MQ-9 Reaper and Its Weapon Systems: A Detailed Explainer 3D Animation

[@PerennialKarma]

Bro I'm surprised this isn't more popular! Very well made and informative.

[@OliverEnde]

Hey, thanks a lot, Carlos! I'm doing my best 😀

[@kentuky1233]

Thank you so much for using meters and kilograms instead of freedom units.

[@OliverEnde]

you are welcome! As I live in Germany, we naturally use these units here :-)

[@kentuky1233]

@@OliverEnde thanks! I'm from Argentina so I thank you for that. On the other hand after watching so many KZbin videos I've developed the ability to convert kgs and meters into freedom units by heart. Anyway, thank you, that was a great video!

thank you for the kind comment and the subscription :-D

[@smoothie3d46]

Watching an animation to make the same 3D object depicted That's nice

[@CarbonGlassMan]

Anyone know the "Real" latency of these things? I keep seeing 2 seconds but I find that hard to believe. That sounds more like the "release to the public in order to hide it's real capabilities" quote on latency.

[@halb37]

Two seconds is about right, give or take a few "tenths of a second". This is due to distance signal has to travel and the encryption. I've flown the sim and it takes a little getting used to (i.e. nothing happens for ~2 seconds, then it keeps moving 2 seconds after you stop input). Because of this delay all takeoffs/landings can not be done remotely. Instead a lucky crew gets to go TDY for onsite TO/Ldg

[@marshalllapenta7656]

Whoever made this video does good work I watched this 1 2x.

[@OliverEnde]

Thanks a lot, great that you like it

[@MokkaMusic]

thanks for using my music with credits! :)) cool video btw!

[@OliverEnde]

Hey, thanks again :-)

[@peymanenanloo6570]

بسیار سپاسگزارم از اطلاعات خوبی که در مورد این پهپاد ارائه دادید......موفق باشید 👍👍👍

[@neddyladdy]

Is it intended for all the common crops?

[@mylast3wishs]

Great informative video thank you

[@shamilrzayev5879]

This is not MQ-9 Reaper, this a modified version of MQ-1 Predator. However, a good animation though. Thanks for your effort. Also is it possible to acquire that model somehow?

[@Uglier.]

Reaper of many souls. Knowingly and unknowingly, eliminates without discrimination; good or bad

[@josephg9245]

Love the video, just would want both imperial and metric version, (especially of were talking about us equipment lol)

[@JT-zl8yp]

you did not explain the components inside the middle and front part of the body of the drone.

[@cyborghobo9717]

That one huge dude for the same scale .

[@adamnordinrogers]

Good job bud

[@top--10--]

thnk you for such informative video,

[@OliverEnde]

You are welcome!

[@Kim-by5uy]

amazing

[@jackkraken3888]

Regarding collateral damage, it doesn't include Reaper customers deciding to wipe out 2 fishermen because :'hey thet could be dangerous?" Lets hope the customers of these drones know what they are doing even though we know they don't.

[@shanejetzer4317]

I remember when carbon fiber whas a new concept and expensive as all hell. Now it is basically everywhere which is nice as it can easily replace fiberglass in construction (not sure about the insulation value).

[@SaxPanther]

You've got the internal components wrong, that's not what it looks like at all. Like wtf is this engine at 1:44, it doesn't even have an intake even though there's an obvious exterior intake right next to it

[@OliverEnde]

Hey, rhanks for your comment. I built the interior from the puctures I found on Wikipedia and from other sources in the www.. if you have correct footage of how the interior looks like, it would be great if you could send it to me.. but the pictures I used showed the interior as it it modelled in my animation..

[@SaxPanther]

@@OliverEnde Do you have a CAC? If so you can see the full CAD specs on the military's website

[@OliverEnde]

@@SaxPanther Hey, do you mean a Common Access Card with CAC? No, unfortunately not.. but thanks for the advice!

[@mooooooooooomooooooooooomo6829]

how many missile come with it when bought?

[@OliverEnde]

HAHA :-) I guess 20 Hellfire, 15 AGM-176 Griffin, and some other missiles as a gift as well ;-)

[@jmoney3218]

What was that white missile pod that was rounded with 4 missiles?

[@Flywithjon]

Bro I got chills when he said it can see you in a bunker…. I’m in a normal house imagine what it can see 😮

[@CarbonGlassMan]

An American drone listed in the METRIC SYSTEM! How many miles? I'm surprised you didn't give it's flight time in Mexican seconds.

[@jafaralrashid]

Would be nice if you have explained how the Hithies have downed 9 of these so far

[@ylstorage7085]

[@robertknight5429]

The best tactic against these is to get at the operators on the ground, off duty. The RAF control theirs from RAF Waddington maybe. Tiochfadh ar la!

[@stuuuporman]

The Hellfire ll employed by the the USAF is not the same as used by the US Army. The USAF would never put US Army markings on their own Hellfire ll variant. When speaking of US equipment, please use Imperial measurements, not the metric alone.
