Fighter Aircraft

Eurofighter Typhoon

The F-15 Eagle is one of the worlds fastest operational fighter jet with a top speed of Mach 2.5.

However the Russian Mikoyan-Gurevich MiG-25 "Foxbat" interceptor is capable of Mach 3.2 if the pilot is willing to destroy his engines, and is normally restricted to Mach 2.8. Also it's successor the MiG-31 "Foxhound" is also capable of Mach 2.8.

Also the American Lockheed YF-12 interceptor, one of the predecessors of the SR-71 "Blackbird" was approved for acquisition by the USAF back in the 1960's, but due to government intervention the order for 100 planes was canceled. The YF-12 was reportedly capable of Mach 3.35.

A similar fate also occured to the Canadian Avro Arrow program which was scuttled in the late 1950's, the initial design brief was for a Mach 2 capable interceptor, years before any other similar aircraft existed, though there were other similar programs. One of the design studies suggested that with some modification to the design it would be Mach 3 capable.

A Supermarine Spitfire, a British fighter aircraft from World War II, typically accommodates one pilot. While the cockpit is designed for a single occupant, modifications or special versions might allow for a passenger seat, but such configurations are rare. Generally, for standard operations, only one person can fit in a Spitfire.

A jet engine works basically the same as any engine. It compresses air, then injects fuel and ignites it with the result that the fuel/air burns and expands which produces work.

Air is brought in the engine and turning blades compress the air and pushes it further back. When it gets to the combustion chamber, fuel is injected and the gas is ignited. The fuel/air burns and expands and flows faster out the back. As it does, it turns the turbine blades which are connected by a shaft to the front blades and keeps the engine turning.

Wingspan of the A-10 Thunderbolt is 57 ft 6 in.

Most Spitfires cold fly about 800 miles.

the Spitfire was last flown operationally in 1952.

General Dynamics originally built the F-16.

no

Yes, they would not be much use if not deadly.

They claim 1,500 mph, I would bet it's much faster.

The Me 262 was built by Messerschmitt AG in Augsburg, south Germany.

There are MANY different fighter planes so a definitive answer is impossible. Most modern fighters fly between 1,200 and 1,600 mph.

they are red,blue,dark green,light green,white,yellow and black for the frofelers

very fast

The A-10's max speed is 518 mph at 5,000 ft.

Only the first 77 Spitfires had a 2 blade wooden propeller. This was about 8.5 ft tip to tip. All later models had 3,4, 5 or 6 blade propellers of about 9 feet tip to tip.

I would guess about 250-270. I have photos of at least 100 in flying condition.

it depends what jet.

Yes, spitfire grubs, which are the larvae of the beetle species known as the "spitfire beetle" (family Elateridae), are primarily nocturnal. They tend to be more active during the night, feeding and moving around in search of food. Their nocturnal behavior helps them evade predators and reduces competition with diurnal species.

Messerschmitts fought Spitfires all through WW2.

" A Raisin In The Sun"

There are many different Messerschmitts, you would have to specify which.
