Typhoon close encounter

Awsome...lol.

[@christinecrockford1654]

They neally got in there too and let's hope the camera crew isn't from the the Royal Navy because thed definitely be seaman inside lol

[@robertstorey7476]

This is one of the best videos I've ever seen. Seeing typhoons flying close up is stunning enough but there's something truly artistic and mesmerising about how they seem to be living things being filmed in their natural environment. It's the music but also that you seem to be watching them interact with the film crew on the tail ramp. Great stuff.

[@sardiniasunrentals]

Search for 'french air force promotional video'. Its like this but with mirages and epic!

[@paulweston4829]

Damn! That thing looks menacing. Like a shark studying the menu card at lunch time.

[@bbusigful]

paul weston The Eurofighter is a cool machine but still a copycat.

[@dannygriffiths9050]

B Buse a copycat of what?? The typhoon is a beast without doubt the best jet in operation today!

[@bbusigful]

Danny Griffiths Of JAS. Saab Viggen and so forth. Even the Rafael is a copycat.

[@lobstercrab9355]

B Buse it looks nothing like a Saab Viggen! It has delta wings and canards, that's about all that similar.

[@maxschmidt1787]

(Y) Like your comment!

[@Fricasso79]

You can get this kind of footage of wild Typhoons in autumn and winter, but spring is nesting season for delta canards and the Typhoon will defend its nest aggressively to protect its chicks. Then it's safer to get footage of the Rafale, which is a brood parasite and lays its eggs in unattended Gripen nests.

[@johno9507]

Poor old Hercules straining at full speed while the Typhoons are about to stall!

[@EinkOLED]

John O The Hercules stall speed is higher than the typhoon. In other words the the typhoon can fly slower (when configured) than the Hercules.

[@johno9507]

EinkOLED. I was just being facetious, but may I ask your source on that? My data has C-130 stall at 185km/h and Typhoon at 203 km/h...I have been known to be wrong on occasion, actually just once but I was 3 at the time ;)

[@salbra30]

John O I

[@Otacatapetl]

I was about to say before I read this, that Tornado's practically standing on its tail lol

[@jockwood2398]

John O correct but wrong, while these stall speeds reffer to sea level, at this altitude the stall speed of the typhoon is nearly 300knots due to thin air and small wings

[@ronlines2314]

Things like this really make me think about how incredible human beings are. Fantastic stuff!

[@Wayne55231]

Its crazy isn't it. We went from cave men rubbing stick together and discovering fire....to this.

[@davecopley2255]

Such an awsome aircraft the eurofighter saw it last year at Blackpool airshow the noise was breathtaking has to be one of my favourite aircraft

[@Biotico]

They look so close that you almost want to pet the Typhon in the nose... Awesome images!!

[@LuizFernando-pj4rp]

Nice to see the fighter pilot so close, so exposed, and think about the role of that canopy and his gear in sustaining life at such conditions up to supersonic speeds. Impressive machines!

[@Entity_BlackRed777]

Awww, the Eurofighter Jet looks SO CUTE at 0:48!!

[@porbit101]

Wow! I wouldn't think the fighter jet would be so stable being that close to the cargo plane. Everyone did a great job making this video. I thoroughly enjoyed it!

[@elgun6125]

Michael Toth We see the fighter jets midair refuelling out over the North Sea on a regular basis. They are trained to fly close and steady. This is epic though.

[@nysff0912]

That is simply amazing. Its like a dolphin jumping out of the water. You can almost just touch the nose. Amazing flight abilities

[@chadthatcher4051]

What a beautiful bird. Really menacing looking. I actually like the look of it better than the F-22 or F-35.

[@thetourettesgamer8851]

I think it’s all in that beautiful delta wing

[@TheJakesBlake]

Absolutely agree. However, I don’t think the F35 is even in that league

[@mjames2117]

In a league above both dynamically, F22 is older tech and F35 is sub shit

[@Joetrout]

M James shit it pretty much is up there against any f22 or f35 after the new upgrades and newer long distance capability the typhoon will decimate both even easier!

[@christopherlogsdon1628]

[@mechanoidwarhead5530]

I would've loved to see the pilot's perspective from this event!

I’ve just been sent this. This is one of the best videos I’ve ever seen. The skill level of all concerned is off the charts. To be so close to the typhoon’s, is just mind blowing.

[@elgun6125]

I’ve come back to this so many times throughout the year since I posted. It gives me goosebumps to watch and listen to the doors and fatboy slims music. A match made in heaven.

[@grahamsawyer831]

just for a second, hanging there, it looked like the original Hawker Typhoon - that massive intake under the nose gives a good idea of engine power

[@thephantomflanflinger1108]

Has anyone else noticed that the typhoon has a passing resemblance to an angel interceptor from captain scarlet?, or is it just me?. Great vid by the way!

[@scottmacdonald2302]

Capt Scarlet ,well fuck me if that's not a blast from the past .It was a great show . Scarlet sticking it up the mystarons

[@richardpoynton4026]

Yes, I noticed. The Angel Interceptor had a very high tail plane, though... but for a fictional fighter jet it was strangely very close to our later reality. Did you also notice that they launched from basically a flying aircraft carrier (Skybase One, I think). Decades before SHEILD had one!

[@chrismadge5472]

@@scottmacdonald2302 have you noticed the uncanny remblance of Captain Black, and Mikel Arteta, The Arsenal football club Manager? now that is uncanny lol

For the people saying it's digital (cgi or whatever) this is how they get the shots you see on things like recruitment adverts. Did you think they filmed them from a very high and very fast scissor lift?

[@RubyMarkLindMilly]

Beautiful airplanes in there element those big engine intakes and the nose look really smart for such a small aircraft these things are monsters incredibly loud in the flesh and unbelievabley agile

[@JohnSmith-pd1fz]

Why do all the americans commenting on here take it for granted that the camera plane is a Hercules? Strangely enough there a lots of cargo aircraft with rear opening ramps. The one featured her is actually an Airbus A400M, an aircraft developed and built in Europe, which thank goodness is not part of the usa.

[@DiMeCard]

Beautiful! Presumably the Typhoons come from below the herc to avoid the slipsteam. More than birds it reminds me of dolphins playing and surfacing in the wake of a boat. Still, excellent choice of music to accompany the stunning footage. Can you tell us what your brother was filming for and when and where we might see the end result?

[@tbonebugam1]

Typhoon is the only plane that could probably have a chance out maneuvering the f-22 I think.

[@christopherkarlduff1689]

I had the pleasure of working for Desault Falcon Jet at their completion center. One of my best jobs I had. Very friendly folks at that company, extremely professional. They are so much further along imho than that of Cessna or Beechcraft in the private production, much cleaner, much more organized in production atmosphere. I could only imagine being able to work over seas in their government production would be only that much more exciting. True engineering and skilled laborers work of talent any time you see a Desault aircraft.
