Heritage Today - ISR and Innovation

Find the unfindable. Discover the undiscoverable. This is what we do. So that thousands of threats we hear about... never have to be the threats our country hears about.

Oh man, this is some crazy stuff! Love the U-2 footage used in this video, as well as the reveals of the RQ-180 White Bat and SR-72 "Son of Blackbird", although I know that the models shown in the video are probably not what the real things look like. There are a few actual White Bat images out there; one was spotted near Edwards AFB in California last year and the other was seen overflying the Philippines earlier this year.

Also, those diagrams in the background at 2:27 are of the X-37B

Super! The most technologically advanced army in the world!

The SR-72. Cool to see some new stuff about it, even if just a couple seconds of (CGI?) video. Yes, that's the Air Force logo on the wing. But, JUST behind where the 'cockpit' would go, you can make out the letters 'SR' then a blank space or something I can't make out, followed by '7' followed immediately by a number I can't make out. If you snapshot it and it in Adobe or even on an iPhone (I assume android, but haven't used Android in a long time) and mess with the black point, shade, contrast and brightness, you can make it out, clear as day! Not to mention it's VERY close to any artwork released officially of what the SR-72 will look like. It all lines up.

Y’all missed out on them having an X-37 on screen when he said recon faster than the speed of war. I know it’s just a video but they may be saying the x-37 is a recon platform

Mach 18. Are they insinuating the SR-72 can reach speeds of 13, 000 MPH?

[Yoj]

nuclear non superpowers are about to become irrelevant in terms of conventional intercontinental delivery of warheads. Glide vehicles from Guam would intercept a DPRK missile during BOOST phase given solid intelligence. A gruelingly scary 10 minute threshold.

@Maxwell Air Force Base

Did you guys run this by the base historian or AFHRA? at 00:51 your narrator says Liberator, but someone put in footage of B-26 Marauders.... might wanna fix that.

Sincerely,
GFAFB Historian

Hippity Hoppity. That Sr-72 Is now being espionaged by Chinese military.

[rowbags]

"We've seen the Liberator..."? - those were B-26 Marauders.

[bad-bunnyblogger]

The future is coming at Mach 18? What do you mean by this? Flirting us with the sr-72??

[sneakyjoe]

The days of balloons and bi-planes have been replaced by white bats.

[cochinos]

shhhh no need to tease...loose lips sink ships... I love the white bat tho...one got away over the Philippines...so they say.

[jaysonpida]

Ah, tactical ISR > RF-101s, RF-4s, RF-8s, A-5s, 'Tarps' pod...

[alexmorgan]

TR3B, China and Russia don't stand a chance.

[Dasycottus]

Personally I'm way more interested in the far more credible RQ180 that they mentioned by fucking name
