A fighter jet can be faster than the speed of sound.
Any modern jet fighter can go past the speed of sound.
It will fly approximately twice the speed of sound.
Yes, a jet fighter can fire its cannons while flying faster than the speed of sound. The bullets fired from the cannons can also travel faster than the speed of sound, effectively hitting the target even when the jet is flying at supersonic speeds.
Fighter jet with ease. Nearly all fighters are able to fly at mach speeds (faster than the speed of sound) and if a jumbo tried that it would break up. jumbo jets usually cruise at around mach 0.85 (567 mph, 913 km/h, 493 knots) which is well under the speed of sound (around 1000 km/h)
While the question doesn't explicity state which stealth fighter, it's reasonable to assume that all modern day fighter jets have Mach capabilities. This means they are faster than the speed of sound.
It is not true that the speed of sound cannot be broken. In fact almost all fighter jet planes fly faster than the speed of sound.Its the speed of LIGHT that cannot be broken.
Jet planes often fly faster than sound.
Depends what type of fighter jet it is
Only jet fighter planes break sound barrier now.
no, not necessarily. the reason that the sound appears to be coming from way behind the jet is because light travels faster than sound. think of a firework show, the sound always comes after the flash depending on how far away you are. since the jet is far away, by the time the sound reaches you, the jet is already way out ahead of the sound. this might help. ---jet--> ) ) ) <---sound ) ) ) ) 0 \|/ | <----you --------------------------/ \--------------------------------------------- /
supersonic
They have incredibly powerful engines. Most fighter jets are capable of flying faster than the speed of sound. An airplane traveling faster than the speed of sound will be seen before it is heard.
