Awesome Aircraft! The vertikal RoC is just amazing...

[@ratodoesgato]

beautiful - esspecialy so when the vapour cloud surrounds it in the harsh turns.

[@jraneri811]

@TheBigTittyTwister That's correct, even if your plane has alot of stealthy abillities (which even helps in WVR fights), you still need maneurverability. One of the reasons why the USAF put thrust vectoring into the F22.

[@ukv1290]

Im from the UK and im on this guys side!

[@a8127]

All airshows should be held over the water just for the vapour alone , it looks awesome...

[@sineadXstevens]

It's because the plane is breaking the sound barrier, when things move fast, air piles up in front of them, the air can't move quickly enough to flow out of the way and it's kinda "pushed" away. So the sonic boom you see is the pressurised air. Hope that helped ( :

[@Awacs747fly]

It is very impressive aircraft, strong and flexible and her voice is very wonderful I love the most excitement this aircraft TYPHOON

[@albedoshader]

It's local transonic or supersonic flow. The plane itself is moving at subsonic speed.

[@albedoshader]

That's why it's also called Eurofighter :)

[@albedoshader]

The Tornado is far from being a Joke. It's a top bomber that has fulfilled its missions very successfully. It's old now but I still love the Tornado.

[@slipersox]

it comes from the wings producing lift. the lower pressure on top (which causes the wing to rise) also causes water to condense. do you really think that a 747 could pass the sound barrier.... then sometimes can you see condensation on it's wings at take off?

[@IainPlanesTV]

@adr712 A pair of dynamic mics, probably our trusty AKG D190Es from memory

[@Cyberwwwizard]

UK Typhoon with UK pilots = best in the world, no one else in anything else comes close.

[@Macsgrafs]

Superb filming as per usual Iain, really wanted to make eastbourne, but had my Credit card cloned & lost £640! Looks like a great time, weather as well....mighht have to buy the DVD from you guys then ;) Ross

[@59Putyin]

great aircraft, great video! 5*****************

[@diurdi]

The stuff ("fog") you see at 0:52 actually doesnt come from the wings, it has to do with breaking the sound barrier.

[@HAWX234]

@Duisburger9911 England italy and spain thats why its called the EUROfighter

[@Cyberwwwizard]

lloydik - you are right, the Typhoon was designed and now manufactured by a European consortium but each country has a final specification which may not be the same to others and may not be the same as export versions. Check it out, UK has the very very best of absolutely everything but just not enough of it. Challenger 2 most reliable and best all rounder tank, Merlin best helicopter, Vanguard class SSBN, best in world, Darin Destroyer - best ever etc.. so UK has best ever but just not enough.

[@hookiebookie1]

@dauntless111 Pretty sure they have Eurofighters too, no?

[@cjhklio]

what is the water vapor that forms on the wings called???

[@Ironage99]

Not at any point in this video did the aircraft break the sound barrier, when you see it have a kinda fog it's compressing air in those parts and the air has water in it. The air is forced close and beceause it has water in it it condensises and the moclicules are forced together and it makes a cloud simples.

[@Apidium]

. The share of the production work was divided among the countries in proportion to their projected procurement - DASA (33%), British Aerospace (33%), Aeritalia (21%), and Construcciones Aeronáuticas SA (CASA) (13%). So please explain to me how this is a german plane? taking all the credit.

[@xoio]

Looks like the air was quite moist that day?

[@Raffix394]

@Nemesis816 teile kommen aus ganz europa und der welt wie bei allen EADS fliegern, die Endmontage des Eurofighter ist in Manching (bei Ingolstadt)

[@UNSClead1]

At 0:51 you could see the Typhoon's HUD.

[@coskss]

whats better eurofighter or f-16 with high block ?

[@a8127]

@reindenaab Has lots to do with the sea , over land you need moisture to get vapour which generally means cloud (not an airshow fav)... Over the sea there is moisture ALL the time even with NO cloud.... I can name 1000's of airports by the sea around the globe , so you would still get to see takeoffs aswell

[@Vegane_Atombombe]

The question is: will the stealth technology and BVR-weapons work also work in 20 years? I wouldn't bet on it. There are radar technologies today which can detect older stealth planes like F-117 and B-2 (in theory so far). And the scientists will go on with their work and they will be succesful... An airplane has to be very maneuverable, by the way. What if you got an AA-11 or a SAM on your tail? ;-)

[@OlderG0ds]

Oh did we forget to talk about the fact there are only going to be 187 F-22's made? There are over 125 of them right now. How many EF Typhoons does UK have? 40? lol!

[@THEMATTBUXTON]

you really can fucking feel that after burner if your standing on the beach

[@fabgenius]

nice !

[@coskss]

whats better in dog fight eurofighter or f-16 ?

[@albedoshader]

In the case of the EJ200 engine a TVC upgrade would have come together with a power upgrade, that's why the Typhoon would have been faster with it - that's all.

[@llllorjkdrjhhfiqafh]

as stretchmark8 said don't put too much faith in stealth and anyways ef is part stealthy too

[@tyhplas]

@FreakdasViech Ahh!! so its a German Plane, Is it ?

[@OlderG0ds]

UK will has confirmed order of 160 Typhoons. I don't even care our country doesn't need 700 Raptors lol we already dominate the air. EF is not crap it's probably the 2nd best fighter in service in the world now.

[@SvenTviking]

German plane?? Wasn't it developed from a British technology demonstrator?

[@OlderG0ds]

Yea Rafale probably is better at strike it's got some sophisticated avionics and weapon and apparently it's much stealthier than EF. I think people underestimate Rafale it's a solid plane.

[@Cyberwwwizard]

tamainemiller - yes of course a 19 year old yank will say that. If there was UK pilots in F22 then that is better than any other pilot. UK will be getting F35 so you're not wrong about F35 as it will have UK pilots. However, F35 is for a different mission to Typhoon which is the best multirole currently available and will still be the best with UK pilots. Hasn't anyone told you that UK pilots are the best in the world? UK cannot afford many planes so it makes sure the pilots are the best.

[@FreakdasViech]

@iJaydan und ich fühl mich gut dabei ;o)

[@hopintheroflcopter]

@LOLitsJono I'm biased to the Typhoon seen as i'm British XD But the F-22 is a bloody amazing jet! Althoughhhh...the Typhoon won 7 out of 10 dogfights against the Raptor... :P

[@tobseNo1]

and i think you read the comment at all

[@ChuckMamuck]

the EF looks so stunningly beautiful i could fuck it

[@Ironage99]

Em745aa yep your right. Sorry I was a bit squiffy when I wrote that. :P

[@bmwnasher]

@LOLitsJono im from the uk and agree the F22 is the best plane ever but we aint got the dollars for it

[@95predator]

@undercoverharry115 well in other tests F22 won. We germans and britisch simply should build an anti aircraft stealh bombert with 100 tons payload with intercontinental radar and AA missiles

[@jakem1900]

its just walter vaper comming of the wings

[@OlderG0ds]

Am I seriously reading a comment from a German about USA better at making war? Do we need to have a history lesson?

[@tyhplas]

@therealbamlee Yes! whatever you say, LOL

[@tobseNo1]

that's right i also read this article....may the european have to admit that the americans are better....IN MAKING WAR....are you proud of it??

[@jakem1900]

jetstream

[@pramboy09]

@A7XCellumATR hope your flying is better than your spelling!

[@Sarge084]

But my dad's bigger than your dad.... so there!

[@OlderG0ds]

How did I generalize Germans? and why would I? You know German is the largest ancestry of Americans? (me included) US might be involved in military conflicts a lot but we usually never start it. Iraq is an exception. That war is stupid.

[@tobseNo1]

you generalized all the german ciziens and not only the ones who live now but everybody who lived from 1900 to now by saying you wouldnt read my comment because of somethink somebody else did in an other cenutry....by the way it was an attack on my personality and i may overreacted sorry refearing to your comment:american bombs fell on much more civilists than only iraq civilists...war was never made in america always go to the other's villages and families...but war has to be made somewhere....

[@ratodoesgato]

wouldnt wana be in the Lybian military right now...

[@FreakdasViech]

german engeneering!!!

[@95predator]

F22 is much better

[@navnig]

geez bud, sober up or learn some grammar will ya.....

[@Awacs747fly]

It is very impressive aircraft, strong and flexible and her voice is very wonderful I love the most excitement this aircraft TYPHOON
