00:28The battlefields of the future will be more dangerous than ever.
00:33Music
00:40Wars will still be fought on land and sea.
00:44But they will not be defeated without air supremacy.
00:48Enter the incredible world of 21st-century combat.
00:51A world of unparalleled maneuverability, superior weapons and sights, unmanned aircraft, and stealth technology.
01:01This is the air power of the future.
01:17Air power is the strategic force of domination.
01:21It is air power that allows us to influence and react to events quickly.
01:26It is what allows us to fight a war without having to put thousands of people on the ground.
01:32The U.S. Air Force's F-15 Eagle has won more aerial battles than any other fighter jet.
01:39American.
01:40And the Navy's F-18 Hornet is recognized as the best carrier-based fighter-bomber in the world.
01:48But in the future, neither the F-15 nor even the F-18 will be able to survive against the advance of...
01:54technology and the creation of deadly anti-aircraft missiles.
01:57Surface-to-surface missiles will pose the greatest threat to the S-AMS system.
02:02These formidable systems developed in Russia or China will have to be quickly taken out of action in any conflict.
02:08in the future.
02:11The fighter jet of the future will have to be multi-tasking.
02:15Invisible to evade enemy radar.
02:18Armed with heavy artillery to destroy anti-aircraft installations.
02:22It is capable of fighting and destroying any enemy fighter jet.
02:31The fighter jet of the future already exists.
02:35The F-22 Raptor.
02:37The 21st-century air dominance fighter.
02:46Developed by the US aerospace company Lockheed Martin,
02:50This advanced tactical fighter was designed to be the first aircraft to cross enemy lines and clear a path to...
02:56other combat forces.
03:03The F-22 is both an air-to-air fighter and a surface-to-air fighter.
03:07That's why he can launch weapons with precision.
03:11He is capable of entering at the start of a conflict, destroying all enemy air defense lines, and also
03:17to eliminate some targets on the ground.
03:19And to clear the way for all U.S. forces, whether ground vehicles or other aircraft, to enter and continue the
03:26fight.
03:30The creation of the F-22 Raptor took place in 1985, when the United States Air Force began developing a
03:38new generation of tactical fighter jets,
03:40specifically to replace the F-15 as a superior fighter jet.
03:44American military designers feared that the older F-15 would not be able to face the next generation of fighters.
03:51air and ground threats.
03:52The result was the creation of the F-22.
03:55The capabilities of this aircraft represent a sudden leap forward.
03:59Compared to what exists now, it will revolutionize air power and take it to a whole new level.
04:05The common denominator in the future of air power will be stealth technology.
04:11crucial for aircraft to evade enemy radar.
04:14Non-stealth aircraft will not survive in the aerial battles of the future.
04:24Stealth technology was created to compete with the technological advances of radar.
04:30The information provided by the radar allows the enemy to locate, track, and attack an aircraft.
04:38But a stealth aircraft is designed to absorb or confuse radio waves, making it nearly invisible to radar.
04:46The first aircraft produced using stealth technology in the world was the Lockheed F-117 Nighthawk.
04:53The aircraft is faceted due to the limitations of computing technology at the time.
04:58It's easier to model a limited number of flat surfaces than a lot of curved surfaces.
05:05Although the aircraft was an innovation at the time, its unusual shape limited its aerodynamics.
05:11But today, thanks to technological advances and more powerful computers,
05:16Engineers can design aircraft that don't need to sacrifice aerodynamics for invisibility.
05:22The F-22's aerodynamic design allows it to have the lowest drag of almost any aircraft ever.
05:29developed.
05:31The F-22's aerodynamic superiority, combined with its stealth and firepower,
05:37This makes him a more powerful opponent than any other.
05:41Although the F-15, which will be replaced by the F-22, was a very successful fighter jet for the United States.
05:47United,
05:48He is not invisible to radar.
05:49The F-117 Nighthawk is stealth, but it lacks aerial artillery and is therefore unsuitable for air combat.
05:58He can only rely on his invisibility and on planning before the mission to protect himself.
06:04On the other hand, the F-22 is not only invisible, but it also carries all air-to-air and air-to-ground artillery.
06:12The main armament is located in the weapons bays beneath the aircraft, where we carry six medium-range guided missiles.
06:19radar.
06:20Carrying the weapons internally preserves the fighter jet's invisible surface.
06:26The F-22 has missiles and weapons for short-range combat.
06:32Behind these two doors is the side weapons bay.
06:35This is where we load the heat-seeking missiles.
06:43For short-range artillery, the Raptor is equipped with the M61A2 cannon.
06:47The mouth is hidden behind this door.
06:49It remains hidden due to the aircraft's stealth characteristics.
06:53The cannon holds 480 rounds of ammunition and has the capacity to fire 0 shots per second.
06:59The F-22's advanced weapons system will make it a formidable air-to-air fighter.
07:05In addition to its unique ability to locate enemy aircraft without revealing its own position.
07:11In the past, when aircraft used their radar, they became visible to any radar system in the area.
07:18But that's not the case with the F-22.
07:21Perhaps the greatest technology in this fighter jet is the radome itself.
07:24The radome not only has to be invisible, but it must also transmit and receive its own radar signals.
07:31The method by which the F-22's radar accomplishes this formidable feat is classified, according to the United States military.
07:39But what is known is that the F-22 can spot enemy aircraft at a distance, while remaining invisible to them.
07:45The same.
07:46Enemies can only spot an F-22 in the area when one of them explodes.
07:53An encouraging fact for the United States, which will encourage the creation of a new generation of similar aircraft.
08:00with the competition between military designers from around the world to build the most advanced fighter jets of the future.
08:07Afterburners accelerate the speed by injecting fuel directly into the engine flames, increasing thrust by 50% or more.
08:16more.
08:18But afterburners consume a huge amount of fuel, radically affecting the range and duration of the mission.
08:25a fighter jet.
08:27The F-22 does not use afterburners, so it doesn't have this problem.
08:31It has a supersonic cruise flight speed of one and a half times the speed of sound, more than 1,600 km per kilometer.
08:38time.
08:40The goal is for our pilots to be able to be fast while minimizing their exposure time to any threat.
08:48May they accomplish the mission they were sent on and return home safely.
08:56To achieve such speeds without the use of afterburners, the F-22 was equipped with a special set of
09:02engines.
09:06Pratt & Whitney's goal was to design the transformational engine that the air force needed, one that would be invisible.
09:14with autonomy and speed.
09:16The F-119 PW-100 engine was developed by Pratt & Whitney, a leading American technology company.
09:24air.
09:26It sets a new standard for jet engines.
09:30In addition to its incredible supersonic capability, the F-119 engine incorporates thrust vectoring.
09:37This is the rear of the F-22 Raptor.
09:39The first thing we notice are the nozzles for the F-119 engines.
09:43In flight, during a combat maneuver, they move and direct the engine's propulsion to provide maneuverability.
09:50This helps us to evade any enemy, to maneuver at low or high speed,
09:57to mislead other aircraft or an enemy weapon that might be targeting us.
10:05Supersonic cruise flight and thrust vectoring are formidable advances.
10:10But its most remarkable feature may be its ability to fly almost entirely through advanced computer controls.
10:20This relieves the pilot of all tasks and gives him complete freedom to stay focused during aerial combat.
10:29In addition, to monitor its own performance, the F-22 constantly gathers information about other aircraft in the combat area.
10:37and transmits the information to the pilot.
10:42We receive information transmitted from unmanned vehicles or external sensors.
10:46This allows us to integrate information and use that information against the target.
10:50This is how we will direct our forces in conflicts.
10:53We will be more integrated with other services and other platforms.
10:57And the F-22 fits perfectly into this concept.
11:02The complete F-22 Raptor package of avionics, stealth, supersonic cruise flight, and thrust vectoring guidance.
11:11This makes it the most technologically advanced fighter jet currently available.
11:14But there will be other aircraft in the future that will compete with the F-22.
11:19Like the Russian Sukhoi 37 Super Flanker, which features thrust vectoring and a radical swept-wing design for
11:26front.
11:27And the fifth generation MiG, or 1.22, which some nicknamed the F-22 Ski.
11:32The Russians are still very active aircraft designers.
11:36They possess a variety of technologies that will continue to improve.
11:40And the Russian and American militaries are not the only ones in the race to develop the most advanced aircraft on the planet.
11:48The Swedish JS-39 Gripen was the first multirole fighter jet in service worldwide.
11:54And France is also developing a multirole fighter jet called Rafael.
12:00The United Kingdom joined forces with Germany and Italy to create a European fighter jet called Typhoon.
12:07The F-22 Raptor and the Typhoon are the only two aircraft currently in service in the world capable of flying.
12:14at supersonic cruise.
12:19Welcome to the F-35 Joint Strike Fighter, the ground attack aircraft of the future.
12:28The F-35 is capable of carrying heavy weapons externally for larger missions.
12:33But when carrying a lighter load internally, it's almost as invisible as the extravagant 117 Nighthawk.
12:41It has a significant amount of invisibility to allow it to be used at the start of a campaign.
12:46and has a significant amount of weaponry and payload capacity to be used in the final stages of a
12:51campaign
12:52where the threat to aircraft is not so significant and invisibility is necessary.
12:56Developed jointly by the United States and England, the F-35 was designed with the intention of reducing costs.
13:02It was designed to simultaneously meet the needs of the U.S. Air Force, Navy, and Army.
13:08as well as those of the British Royal Navy and the Royal Air Force.
13:11Aircraft are becoming very expensive, and we need to do something to bring the cost of airplanes down to a reasonable level.
13:17reasonable level.
13:18The F-35 is expected to cost around $40 million, a third of the cost of an F-10.
13:24-22 Raptor.
13:25But would it be possible to create an aircraft structure that would satisfy such varied military requirements?
13:31All armed services needed a stealth bomber for ground attack.
13:36But the Marines and the Royal Navy also needed an aircraft with short takeoff and vertical landing capabilities.
13:42The United States Navy needed an aircraft with larger wings, ground equipment for heavy missions,
13:48A hook for landing on aircraft carriers would be included, and the wings would have to fold to save space on the deck.
13:53The size and scope of the JSF program is very significant.
13:58The aircraft is being designed to replace the F-16 and A-10 for the Air Force.
14:03The AV-AB for the Marine Corps and the FA-18 for the Navy.
14:10Unlike the twin engines of the F-22 Raptor,
14:14The F-25 Joint Strike fighter jet was designed with a single engine to reduce not only costs, but also
14:19the weight.
14:21A lighter aircraft can carry more weapons.
14:26In the Joint Strike fighter jet, one of the secrets to a successful mission is the ability to handle a larger number of ordnance.
14:33and take her to enemy territory.
14:36All of this works better with a single motor.
14:51The United States Air Force version of the Joint Strike fighter jet, the F-35A,
14:56It conducted its first test flight on October 24, 2000.
15:01Tom Morgenfeld, who had been a test pilot for the F-22 Raptor, was at the controls.
15:08A million things go through your head, your eyes scan everything, you're listening and observing.
15:13Your senses are working at an incredible level because you're feeling and experiencing the airplane for the first time.
15:24It flies beautifully; it's certainly a challenge for a pilot.
15:28The initial test went well.
15:33Next, a Navy version was built, equipped for landing on heavy-duty missions.
15:38and with wider wings for the low speeds needed for landing on aircraft carriers.
15:44Navy pilots conducted risky tests.
15:47demonstrating the F-35's ability to land within the deck space of an aircraft carrier.
15:53But the toughest challenge for the F-35 program is yet to come.
15:57The Marine Corps and the Royal Navy needed a version of the Stovall aircraft.
16:02that could perform short takeoffs and vertical landings.
16:05Stovall's skills are very important to the Marine Corps.
16:09Because the plane will go wherever the rest of the forces can reach.
16:12It's not limited to a large runway, it doesn't need a large ship to operate.
16:16Lockheed Martin engineers and designers of the F-35 Joint Strike fighter jet
16:21They conducted a critical analysis of the 8V-8B Harrier.
16:24a project by Bridge Hawker Sidley Harrier.
16:27First built in 1957.
16:30The Harrier is a great aircraft if you consider that it's basically 1960s technology.
16:35The Harrier's ability to take off, glide, and land vertically.
16:39This is due to vector propulsion.
16:41The powerful force of its jet engine is directed downwards.
16:45through the four nozzles that can rotate 90 degrees.
16:48He performs all the extraordinary Stovall maneuvers.
16:51without the help of a bunch of computers.
16:53I was called because I'm a Harrier pilot with almost 1,600 flight hours.
16:57All the things I learned from my experience with the Harrier's operational air structure.
17:02I was able to bring it into the program and use it to improve the Stovall version of the X-35.
17:07To achieve gliding, the engineers created a radical new system.
17:13They complemented the vector propulsion method.
17:16attaching the jet engine to a suspension rod
17:18that could hold the exhaust fan to blow air downwards.
17:23In 1991 we introduced this rod-suspended ventilation system to the technical world.
17:30Some people said
17:31Are you kidding? Are you serious?
17:35The suspended fan requires doors that can open behind the pilot.
17:40on top and underneath the plane
17:41to absorb more air.
17:43The fan can blow air downwards from midships.
17:46while the fighter jet's nose cone at the rear moves
17:49blowing the powerful flow downwards
17:51creating a balanced lifting force.
17:54The rod-suspended ventilation system
17:57It allows you to direct much more energy.
18:00than what the engine is producing.
18:02But attaching the jet engine to a propulsion rod
18:05It was something extremely difficult.
18:07The mechanical energy we were dealing with
18:09with the propulsion rod ventilation system
18:11It was very big.
18:13We had 28,000 horsepower.
18:15being transmitted from the propulsion rod
18:17from the main motor to the suspended fan.
18:19And that's similar to the power of a
18:22United States destroyer.
18:27The capacity of suspension fans
18:29mixing large quantities of cold air
18:31with hot exhaust
18:32It offers another important benefit.
18:35One of the things we learned from JSF
18:38It was to combine jet exhaust.
18:40to achieve a combined temperature
18:42lower than that of the Harrier.
18:44This way, we can avoid problems with the concrete.
18:47because it could catch fire and explode
18:50with the high temperature and high exhaust of the Harrier.
18:59In the Lockheed Martin company's test facility.
19:01in Palmdale, California,
19:03the revolutionary suspended ventilation system
19:06It was put to the ultimate test in the air.
19:09If the suspended fan failed during gliding,
19:11The plane could crash.
19:21Its first flight was in 2001.
19:24And it was a complete success.
19:27After that, the people who said
19:29for years it was never going to work
19:32They fell silent.
19:34It worked out.
19:37Now, all three versions of the F-35,
19:40one from the United States Air Force,
19:42another one from the Navy and an Estovall version.
19:44for the British marines,
19:46are being developed and tested
19:48for mass production.
19:49The United States, England, and their allies
19:52They expect to order the manufacturing.
19:54of more than 4,000 Joint Strike fighter jets,
19:56which will replace most fighter-bombers
19:58Americans currently in service.
20:00Handling qualities
20:02And the performance is sensational.
20:04It's a really special plane.
20:06You become a boy again.
20:07It's a pilot's dream.
20:09In the aerial combat of the future,
20:11fighter jets like the F-22
20:12will be used to establish
20:14Air supremacy.
20:15Many stealth bombers,
20:17like the F-35 Joint Strike fighter jet,
20:20will come next,
20:20using its charging capacity
20:22superior weapons for attacking
20:24crucial targets on land
20:25The Joint Strike fighter jet will be the support aircraft.
20:29for transporting cargo.
20:31He will be the muscular part.
20:32of the supporting forces.
20:35Commanders will also be able to change
20:37an F-35 mission in the air
20:39when the situation changes during a fight.
20:42There are many ways to operate the F-35.
20:44to bring information from external platforms,
20:47other planes flying over the battlefield,
20:49Valuable information from satellites and the ground.
20:52All this information can be displayed
20:54to the pilot in the cockpit
20:55and will allow him to be more tactical.
20:57and coordinate the combat tactics for that day.
20:59instead of worrying about the details
21:01to pilot the plane.
21:03The pilot's job
21:04to supervise the process
21:06to identify the target
21:07and then coordinate the launching of the weapons.
21:17The Joint Strike fighter jet
21:19will be able to charge
21:20a wide variety of weapons,
21:22including the heaviest weaponry
21:23like Bunker Busters bombs
21:25one ton
21:26and explosive weapons
21:28one ton.
21:30Bunker Busters bombs
21:32one ton
21:33of the Joint Strike fighter jet
21:34and explosive weapons
21:35They are guided to the target.
21:37with millimeter precision
21:38with the J-DAM tail kit,
21:40which are direct attack munitions.
21:42J-DAM is a component for the sight.
21:44which can be attached to any pump.
21:46It's like a brain.
21:47that teaches driving
21:48with movable tail fins
21:50to guide her to the target.
21:52The bomb knows the plane's coordinates.
21:55and also knows the coordinates of the target.
21:57And when the weapon is launched from the plane,
21:59she simply flies
22:00from one set of coordinates to another
22:02and does the job
22:03when it hits the target.
22:07The J-DAM system
22:08It is guided by GPS.
22:10That's why it manages to hit the target.
22:12with any level of visibility.
22:14We use it.
22:16to work against targets
22:17which we cannot normally see,
22:19whether due to the weather,
22:20smoke, fog
22:22or something else
22:23that is obscuring the target.
22:36When a J-DAM system crashes,
22:39your Inertial Clock
22:40maintains the trail of its position.
22:42and signals the tail
22:43to make adjustments to the course,
22:45directing it towards the target.
22:50The precision of modern weapons
22:52such as J-DAM systems
22:53They will help reduce
22:54unnecessary side effects.
22:57This also makes the F-35
22:58a weapons system
23:00even more formidable.
23:01Modern weapons
23:03like the J-DAM
23:04They really reduce
23:05the need
23:05of a series of elements
23:06and this reduces the risk
23:07because we didn't stay
23:08so exposed
23:09to the enemy threat.
23:13The F-35 combination
23:15advanced weaponry,
23:16avionics
23:17and invisibility
23:18will help ensure
23:19your success
23:20on the battlefields
23:21of the future.
23:22Military designers
23:24they imagined
23:25if these same characteristics
23:26could be incorporated
23:28in a helicopter.
23:29They wanted an invisible helicopter.
23:31but it would be possible
23:32Build one?
23:40in the last 50 years
23:42helicopters evolved
23:44of slow vehicles
23:45support
23:45for aircraft
23:46fast attack
23:47front line.
23:49But in wars
23:50technologies of the future
23:52only the speed
23:53It will not be enough.
23:54The information
23:55It will be the secret.
23:56There are three elements.
23:58crucial
23:58in a military operation.
23:59The ability
24:00of you knowing
24:01more than an enemy,
24:02the ability to maneuver
24:03quickly approaching
24:04to the enemy
24:05and gather more information
24:07about him
24:07and the ability
24:08firepower
24:09I need to fight against the enemy.
24:12In the conflicts of the future,
24:14after the fighter jets
24:15like the F-22 Raptor
24:17and the invisible bombers
24:18like the F-35 Joint Strike
24:20to clear the way,
24:21attack helicopters
24:22and surveillance
24:23They will support the ground troops.
24:25that advance
24:25to conquer the area.
24:28The best thing to do is fly.
24:30very low,
24:30Below the combat.
24:31It's better to stay
24:32below
24:33where there is no threat.
24:35But at high altitudes
24:36so low,
24:37the helicopters
24:38They become vulnerable.
24:38to a series
24:39weapons
24:40to the earth.
24:41They are exposed.
24:43to all systems
24:44simple weapons,
24:44unguided rockets,
24:46surface missiles
24:47and has to escape
24:48of all of that.
24:50In the United States,
24:51military designers
24:52They responded to that threat.
24:54with a dual strategy.
24:56Cheap helicopters,
24:57disposable
24:57and unmanned
24:58and helicopters
24:59Invisible manned vehicles.
25:02The helicopters
25:03unmanned
25:04They will mainly
25:05used for surveillance
25:07and to gather information
25:08about the target.
25:10The Fire Scout,
25:11designed by the company
25:12North American
25:13Northrop Grumman,
25:14it was specifically
25:15developed
25:16to take off
25:17and land
25:17on navy ships.
25:19But the secret
25:20to create a helicopter
25:21manned
25:22successful
25:22for the battles
25:23of the future
25:24it's to make it
25:24invisible
25:25like the F-22.
25:27Is that possible?
25:28Invisibility
25:29in a helicopter
25:30It's different.
25:31on an aircraft
25:31fixed-wing.
25:32Do you care?
25:33with different details.
25:35Reflexivity
25:35from the radar,
25:36infrared
25:37the noise,
25:38all things
25:39who can report
25:40the position of the aircraft.
25:42Such details
25:43like heat,
25:44smoke
25:44and noise
25:45they place the helicopters
25:46and their pilots
25:47in great danger
25:48on a battlefield.
25:50All missiles
25:51small
25:51shoulder fire
25:52which are very effective
25:53against helicopters
25:54are systems
25:55infra-red
25:55searching for warmth.
25:58The challenge
25:59for engineers
26:00it was to create a helicopter
26:01silent
26:02with few features
26:03and a cross-section
26:05with a small radar.
26:07That was exactly it.
26:08what the manufacturer
26:09Sikorsky
26:10did with the new
26:11Comanche RH-66.
26:15In the Comanche
26:16with the ability
26:17of invisibility
26:18we can defeat
26:19radar threats.
26:20We can defeat
26:21the guy
26:22with the missile
26:23searching for heat
26:23ground launch
26:25and the guy
26:26that appears on the tree.
26:27Our agility
26:28You can defeat him.
26:29Small size
26:30and the lack of noise
26:31They are an asset.
26:33The first thing
26:34which we always notice
26:35in a helicopter
26:36it's the sound
26:36from the conveyor belt
26:37main rotor
26:37hitting the treadmill
26:38of the tail rotor.
26:44in the Comanche
26:45in the Comanche
26:46the tail propeller
26:47It is armored.
26:48that's why
26:48there is no interaction
26:49between the steel
26:50of the propeller
26:51and the tips
26:51main
26:52of the rotor.
26:53She also
26:53It's a little bit
26:54lighter
26:54and all of that
26:55contributes
26:56to reduce
26:57the problem
26:57acoustic
26:58of the noise.
27:00The engineers
27:01They also tested it.
27:02the main rotor
27:03to find
27:04a design
27:05quieter.
27:07If you notice
27:08in the Comanche
27:09you will see that he
27:09It has a rotor.
27:10five blades
27:10what he does
27:11It's cutting off the sound.
27:12Chop, chop, chop, chop
27:13normal helicopter
27:14for a buzzing
27:15more discreet
27:16that blends
27:16in the environment.
27:21Reduce the problem
27:22heat from the helicopter
27:24It's another secret.
27:24to make it
27:25less detectable
27:26and more skillful
27:27to survive.
27:29When we look
27:29a Comanche
27:30the first thing
27:31what we asked
27:31That's where the exhaust fan is.
27:32where does it come out
27:33all the hot air
27:34of the engine.
27:36Hot air
27:36of the Comanche
27:37in truth
27:38it comes out through the rumble
27:39of the tail
27:39where is instantly
27:41cold
27:41through the cold air
27:42of the rotor.
27:44A missile
27:44you have to
27:45something
27:45to hunt
27:46that's the premise
27:47from the search
27:48due to heat.
27:49The Comanche
27:49undress
27:50due to exhaustion
27:51of the engine
27:51that mixes
27:52with ambient air
27:53cooling
27:54so it doesn't exist
27:55more the trail
27:56heat
27:56that the missile
27:57it needs
27:57to follow
27:58the target.
27:59To defeat
28:00the radar
28:00the Comanche
28:01uses the secrets
28:02of invisibility
28:03developed
28:04for the F-117
28:05Nighthawk.
28:06There are none.
28:07direct angles
28:07radar reflectors
28:08on the outer fuselage
28:10and all the weapons
28:11are loaded
28:12internally
28:12to help
28:13to maintain
28:13its invisible form.
28:15The interesting thing
28:16about the Comanche
28:17It's just that some details
28:18that allow
28:19invisibility
28:20They also improve.
28:21the aircraft.
28:22Things like
28:23the retractable landing gear
28:24and the bays
28:25retractable weapons
28:26all of this
28:26This makes it more agile.
28:27and fast.
28:28When you incorporate
28:29the invisibility part
28:30you win by default
28:31exceptional qualities.
28:32For the military
28:33Americans
28:34the main function
28:35of the Comanche
28:36is to offer
28:37to the commanders
28:37an overview
28:38from the battlefield
28:39providing information
28:40Every minute.
28:41The Comanche
28:42It's going to be basically
28:43The cavalry of the Tsars.
28:44He will locate it.
28:45and launch
28:46to penetrate and invade.
28:47It's an aircraft.
28:47Recognition.
28:49While the pilots
28:50of the Comanche
28:51collect information
28:52the computer
28:53pass it on
28:53such information
28:54to the support forces.
28:56When the Comanche
28:57locates an enemy
28:58he is heading
28:59like a defender
29:00to launch
29:01its firepower
29:01and defeat the enemy.
29:18The advances
29:19in engineering
29:20they also became
29:21the Comanche
29:21one of the helicopters
29:22easier to fly.
29:25The Comanche
29:26there is one thing
29:26that the previous generation
29:27by helicopter
29:28failed to develop
29:29which is the ability
29:30of the pilot
29:31to be able to maneuver it
29:32on any axis
29:32virtually
29:33without fear
29:34to surpass
29:35any limit.
29:38Although it is used
29:39mainly
29:40for recognition
29:41the Comanche
29:42He will also be armed.
29:43for self-defense.
29:45The Comanche
29:46is capable of carrying
29:47an incredible number
29:48weapons
29:48from guided missiles
29:50that they use
29:50a laser guidance system
29:52search missiles
29:53by heat
29:53that would
29:54another weapon
29:55AR-AR
29:56unguided rockets
29:57and also
29:57the Hellfire missile.
29:59That's a lot of artillery.
30:00heavy in combat.
30:03Furthermore
30:04the Comanche pilots
30:05they can ask
30:06aircraft
30:07support
30:07to launch
30:08missiles in your direction
30:09and then
30:10They can guide them.
30:10manually
30:11even their records.
30:15if the Comanche
30:17suffers some damage
30:18your system
30:18computers
30:19it achieves
30:20often
30:20repair
30:21alone
30:21the problems
30:22recovering
30:23vital functions
30:24to assist
30:24computers.
30:25This is where it is located.
30:26the brain
30:27computerized
30:28of the Comanche
30:33to provide support
30:35on a mission
30:35recognition
30:36the Comanche
30:37is capable
30:37to control
30:38up to five
30:38aircraft
30:39unmanned
30:41When the Comanche
30:43It is in operation.
30:44can launch
30:44aircraft
30:45small
30:46like this
30:46he will have eyes
30:47watching over the mountains
30:49and you will be able to see
30:49what is happening
30:50without exposing oneself
30:52into danger.
30:54In addition to launching
30:55their own
30:56aircraft
30:56unmanned
30:57the Comanche
30:58can be helped

31:10It's about 80 centimeters long.
31:12It weighs a little more.
31:1345 kilograms
31:14It carries a single warhead.
31:16It has a laser radar.
31:17in other words
31:18It has a laser beam.
31:19scanning
31:20that generates images
31:22Local systems
31:23They can even communicate.
31:24each other
31:25and cooperate
31:26in searches
31:26and attacks
31:29You may have
31:30a swarm
31:30of crazy
31:31each one has
31:32your own vision
31:33and each one
31:34thinks alone
31:35But they communicate.
31:36with each other
31:37and these weapons
31:38with the sensors
31:39low cost
31:40they can fly
31:41between buildings
31:42and in locations
31:43of different targets
31:44They can send images.
31:46for operators
31:47who can use them
31:48like probes
31:49surveillance
31:50or as weapons
31:51properly speaking
31:59Interconnecting the aircraft
32:00on the battlefield
32:02with platforms
32:02surveillance
32:03and other weapons systems
32:04the commanders
32:05They can change missions.
32:06quickly
32:07to take advantage
32:08of the information
32:09constantly changing
32:10The secret
32:11of the air battle
32:12of the future
32:13It will not be invisibility.
32:14speed
32:14or firepower
32:15will be the information
32:20UAVs
32:21aerial vehicles
32:22unmanned
32:23they will be able to provide
32:24large part
32:25this information
32:26while they fly
32:27on missions
32:27surveillance
32:28long lasting
32:29Then
32:30why the aircraft
32:31of the future
32:31Do you need pilots?
32:34UAVs
32:35for sure
32:36They will change.
32:36air power
32:37in the 21st century
32:39We're already seeing it.
32:41this happening
32:41today
32:42But this is just the beginning.
32:43because there will be
32:45many others
32:45and they will be
32:46much better
32:49Aircraft
32:50unmanned
32:51allow the military
32:52Do more with less.
32:53more aircraft are being put into service
32:54in the air of what would be possible
32:55because of the number
32:56limited number of pilots
32:57that you need to have
32:58otherwise
32:59It would be very risky.
33:05In the future
33:06aircraft
33:07unmanned
33:07they will carry out the missions
33:09combat
33:09most dangerous
33:12Today
33:12UAVs
33:13They are already taking over.
33:14the role of scouts
33:16long lasting
33:16The UAV has no father.
33:19not even mother
33:19you lose a UAV
33:20in combat
33:21and nobody suffers
33:22a scratch
33:25One of the first
33:27once
33:27surveillance
33:28from the United States
33:29It was the Predator.
33:30No pilot
33:31wants to fly over
33:32a hot zone
33:33war
33:33for 12
33:34much less
33:34for 24 hours
33:35It works very well.
33:37on the battlefield
33:39In Afghanistan
33:40The Predator
33:41was able
33:41to provide
33:42crucial information
33:43in real time
33:44for the coalition
33:45American leader
33:46And it was there.
33:47that the Predator
33:47it transformed
33:48aircraft
33:49surveillance
33:50on aircraft
33:50armed air strike
33:52He fired.
33:53a Hellfire missile
33:54on a train
33:54of Al-Qaeda
33:55and destroyed
33:56one of the vehicles
33:56At that moment
33:57he crossed the line
33:58going from one
33:58unmanned aircraft
33:59for an aircraft
34:00combat
34:01unmanned
34:04At the moment
34:04the new Predator
34:05B can carry
34:06up to 10 missiles
34:07Hellfire
34:08but its function
34:09main
34:10it is still what
34:10the military
34:11Americans
34:12They call it IVR.
34:13or information
34:14surveillance
34:15and recognition
34:16It's basically
34:18a satellite
34:19of the poor
34:19You can take it.
34:20to the location
34:21and leave it
34:21search the area
34:24UAVs
34:25transmit
34:26visual information
34:27to the commanders
34:27on the battlefield
34:28via satellite
34:29or by others
34:30information links
34:35UAVs
34:36recognition
34:37There are countless ways.
34:38to carry out
34:39a mission
34:40surveillance
34:40On clear days
34:41they use
34:42optical lenses
34:43stabilizers
34:44with zoom
34:45for expansion
34:45from the image
34:46At night
34:47They use infrared.
34:48and under adverse conditions
34:50They use radar.
34:51synthetic opening
34:52to drill
34:52the densest clouds
34:54storms
34:54and even smoke
34:55fuel
34:57When the radar
34:58is reflected
34:59it can also be used
35:00to create an image
35:01three-dimensional
35:02of the objects
35:03If the enemy
35:04choose to use
35:05countermeasures
35:06baits
35:06and techniques
35:07of dissimulation
35:07have to defeat
35:08three systems
35:09It's much more difficult.
35:10that defeating one
35:12Success
35:13from the United States
35:14with the Predator
35:15opened the way
35:15for development
35:16from a van
35:17even more advanced
35:18a jet vehicle
35:20for high altitudes
35:21called Global Hawk
35:23But on the contrary
35:25of the Predator
35:25it was designed
35:26to take off
35:27flying on a mission
35:28pre-programmed
35:29and land autonomously
35:30thanks to GPS
35:32or positioning system
35:33via satellite
35:37The Global Hawk
35:38It's basically
35:39a much larger version
35:39of the Predator
35:40He has more autonomy.
35:41for high altitudes
35:42greater payload
35:43It carries more sensors.
35:45has more devices
35:46communication
35:46and it can fly over
35:48a battlefield
35:48for up to 35 hours
35:50The Global Hawk
35:51can remain in the air
35:52for a day or more
35:54providing constant
35:55video surveillance
35:56in real time
35:57about 250 thousand
35:59kilometers
35:59enemy territory
36:00The Predator
36:01and the Global Hawk
36:02They give us an insight.
36:03detailed superior
36:04something that cannot be achieved
36:06normally
36:06It's like a system
36:07satellite
36:08Although it still is
36:09under development
36:10the Global Hawk
36:11had an impact
36:11dramatic
36:12in the recent war
36:13from Iraq
36:14A single prototype
36:15provided information
36:16to the Allied forces
36:17about 55%
36:19of all targets
36:20sensitive to time
36:21including the launchers
36:23Scud missile mobiles
36:37Just like the Air Force
36:39from the United States
36:40The Navy wanted it too.
36:41your own autonomous UAV
36:43However
36:44to design an aircraft
36:45for takeoff and landing
36:47on an aircraft carrier
36:47It was an extraordinary challenge.
36:50In the summer of 2000
36:52the engineers
36:53from Northrop Grumman
36:54they started to develop
36:55the X-47 Pegasus
36:57The hardest part
36:58from the Pegasus program
36:59It definitely was.
37:00flight controls
37:01Decorate and set up
37:03on an aircraft carrier
37:03These are two of the problems.
37:05design
37:05more difficult
37:06of an aircraft
37:07and do that
37:08with a vehicle
37:08without a tail
37:09like Pegasus
37:10It was complicated.
37:10The problem has been solved.
37:12with the use
37:12of six surfaces
37:13innovative
37:14to make the aircraft
37:15up, down
37:16and turn
37:17This surface
37:19It spins and goes up.
37:20Elevon too
37:21up and down
37:22and it has another layer
37:23internal
37:23on the lower surface
37:25The first flight
37:27of Pegasus
37:27the demonstration
37:28It was too much.
37:29very successful
37:30It lasted about 12 minutes.
37:32There were no crew members.
37:33no loop
37:34But will Pegasus
37:36without human assistance
37:37would be able to land
37:38in tiny space
37:39between the cables
37:40From an aircraft carrier?
37:41The engineers
37:42they created a way
37:43brilliant to discover
37:45the answer
37:45We put
37:46this little ball
37:47with ink
37:48at the bottom of the hook
37:49so we could
37:50to have an indication
37:50clearer
37:51from the point of contact
37:52where we play
37:53on landing
37:54The United States Navy
37:56will use stealth UAVs
37:58to collect information
37:59about targets
38:00for artillery
38:01missiles
38:02and for the fighter jets
38:02The main concern
38:04has been
38:05information
38:05surveillance
38:06and recognition
38:07to provide
38:08information
38:08about the targets
38:09to the forces
38:10attack
38:10of the Navy
38:16But many UAVs
38:18of the future
38:18like the bomber
38:19unmanned
38:20X-45
38:21from the Boeing company
38:22they will carry
38:23heavy artillery
38:24Although they fly
38:25on missions
38:26pre-programmed
38:27armed UAVs
38:28they will still need
38:29human authorization
38:30to fire
38:32He needs to know.
38:33where are
38:34the allied forces
38:35on land
38:35where civilians
38:36they may be
38:37where there are effects
38:37side effects
38:38Reaching a church
38:39or a mosque
38:40It would be a tragedy.
38:41That's why
38:41there is an element
38:42which we always maintain
38:43A person
38:44in the command loop
38:44It is important
38:46You can have a gun.
38:47that goes to its own
38:48surveillance
38:48and that has the ability
38:49own to work
38:50the target
38:51And that gives it a level
38:52of domination
38:52that we are only
38:53starting to explore
38:59In the future
39:00not so far away
39:01there will be systems
39:02aerial warfare
39:03and aircraft
39:04even more radical
39:05like weapons
39:06electromagnetic
39:09aerial lasers
39:10powerful
39:11aircraft
39:12hypersonic
39:13that will be able to fly
39:14anywhere
39:15of the world
39:16in two hours
39:17or less
39:18But how long will it take?
39:19these secrets
39:20high technology
39:21Will they become reality?
39:33The enigmatic
39:34F-117
39:36Nighthawk
39:36flew in secret
39:37for ten years
39:38before its existence
39:40was revealed
39:41to the world
39:43Some of the projects
39:44military
39:45non-confidential
39:46from the United States
39:47appreciated by the Pentagon
39:48They seem more
39:49Science fiction
39:51more than reality
39:54The army
39:56from the United States
39:57is designing
39:57a weapons system
39:58whose objective
39:59will neutralize
40:00a campsite
40:01enemy
40:01or an installation
40:03without destroying it
40:03and without spreading
40:04chemical materials
40:05biological
40:06or nuclear
40:10Weapons by wrist
40:11electromagnetic
40:12or PEN weapons
40:13they will detonate
40:14a high concentration
40:15magnetic field
40:16in the direction
40:16of the target
40:17overloading
40:18and destroying
40:19all components
40:20electric
40:23The weapons
40:24wrist
40:25electromagnetic
40:25small
40:26they have skills
40:27amazing
40:27You can
40:28destroy completely
40:29an infrastructure
40:30electronics
40:30enemy
40:31with great precision
40:32You can
40:32fly over
40:33a small
40:33installation
40:34with two acres
40:35fire
40:35and suddenly
40:36none of the computers
40:37Theirs will work.
40:38Not even the weapons
40:39nor the components
40:40electronics
40:40will work
40:43The researchers
40:45They are also testing.
40:46a chemical laser
40:47air
40:47which is so immense
40:48that occupies
40:49the interior
40:49from an airplane
40:50Boeing 747
40:51commercial
40:55The entire aircraft
40:57it was transformed
40:57in a factory
40:58chemical energy
40:59to generate
41:00laser energy
41:01to the front
41:02where there is a system
41:03coordination
41:04laser targeting
41:05on target
41:05to destroy
41:06missiles
41:18The fields
41:19battle
41:20of the future
41:20will continue
41:21to be places
41:22dangerous
41:23But the designers
41:24military
41:25believe
41:25that the secret
41:26to maintain
41:26the advantage
41:27is to develop
41:28weapons systems
41:29of the future
41:29today
41:30The generation
41:31of the future
41:31air power
41:32it's already
41:33between us
41:35world
41:39and
41:50everybody
