    Nice imagery of a BUFF taking off, a LGM-25 LCC, a KC-135A refueling a F-105D…and the Offutt AFB command post for SAC.

    Thanks for posting this. Very much enjoyed watching. My father was in SAC his whole USAF career. Ground crew on B58s, and finally missiles. These guys were amazing heroes to me as a child. SAC is no more, but the professionalism of our airmen - and women - in the USAF today hasn't changed imho. Gen. LeMay and his people knew what the country and the USAF needed, and they knew how to get it.

    The Airborne Command Post was a dedicated EC-135 with a specially-modified inflight refueling system and enhanced communications systems. The LOOKING GLASS planes were backed up by EC-135L aircraft with datalink systems.

      The B-52 is a great plane.
      But I think the British Avro Vulcan, or the Handley Page Victor were sexier.
      Both weighed in at about 100tons, they could both go from cold to airborne in 2 minutes, this was call QRA, quick reaction alert, and if you had the balls, both could do a barrel roll, the Vulcan could even do a loop.
      🇬🇧🤎🇺🇸B-52.

    As a BUFF Nav, this video tells about some the workload on the ground, planning, and the workload, responsibles in the air. Technically, the Nav is running the show with the greatest workload of any other crewdog.

    I find the concept of “preparing” for a nuclear war or retaliation otherwise known as ‘mutually assured destruction’ [ M.A.D. ] an extremely eerie concept especially when you factor in that only reason we haven’t annihilated ourselves already is because benevolent extraterrestrials have stepped in to neutralize several missiles. Our nuclear folly isn’t only destructive to our immediate planet but to the entire space-time quantum fabric continuum that also disrupts star systems many millions of light years away from us. We live in a quantum universe that transcends the relativity of more 3D Newtonian physics. 5D quantum reality functions nondualistically based on everything in the universe being interconnected as taught in Buddhism. Hopefully we can outgrow our childish ways before it is too late. Even if benevolent extraterrestrials were forced to intervene for their own preservation, it would still have negative karmic consequences for humanity’s spiritual evolution under the Law of One. 🌀🪬🌀

      This was made for Congress. When it was time for budget reconciliation these would be shown to the various budgetary committees who could visually see what the money is being spent on. These would be highly classified at the time.

    The US strategic nuclear strategy hasn't changed much in 60 years.
    It still uses the same weapons varieties upgraded.
    The modern eastern missile defence and sonar net is all there is to defend US.
    Our defence and attack is antiquated at best.
    We are 30 years behind Russian aerospace friends.
    The 1980's-1990's hegemony is over.

      S.A.C. was a totally different animal, we had armed B-52's in the air 24 hours a day,7 days a week circling the U.S.S.R. . 85% of strategic bombers armed that were on 10 MIN ground alert. Which means those on ground alert could be in the air in 10 minutes, my grandpa and my dad were 52 pilots. If the balloon goes up, just don't worry,walk toward a major city or near a major military installation ❤😂. Gotta love M.A.D.

All of the f****** lettering on the Air Force planes and the naval planes are identical and have been the same since the middle of the 50s😅😅😅😊😊 go back and look at all these older videos and then go back and look at all the new updated version you would think they would figure out a way to change their font on the text on all their names LOL

Especially with the antennas on the roof and everything else .. see my uncle has been really sick for a long time so we went ahead and put copper panels on the roof and used ancient tartarian technology and my uncle is completely now cancer-free and has been for almost seven and a half months without going to a doctor or taking a single medicine. The only thing he's been doing is consuming plants and mushrooms off the property and he's been eating pretty much healthy food all along the very first time the other day he went to Arby's and got sick as a dog after eating the food there... the chemicals that are in the food are being activated by the Chemtrails in the sky making people sick thinking they're getting a virus it's not what's going on it's plant-based if you know you know if you don't then you got to get educated real quick Bubba. Look up the event 201 John Hopkins list. Each one of those is a Greek variance an ancient god or goddess which is an ancient evil deity or fallen angel that were supposed to watch over us that's what their named after the accident they're talking about is the ex variant that is actually the ex eclipse coming up where they dumped all these chemicals on this and they're going to flip the switch on 5G and have everybody freaking out. Plus if you look at it 2017 the One path went one way the moon's going the opposite direction now all of a sudden they're showing you that you're being played with. The moon only rotates in One Direction around the earth not two different directions. Don't take my word for it go look at the map.
