READ BEFORE COMMENTING: I rarely use the word 'Amazing' in my descriptions, but in this case, I thought it was fitting. Apparently so amazing that many people think it is fake or ai generated video, which it is NOT! I suggest that users read the full description of this video before posting ignorant comments about how fake the video is, or how the military would never allow this. We do this type of thing all the time for airshow flyovers. There is absolutely nothing fake about this video. And for those who don't know what a GoPro looks like and are saying there is not one, try looking in left hand at 0:34. Cell phone was brought out to use in right hand in addition. This footage is all from the GoPro! VIEW of FLYOVER from the GROUND: kzbin.info/www/bejne/qWnIpmyHap2hiLM

@@Ralf0815 Except the Horten plane never went into production. The only thing that plane and B-2 have in common is the rough shape. And the Horten was a terrible design, it had the pilot sitting jammed between the two jet engines, dooming him in the event of failure -which is exactly what happened on the test flight of the only prototype that flew. Engine caught fire, pilot burned, crash, done and over. B-2 is of course completely new technologies and design, there's no comparison.

Super cool. I’m not a big plane guy, but happened to be driving through Chicago on a cross country trip on the day of the Chicago Air Show at Navy Pier and decided to swing a bit out of the way and check it out. Well, they showed off all kinds of cool planes, but then there was a lull in the action and people were just talking to one another going “what’s going on, why are there no planes? Is the show over?”. Suddenly you heard this big jet whoosh overhead and looked up to see the enormous silhouette of a B-2 flying directly over you at an incredibly low altitude just above the tallest building on the pier, all while flying incredibly, incredibly slowly. What was amazing to me was that you could not hear it AT ALL when it was coming and not 5 seconds after it passed the pier, it was barely audible. Anyway, the announcer spent a bunch of time talking about “acoustic stealth” tech on the B-2 and it totally blew my mind that I hadn’t even considered the concept of stealth tech being in the realm of acoustics. Man…. All I can say is that if you were the enemy, you wouldn’t have much time to figure out that a B-2 was directly overhead, much less that it had already released its payload…. Amazing stuff.

Wow! Incredible footage you have taken. In 2021 I was given the opportunity to go to Whiteman Air Force Base and be given a tour of their base. This was when I was in ROTC at my collage. At the base we go to meet the Base commander and they showed us some videos and pictures of what they do and then before we left the main building they confiscated all of our electronics. No phones, cameras, key fobs, anything with a battery we had to put in the plastic bin. After that they took us on a bus and drove us out to the hangers and went into the Spirit of Washington hanger ( all B-2's are named the "spirit of ____" ). We had 2 pilots with us and they showed us around the plane and they even allowed us to sit inside the cockpit. Now with this video of showing the B-2 fly up close it is still one of my most favorite bombers in the US Air Force.

The T-38's are rock steady throughout the run with their high wing loading compared to the B-2, which is displaying the exact opposite characteristics with its low wing loading at near empty weight.

The Encyclopedia of Aircraft (Jackson et al ) describes the B-2 as reportedly being agile with handling that is "fighter-like". I'd be curious to see this in real life and how well this statement bears up to scrutiny. It certainly seems less stable the the T-38s in the roll axis but it's hard to tell given the camera angles and distances and the inevitable turbulence so close to the ground.

Looks like two T-38s.

T-38 Talon is mentioned in the video description

I wondered the same - looked old and possibly European inside, 70s/80s?

Is that a piece of garden hose and two screw clamps?

It's cool to see so close flying the B-2. The first thing I noticed that how unstable it's flying.
@stevevlahos1Ай бұрын
My wife and I saw one last month do 3 fly overs in Michigan where we live at an air show and I just stood there in awe. It’s the most beautiful plane I have ever seen.

Just amazing that it can fly and maneuver. To think the first generation was made back in the 40-50’s before computers. 😎
@shanerorko8076Ай бұрын
The most amazing thing is that it electronically stabilises itself.
@VisioGuyАй бұрын
To me it almost looked like it was struggling to stay in the air. I think these are inherently unstable and HAVE to be stabilized by computer. Maybe someone who knows what they're talking about can chime in with something more coherent 😀
@wim0104Ай бұрын
F-16's are unstable too. the initial batch just used C64 processors.

Most modern fighter jets is impossible to fly without electronically stabilization...

It looks so surreal. The peaceful landscape, the low altitude, the flexing wings and the crisp footage... No wonder the foilheads think it's fake. I was mesmerized :D

You can watch the video repeatedly, and the B2 is like observing a real-life UFO; it's enthralling.

It’s one of those planes that feels like it shouldn’t be able to even fly, yet there it is. An actual massive structure spreading its wings.

funny you say that, I keep seeing the 'fake' comments. but this was a flyover for the airshow that was witnessed by literally thousands of people, so why would we even fake it. We had a combat camera guy in the backseat to get this footage, not a big deal. LOL

Damn. I had to do a triple take because I really thought this was cgi. The super trimmed landscape on top of the go pro's stabilization made this look like a next gen flight simulator. Absolutely amazing footage. Thank you for sharing.

Testing of these designs and the finished B-2 probably represents the majority of UFO reports in the 1980s. What a remarkable aircraft

It looks and, strangely feels, intimidating almost as if you are following a UFO. Bloody amazing film footage. Thank you.
