Talk Techy: How Fighter Jet Pilots Use Trigonometry to Complete a Mission

It might be hard to imagine using trigonometry in the real world, but some of our Lockheed Martin engineers use it every day! See how our IRST program uses this subject to help keep fighter pilots safe on missions.

This is awesome, math is important and can be extremely helpful!

Very impressed with the LM social media team and the host. Important subjects! Would love to see more.

Do you use trigonometry to vaporize mud hut villages using UCAVs?

Cheers to the Lockheed social media team. You guys make some great content!

Amazing. They never talk about this in the Ace Combat series.

pilots used bombing tables back in the day before ccip or ccrp was a thing

let's just hope the target won't move so we can finish our calculations.

Transition sounds are a bit distractive, could you turn them down a bit?

looks like you gave them time to think - should of had distance first try - world is round only so much distance - isn't like your laser 7d printing meteors into a space station - with hologram lasers on snake eating it tail spaceship - isn't space welding the way planets are made - what the meteor had a problem - to much reflective criticism

So ti be a pilot we gotta study a ton of math.
Thats interesting…
