Undetectable, Unstoppable and Utterly Stealthy - JetZero's BWB Aircraft

[@Zehbron]

The “dramatic background music” drowns out the narrator on some platforms.

[@watermann8200]

Stupid choice since we come here to hear about the "tech" not listen to canned music.

[@tmseh]

Needs Battlefield soundtrack.

[@blabbergasted4380]

Music track overwhelming.

[@jhatty6341]

Can't even hear him at some points in the video

[@Pinkfongfan24]

Yeah I had to crank it up to hear him and it totally drowns out 😂

[@djr3386]

Background music is 🔥 but next time decrease the volume a bit. It will be helpful for hearing your narration. Superb editing Dark Tech team. 👍🏼👌

[@anon_y_mousse]

Definitely agreed there. It's a lot harder to hear the narration over that music.

[@MrFlazz99]

I was going to make a plea for moderation in the background music level, but then the very first comment I read was just such a plea. At least I know I'm not just a cantankerous deaf old fool!

[@RogerEvans-oy2wj]

Ditto!! (From an 83 year old Brit.) 😎👍🏼

[@larsrystedt4865]

Music is so loud at times that it is quite difficult to hear you talk. :(

[@baldieman64]

Unusually for a "Dark" video, the music is so loud that I can barely make out what is being said.

[@CivRev10]

There is no "dwindling fossil fuel" issue. Just the unwillingness to extract coupled with the stupidity to not enhance nuclear power.

[@warlock64c]

I was actually gonna post some like this. Guyana is even in the news now because they just discovered a HUGE deposit and Venezuela wants a piece.

[@TheGlobalTravelr]

The general public is clueless to amount of oil located in Africa. It’s considered the next Middle East.

[@walkingcarpet420]

Same with the imaginary climate crisis, total nonsense

[@floycewhite6991]

"Atoms for Peace" is political cover for atom bombs. It's so filthy and expensive only the biggest governments can subsidize it.

[@rolsson1693]

Canada 🇨🇦 is a reservoir of oil, gas and LNG! Only problem is the political will on both sides of the border.

[@Howard-nx2ip]

The background music is so loud that I could barely hear the narrator.

[@copester1204]

You might want to re-render this video. The 'background' music stomps on the narration in a few places.

[@Couchienz]

Being a flying wing doesn't automatically make it Stealthy, those engines with exposed turbine blades will make it stick like a sore thumb to radars.

[@kurtr1090]

You’re right. Those canards on the wing tips would stand out as well. Though the fuel efficiency and range is very exciting.

[@dianapennepacker6854]

I mean it still has a lower RCS compared to a conventional aircraft, but yeah. Now we just need airelonless designs using compressed air that he talked about in an other video with a BWB.

[@MrDhalli6500]

DUDE THE MUSIC IS SO LOUD I HAVE TO TURN ON THE CAPTIONS TO READ WHAT I CAN'T HEAR. SWEET BABY JEBUS.

[@heathbruce9928]

Why wasn't the Northrop yb49 included here?

[@KartSmarter]

Maybe the Air Force should concern themselves with China instead of the climate

[@dextermorgan1]

Lol

[@s3p4kner]

Fuel efficiency IS a huge military advantage. Especially in aircraft. Huge. Range / weight.

[@calomanny]

Music was too loud this time. Otherwise, same great video as always!

[@generalrendar7290]

music isn't loud enough. I can still hear the dialogue.

[@StEvEn-dp1ri]

Dude the dramatic music was crazy loud. Juuuust a bit too dramatic ya know?

[@erickwilliams6147]

Bring the background music down a little bit.😂😂

[@batterymooch]

Interesting topic but the blaring background music ruins it all…unwatchable.

[@russsibbald3705]

As always a fascinating and well researched/presented video. One request is look at how the backing track drowns out the audio in places esp in the first couple of minutes. Outside of that adore your work

[@TonyHilliardSedona]

Yes the music is so loud it smothers the audio….

[@tbarry4990]

Glad someone brought that up (audio track overpowered narration). And I also agree with the enjoyment of watching these videos.

[@marsmotion]

yeah cant hear you over the music way to well not helping is all ill say

[@johngeorgegately7402]

Background music overwhelms the narration. Remix in order.

[@dannythomson5239]

what is wrong with the sound? can barely hear the narration for the music.

[@Trooper599]

I like how youtube slapped a "Context" warning to your video, explaining climate change, just because you mentioned the word. These alarmists are getting more and more fragile by the day lol

[@LostPlanet2024]

Yeah, I bet the enemy trembles in irrational fear in the knowledge that our newest aircraft is net zero….

[@kingdiesel68]

What's the difference between a "lift body"design and this BWB? An for that matter the "flying wing" design!?!

[@marusholilac]

I know KZbin creators think that adding music enhances the production value. If it's balanced in volume I guess it's harmless, but in this video it's just a nuisance. BTW, there's no rule that you cannot edit and report a deficient video.

[@ChrisShUK]

No stupid red arrow on your thumbnail! Excellent, well done you guys

[@szabotnikseven6022]

why does the music have to be so loud that I can't hear what you are saying?

[@patrickmilliken1463]

The audio mix doesn't work. Music overwhelms the narration. You need to remix your audio.

[@miker3298]

Brits invented the delta wing with embedded engines in the 1940's - Why mount the engines ABOVE a wing makes no sense for stealth The AVTO Vulcan bomber had the radar signature of a seagull.

[@philipthomashinch-ki7cg]

As usual music is too loud and you can't hear the commentary

[@informationcollectionpost3257]

Never knew a blended wing body had a shorter take-off and landing distance. It mysterious ly looks like the Boeing 797 concept. Two difficulties in creating a passenger airliner are its shape is difficult & difficult to calculate a pressurized fuselage and the width is so wide that it is hard to evacuate passengers from in the required FAA time limit. Boeing always kept it on the back burner as a cargo only jetliner. If the military decides in favor of it; then a cargo jetliner is going to come next. A blended winged passenger liner is some distance away from reality.

[@willythemailboy2]

Yeah, the evacuation standard is a deal breaker. The surface to volume ratio is simply too low to mount the needed exits. As a cargo plane it has potential, especially since that would avoid the other deal breaker of having to rebuild every airport in the world.

[@michalhaubner2104]

We could even hear the commentary, if it weren't for the unreasonably loud and epic music.

[@treich1234]

Ditch the conflicting "music" please

[@sim.frischh9781]

PLEASE tell me you are not also starting with those clickbait thumbnails putting SciFi planes in where they have no business being! Your videos are good enough to not need that!

[@mike4480]

Thanks for bringing this to our attention and explaining the concept behind it…

[@oneshotme]

I enjoyed your video and I gave it a Thumbs Up

[@6or7breadsticks]

Music so loud i litterly cant hear you, please drop the music with nonfiction

[@charlesblithfield6182]

Blended wing bodies will be a hard if not impossible sell in commercial passenger aviation because of the theatre style seating and lack of windows.

[@williamzk9083]

The Junkers G38 of the 20s/30s had windows in the leading edge. Once big problem is that when these aircraft bank and if you are a passenger at the wing tip you will experience motion and maybe motion sickness.

[@spectator3308]

I suggest you also analyze the work of Vincent Justus Burnelli, an American aerospace engineer, inventor and visionary. As far as BWB is concerned, SR-71, F-15, B-1, B-2, B-21, F-22 and even F-117 are various embodiements of this concept, although not optimized for fuel economy, but rather for speed/payload/stealth. Many X-planes also fit this description.

[@pobybuf]

What are the considerations given to help prevent air sickness? Is the angle of bank made when the plane is turning will be considerable? And you are off-center because you're no longer in the cylinder.😮

[@ascherlafayette8572]

No it's basically the same

[@WhyInnovate]

Make it for private jets first, smaller no problem with airports, more fuel efficiency means more range,

[@jdogdarkness]

Bra, the soundtrack is louder than the speaker...

[@snowness110]

Please turn down the background music in post production. Around minute 3 I could not hear you over the music.

[@ristube3319]

2:59 Anyone else have a flashback when Cmdr. Chakotay spoke of “Dreadnaught?!” I’m actually watching Voyager now 😂

[@RJDKHS96]

Once again, the background music is too loud and over-powers the narration. Not sure why this continues to be an issue in your latest videos...just test ahead of time and get this resolved!

[@danielsundberg1977]

"Background " music made it near impossible to hear the narrator!

[@tmseh]

Wayne Industries has takenn the lead on next generation airframes.

[@stickplayer2]

The background music keeps overriding the voiceover, making parts of this too annoying to watch.

[@EagleFighterJet]

great video

[@jasonbailey3709]

Let's have low emission planes drop explosive devices

[@davidyoung9635]

Must agree music is killing the content.

[@getinthespace7715]

The lifting body, blended wing with top mounted engines is very interesting. Would make it completely silent on approach wouldn't hear it until the aircraft has already passed.

[@floycewhite6991]

Are you kidding? Sound travels out in every direction from its source. The only way you wouldn't hear it coming is if it were supersonic. Then you'd hear something! Besides, the sky has a roaring sound all day and into the evening from jet traffic.

[@getinthespace7715]

@@floycewhite6991, lol. No. That's not even close to true. A vast majority of the energy and sound is directed out the back of a jet engine. You've never been to an airshow and seen a B2 fly by? You'll have a similar effect. You hear nothing until it goes by. The sound is largely blocked from body of the plane and directed up. NASA is currently looking to use this same technique to reduce the severity of sonic booms from supersonic aircraft. Leaving a smooth clean bottom and putting the engines on top of the aircraft shifts regions for shock wave formation to the top directing those Shockwaves up. An experiment for you... Stand in front of a wall and yell at it... Does the sound go through the wall or back at you making you feel wrong.

[@MikeySan5127]

Agree that engine noise and exhaust noise will be mostly deflected upwards. Modern turbofan engines create a high velocity air flow around the exhaust that shrouds and contains most exhaust noise unless you are directly behind it. In a nose high attitude, those noise levels can still be a problem in climb out and landing.@@getinthespace7715

[@floycewhite6991]

@@getinthespace7715 I suppose you forgot that, because of decades of government regulations, jet engines are designed to spread noise across the whole spectrum, and fool your ears into believing they're less noisy.

[@jeromebarry1741]

The commercial passenger BWB concept suffers from having exceptionally long evacuation times during emergency. Until emergency evacuation times can get down to the tube and wing standard, the BWB will not be used for commercial passenger transport.

[@oldmanfromscenetwentyfour8164]

Music is a bit too loud.

[@lowandslow3939]

The soundtrack was so loud at times, I could not hear your voice well enough to comprehend what was being said.

[@gorethegreat]

Background music is too loud. I can’t hear the narrator clearly. Please fix and stop ruining this channel.

[@Cluelesssomethinsomething]

The music was a little too loud this time. But love your stuff!

[@sundragon7703]

Airline companies are not willing to sacrifice the number of available gates to accommodate the footprints of a BWB airliners. Many of the airports that these companies use cannot expand. The cities next to these ports have over the years have eventually engulfed these airports, thus restricting the expansion. It's also obvious that no airline company will willingly give up gates when there is a queue on the taxiway for gates. (It's about frequency, not just capacity/aircraft.)

[@ryanhall9877]

Music is WAY too loud

[@JohnDarkDarkaisa]

That background music made me think: "I should check the comments..."

[@MrTomcatt310]

Nice topic however the audio mixing is off as the ambient track is far too loud - unbareable i'm afraid

[@comment8767]

"...escalating global temperatures?" DOPEY.

[@MetsanAsukas]

The sound and background music production in this video is very harsh and poorly done. Love the channel just heads up. Seems unusual for you guys.

[@greggweber9967]

Not just airports, but also building and assembling such wide "bodies" in an assembly building. I suspect that more assembly will be done at each station.

[@guyh.4553]

Turn down the "background" music. It's drowning you out

[@chris4973]

Sounds like an ideal tool moving into our totalitarian future

Music covers the narration in places. Great piece, though.

[@milnez]

Cool content, but that volume on the backing track is a bit much…

[@kaesardb]

Stop the thumbnail clickbait.

[@MAGAman-uy7wh]

Ditto to @mike4480 and a question. Why isn't vectored thrust envisioned for the military models? Commercial aircraft would not need it but the military versions might benefit greatly from thrust vectoring for increased maneuverability.

[@PoorlyPlaying]

I’m assuming the model we see in the video is only really meant to be a larger aircraft for things like cargo transport/fueling, electronic warfare, early warning radar, etc. Those planes don’t really need to maneuver super hard, and even if they did it would likely overload the wings. Those things are super thin, and I have a hard time imaging they’d hold up too well in high G maneuvers.

[@derekaldrich330]

Interesting thought, but the weight and wasted energy compromises for thrust vectoring would negate the aerodynamic advantages of a BWB or flying wing. Also something to consider, BWB and flying wings are inherently unstable around the vertical axis, and thrust vectoring would exacerbate that on a platform where stability is desired, unlike fighter aircraft.

[@Will-W]

Good grief, I'm not willing to turn the volume off and watch with subtitles.

[@ristube3319]

4:13 Looks about as close to the “Batwing” in the first Batman movie in 1989 as any real aircraft ever has (but with propellers obviously)

[@bluewater454]

OMG🙄 When I start hearing climate nonsense buzzwords like “sustainability” applied to our military I know it’s just a matter of time before we screw ourselves.

[@jonnyfatboy7563]

revolutionary.. the flying wing has been a staple part of the US air force for nearly 100 years! 😅

[@InquisitiveBaldMan]

Dont they have a larger cross sectional area when compared to a flying pencil with the maximum aspect ratio? Surely a maximum stretch of a fuselage is the best way to improve efficiency in relation to drag. I only see this as relevant in planes that have to be small, maybe a c130 replacement or smaller. Maybe not even that big. Its the reason they say the celera 500l is only scalable up to a certain size, i thought.

you forgot the Horton 229.

[@derekaldrich330]

A mere oversight, I'm sure. I'll fill in the blanks. A revolutionary aircraft of which only one was completed that killed its test pilot on the third flight. Some consider it to be the first "stealth" aircraft, but any reduction in RCS was accidental and mostly to do with being a flying wing. Beautiful to look at but poorly engeneered. The Horten brothers fled to Argentina near VE Day and spent the rest of their lives trying to convince anyone who would listen to invest in their continued work towards a supersonic flying wing, which is as ludicrous as it sounds.
