Stealth aircraft, First Time Fighter, Fighter aircraft

Stealth aircraft

Stealth aircraft (in English: stealth aircraft), or known as a very quiet plane is a plane designed to absorb and deflect radar uses stealth technology, making it more difficult to detect. In general, the goal is to launch an attack while he was still outside enemy detection. F-117 Nighthawk is one type of stealth aircraft which used the United States Air Force in the Gulf War. Stealth aircraft have the ability to avoid detection, both visually detection, audio, heat sensors, as well as radio waves (radar). Visually, the plane is more difficult to see if having the same color with the background color (camouflage). In audio, of course, trying to make the plane more calmly. In the heat sensors, aircraft are usually detected from the heat arising from the body or from the surrounding air temperature. The hottest part of the plane is usually the channel air exhaust or engine exhaust and the leading edge (the first part of the aircraft through the air). The heat from the exhaust can be reduced by mixing with the engine bursts of cold air from outside the plane before it exhaled out of the plane and extend the exhaust pipe (such as A-4 Skyhawk exhaust Indonesia which has a longer than the standard version). Exhaust part is usually pursued by anti-aircraft missiles with infrared sensors. However, modern heat-seeking missiles now also have the ability to detect and catch the heat generated by friction with the surface of the fuselage air.

First Time Fighter

Indulgence bring the old planes do not just mechanics Indonesia to use the pilots who likes adventure. In many countries that once had a fleet of air, especially civil war in World War II, groups of people that are always there.

In America there is even a fan club of old planes often fly together in various formations, merely fulfilling their desire to fly. Some use the two fixed-wing aircraft (Biplane), some use a victorious fighter in his time, made in Germany as Spitfire, Mustang (P-51D) which at the time of the independence war called The Red Kalanchoe, or Harvard that hard turn when on land.
Differences between the old era fighter with very different now, especially on the speed and equipment such as the active ratio, missil, engine. bomber B-25 Mitchell with a fin and rudder in two, or Convair seaplane Catalina PBY-5 was first made in 1935. Not least favorite is the Beech 18 or the military version called the C-45 made in 1937 to 1972. One version is still used by the Police Air Police. Old planes that still survive are mostly remnants of World War II, especially the mass produced. For example bomber B-25 Mitchell who had a military version of the windows in the nose and tail to where the shooter. In the civilian version of the windows were closed and instead there are several windows in the middle for the passengers. B-25 production to 10,000 pieces, while the T-6 Texan Harvard has produced up to 15,000 more fruit. Even the DC-3 Dakota produced more than 38,000 men over a period of less than eleven years, a number of production aircraft have been unsurpassed to this day.

Fighter aircraft

Fighter aircraft are military aircraft designed to attack other planes in the air. In contrast to the bombers, which is designed to attack targets on the surface. Fighter aircraft are relatively smaller, faster, and agile. Fighter aircraft originally developed in World War I, to face the bomber planes and hot-air balloon that began commonly used for ground attack and reconnaissance. The first fighter aircraft which was a double-wing wooden fed light machine gun. In World War II, more fighter planes made of metal, single wing, and use machine guns that are embedded in the wings. After World War II, began to replace the turbojet engine piston engines, and missiles began to be used to replace the machine gun as the main weapon.
