The speed of Air Force planes varies depending on the type of aircraft. However, some of the fastest Air Force planes like the F-22 Raptor and F-15 Eagle can achieve speeds of over 1,500 mph (2,414 km/h) or more. The SR-71 Blackbird, a retired reconnaissance aircraft, holds the record for the fastest speed at over 2,200 mph (3,540 km/h).

Why are planes fast?
There are 2 main reasons why planes are fast. First they have extremely powerful engines. Commercial airliners have engines that produce 70,000-90,000 lbs of thrust. Secondly, airplanes are very aerodynamic ( a measurement of how much force the air puts on an object). The more streamlined a plane is, the less HP is required to go the same speed. To look at it a different way, a more streamlined airplane can go faster with the same power.
Can a maglev train go as fast as a plane?
Maglev trains can achieve speeds comparable to or even greater than planes, with some traveling at over 300 mph. However, maglevs are limited by the infrastructure they run on, while planes have the advantage of flying directly in a straight line. This means that, in practice, planes may cover longer distances faster than maglev trains.
An extremely fast airplane can cause an explosive sound called a?
sonic boom as the planes speed exceeds the sound barrier.
Why can a maglev train not go as fast as a plane?
Maglev trains have speed limitations due to air resistance, power consumption, and safety concerns at high speeds. Planes have higher top speeds because they operate in thin air at high altitudes, allowing them to overcome air resistance more efficiently. Additionally, planes are not constrained by friction with tracks like maglev trains are.
Speed is the ability to?
Speed is the ability to move quickly from one point to another. It is a measure of how fast an object is moving.
Who is the chiarman of the board of the air force?
the airforce does not have boards, they have planes and the chairman would be the secretary of the airforce
How fast do air planes go?
depends on the plane.
Are there paratroopers in the airforce?
yes, combat controllers jump from planes into battles.
Why do we have planes?
because planes are fast and they can go to place that boats, cars, ect. can not. and for quicker transportation
How fast did planes go in 1940?
over 14 mph
Do planes go fast?
no not at all they are very slow, slower than snails
How fast to planes go?
usually it depends on where you are going if you are going to France from England the aircraft should travel approximately at 500/550 mph. if you are on a longer flight from England to Australia usually 600 mph. An interesting addition to this question is how slow can a plane go? RAAF pilots at their airforce base in South Australia can land planes while flying backwards. Into a strong headwind the plane can be kept airborn and can be landed while moving backwards.
How fast did planes go during world war 1?
1 metre per hour
How fast can airpanes go?
Some rocket planes can go as fast as six times the speed of sound. Most military fighter planes do not go faster than twice the speed of sound, and the typical civilian passenger/transport plane goes slower than the sound barrier.
What were women called who flew planes across the ocean during the World War 2?
Women Airforce Service Pilots
How are planes useful?
planes are used for cargo shipping, passenger shipping, or just sight seeing.
Are paper planes fast?
yes
