Fighter Aircraft

The F4U was a fighter, like most fighters, it carried only the pilot.

By their profile shapes.

The word MIG stands for Mikoyan Gurivech, an aerospace and defense aircraft company and was founded by Artem Mikoyanand Mikhail Gurevich, two Russians, as "Mikoyan and Gurevich." And, the company's headquarters are in Moscow, Russia's capital. so yes the MIG-29 is definitely a Russian airplane.

The Battle of Britain was undoubtedly the most famous action that Spitfires took part in.

Because they are designed to be fast and have large, powerful engines.

Black Hawks use jet fuel.

You can use:

JP-8 (the current standard issue fuel)

Jet-A

Jet-A1

JP-4

Jet-B

JP-5

There are three other jet fuels--JP-6, JP-7 and JPTS--you can't run in it, but they're very rare: JP-6 and JP-7 go in planes the Air Force doesn't have anymore, and JPTS only goes in the U-2.

You can also run diesel in it, but diesel could be contaminated so they really don't recommend it.

JP-8 was designed to be a universal fuel. It works in both turbine engines and in diesels. The government has transitioned to diesel engines everywhere they possibly could, and this fuel works in all of them.

If you have absolutely no other option you can put gasoline in it but that cooks the engine in just a couple hours so they do not do it except under an emergency that hasn't happened yet.

It depended on the exact radio they had fitted. Most Spitfires had an aerial right behind the cockpit, about 2 ft tall, with a wire running to the fin. Some later models had a smaller 'whip' aerial.

The makers give 1,500 mph. -I would not be surprised if it's much faster.

If you are asking about the famous German fighter aircraft designer,- that was 'Willy' -or Wilhelm Meserschmitt, and he lived from June 26, 1898 to September 15, 1978.

Many airforces and navies fly jet fighters.

The Spitfire prototype was made in early 1936.

Most models of it flew about 3 hours at cruise, but less if involved in a dogfight.

A sharp nose is most advantageous to travel faster in air due to its aerodynamic shape. The nose presents the minimum resistance to air friction (friction causes both drag and extreme heating). The rounded shape of a space shuttle's nose is purposely designed to provide both resistance and lift as it reenters the atmosphere. Aircraft without sharply pointed noses would have great difficulty accelerating to the speed of sound and beyond.

The max speed of a p-51 mustang is 437 mph.

Typically 2, one on each wingtip launch rail. However underwing missile launch rail pods can be added for special missions, making the total number much larger.

The basic missile load on the F/A-18 is 4, two heat seeking sidewinders on the wingtip launch rails and two radar guided sparrows on fuselage launch rails.

Answer:

Very few fighters are limited to two missiles these days (although way back in the 1950s two was a common maximum load).

It depends on the particular aircraft, examples:

F-4 Phantom usual load - 4 radar guided Sparrow + 4 heat-seeking Sidewinder

Su 27 - up to 12 in a mix of radar-guided and heat-seeking (and the option of self-guiding).

Mobile acft arrecting system

The length of the F-18 Super Hornet is 60 feet.

If you are talking about the F-16 Fighting Falcon, its top speed is 1,350 mph (2,175 km/h).

The F-14A Tomcat has a max speed of Mach 2.34 but can fly faster

The FA-18E/F (Super Hornet) series has taken over the roles of the F-14D on U.S. Navy aircraft carriers.

Mirage, Rafale, Mystère, Super Mystère, Ouragan...

2,167 mph

The F-86 Sabre was arguable the most advanced US fighter jet in 1950. It remained so throughout the Korean War.
