This is actually incorrect the air contains the same amount of oxygen just at a lower pressure that the lungs can breathe

I was waiting for him to mention Mig25 reached 123, 520 ft on August 31, 1977.

Did you forget that jet engines need oxygen?

The lack of oxygen is an issue for the pilots starting around 14, 000 feet. So it’s not an new issue, and on board system work basically the same at the higher altitudes.

Which is why Starscream in TF 2007 is badass. He transformed into an F22 but in mid credit scene, he flew right into space 😂.

Pilots have o2 in a bottle. The engines and lift decide how high

On Dec. 6, 1959 an F4 Phantom during testing flew at 98, 557 ft.

F-15 "streak eagle" went up over 100, 000 feet in 3 min, 27.8 sec!

Asks us a question, then he never answers it for us.

BAE Lightening once reached an altitude of 88'000 feet, it had a climb rate 20'000 ft a minute. Bear in mind this plane first flew in 1957 just 12 years after the end of WW2. Incredible piece of British aeronautical engineering.

Foxhound entered the chat at 123, 500ft. Brah!

SR-71: “I don’t have such weaknesses.”

JET AIRCRAFT

The highest current world absolute general aviation altitude record for air breathing jet-propelled aircraft is 37, 650 metres (123, 520 ft) set by Aleksandr Vasilyevich Fedotov in a Mikoyan-Gurevich E-266M (MiG-25M) on August 31, 1977.

On December 6, 1959 US Navy Commander Lawrence E. Flint set a new world’s record when he zoom climbed his YF4H-1 Phantom II prototype to an altitude of 98, 561 feet or 30, 041 meters.

I took the F-15, C to 82, 000 ft, and the record for the plane is about 105, 000 feet. These are zoom climbs however, and do require partial or full pressure suits.

Also, the less oxygen at higher altitude can create a flameout in the engines.

[Matas]

F4 Phantom built in the late 50's made it to 98, 000.

[cfopharma]

One and only Reason: The Jet engine looses it's power due the lack of oxygen.

[grumpy]

You forgot about the air breathing engines.

[travelernextstopheaven]

The jets carry LOX - liquid Oxygen tanks for the pilots. If there is 1 pilot and 1 RIO they each get a LOX tank like on a EA-6B

300, 000 ft for X15A2 rocket fueled and launched from B52. Max speed Mach 6.7 still holds record for highest manned flight
