What kind of fighter is this, what kind of fighter is this?

This is not a fighter, it is a high-altitude reconnaissance aircraft.

SR-71 Blackbird reconnaissance aircraft, American.

I believe that many people must be familiar with it, as the main equipment of the Air Force, the role of fighter aircraft in modern warfare is increasing, but all friends who know something about the Air Force should know that the most core technology for fighter jets is the engine it is equipped with, and in the impression of the vast majority of people, a fighter jet is generally equipped with one to two engines, but have you ever thought about how many engines a fighter can carry at most?

In fact, many people may think that two engines are already the limit of the aircraft, after all, in the air force today, in addition to those bombers and transport aircraft, because of the special needs of the engine requirements, other fighters only use two engines at most, so two engines for fighters is already the most, but do you know? During the Cold War, the US military developed a fighter jet with 15 engines.

And he is Lockheed Martin, developed on the basis of the F104 fighter.

CL-704 VTOL fighter, and its own improvement method is also very simple and crude, that is, the original F-104 fighter on both sides of the wingtip drop tank, replaced by the engine for vertical take-off and landing, and in order to ensure that this aircraft has enough lift, Loma company is fully equipped with 7 vertical downward Rolls-Royce engines for each wingtip, so as to achieve the ability of vertical take-off and landing of fighters, which means that this CL-704 VTOL fighter, Including its own main power engine, it had 15 engines, which was the most engines of a fighter during this period, but for some reason, this fighter did not really take shape, and only made a model machine for blowing.

It seems to be X-15, American. It uses a ramjet engine.

NASA's X15 series demonstrators, which set a lot of absolute records for flight altitude and speed in the 60s, hold it to this day.

I guess it's the X series technology verification machine.

I've seen it, this is the American technical calibrator x15It's not a fighter jet, it can reach 6 times the speed of sound, and the plane is so fast that it gets up to 704 degrees Celsius!

F-18C "Night Attack Hornet" fighter jet

The F-18 is a carrier-based single-seat twin-engine supersonic multi-purpose combat attack aircraft developed by McDonnell Douglas for the US Navy.

The F A-18C is a single-seater model purchased from FY 1986 onwards and is designed for night attacks. Capable of launching AIM-120 AMRAAM air-to-air missiles, AGM-65F infrared Mavericks, and AGM-84 Harpoon anti-ship missiles. The main difference between the F A-18C and the F A-18A is the use of an airborne self-defense jammer, reconnaissance equipment, a new "universal air life-saving system" ejection seat, a new on-board computer, a flight fault recorder and a surveillance system.

The Model C was replaced with Martin Baker's Navy Crew Universal Ejection Seat (NACES), an improved mission computer, an airborne self-defense jammer, and a flight accident recording and surveillance system.

Early model F A-81C of the VFA-18 squadron - cockpit interior.

The F18 Hornet is a carrier-based single-seat twin-engine supersonic multi-role combat attack aircraft developed by McDonnell Douglas for the US Navy.

To put it simply, it is a military aircraft whose main purpose is to seize air supremacy.

It seems that there is no F-18 with missiles and aerial bombs on board.

F A-18 A or C in one.

Type A and Type C are exactly the same in appearance.

So there's no way to know which one it is.

I can't see it very clearly, it should be the Su-30MK2
