Ah, the Vulcan, possibly the coolest looking bomber ever. So beautiful and elegant looking. I am a big fan of Mark Felton's channel too, always interesting stuff if you are at all aviation inclined. Back in the 1980's I worked at a big Western US university and we had internet access as employees. But of course, that meant things like FTP and Usenet and email, at least for the likes of us non technical types. I remember seeing the Web for the first time in the mid 90's and being absolutely blown away. Ah, the good old days.
Just gotta go with classic South Park: Blame Canada; they're not a real country anyway.
Take the win lol
Before my time for this exercise, we did have Vulcan aircraft come into Offutt AFB every couple of years, so I have seen the aircraft. We do accomplish nuclear attack and response exercises; used to be 3 times a year.
Fifty years ago was not the 1980s. Mark Felton said at the start that this happened in the 1960s and was not published at all so none of us could have known about back then. We had the fledgling beginnings of the internet in the 1980s with government sponsored ARPANET and the National Science Foundation (NSF) network, but commercial Internet service providers (ISPs) emerged in 1989 in the United States and Australia.
Again this was before mass communications could have made us aware of this in the 1960s..
To be fair the first atomic bombs were deployed by the US on Japan.
My grandparents were infants during that time and even so it's awful.
I would love for you to react to more of marks stuff
It's called click bait
They did say 99% right Well you guys were the 1% that got through Bravo and thanks for testing
You got to remember it wasn't only the US that had the air defense system Britain had the same air. Defense system, that's why was it joining operation?
I was old enough in the 80s that I was working in NYC. Never heard of this.
It 5:21 looks like we were all kept in the dark about this one…
This whole video is like the UK military being proud of itself because it beat the American military at Halo twice, instead of a real battle 😂
I wonder why they’re doing still do this every once in a while, seems like a good way to expose weaknesses. And you think Europe would want us to try that on them just in case to see how their defenses are.
I was alive in that time although I was only 3 years old then living on a Marine base in Hawaii then. So if I ever heard of this I do not remember it taken place.
I am 70 & i remember it well because back then we were having a lot of Nuke BS Scares ,The Media buried it !! We only knew a little , not this Whole story, The way the Media said about it made it sound like it was no big deal
I am old enough to remember the Cuban missile crisis in 1962 and that was very serious and in the news. This info about the jets was not to my knowledge. If it was my parents would have been talking about it and I think I would have remembered although I was quite young.
Hi Archie! Everybody, in their own comment or liking mine, say hi so he has thousands (millions) of comments before his first birthday!
Interesting 🤙
As many are saying I'm 58 and I've never heard of this.
I wonder how many heads rolled over this
As we saw on 911, the US still did not have fighters ready to stop an attack like this, even when they could track them. The defense is really the deterrent, not the ability to shoot down all the bombers or missiles. Hell, as we saw recently, you could send a nuke in by balloon! The UK, Russia, or China could most certainly hit the US but the response from the US would hurt a little. This works both ways.
I was born in 1953. I never knew about this. If it was mid-60's there were other things I thought about. Late 60's – Vietnam, JFK then Martin Luther King & Bobby Kennedy all assassinated. Riots in colleges over the war and the draft. The moon landing just made it in the late 60's like President Kennedy had spoke of. (in that decade)
And I think I was in love with the Beatles, Herman Hermits, Chad & Jeremy, Peter & Gordon around 65-66.(Young teen) Later I was into more news and seriousness. We sure could use someone like a Walter Cronkite now.
Later… I should wait till the end before I post. Ok I was 7 in 1960. Not paying attention to much then. Cable TV came in mid-70's for my family. Color TV, maybe… 71-72. Mostly, I remember going out in the rain to turn the roof antenna towards Philadelphia. (we didn't get any other channels then)
I was only six and don't remember. About the first thing I remember on the news was Kennedy's assassination.
Everbody had to take Iodine pills, during all the nuke testsin Nevada, and stay inside for a few weeks, I was 5 or 6 at that time. Guese that's why later in life I had cancer.
In the past 60 yrs. I guarantee we've fixed it.
