Feel the jolt as you accelerate from zero to 150 miles an hour in less than a second, and launch from the deck of an aircraft carrier. The tree tops will whiz by your head as you fly no more than 20 feet off the ground in an Apache helicopter and search for another tank to destroy. Scan the radar-scopes of the Air Force’s newest fighter, the F-22 Raptor – the most sophisticated jet fighter to date – and launch guided missiles beyond the range of your eyesight and into unsuspecting opponents.
Far from the sketches of Leonardo da Vinci and beyond the dreams of the Wright brothers, today’s Ultimate Aircraft have pushed past man’s early conceptions of his ability and into the outer realm of his imagination. This five-part series puts you in the cockpit as these amazing flying machines strut their stuff. From high-G turns to low-altitude passes, you will view never-before-seen footage of the latest in military aircraft, and hear first-hand accounts of what these Ultimate Aircraft really can do, from the pilots who fly them.
SEA WINGS
From the sea they strike – the Navy’s SEA WINGS. Launching from America’s grandiose carriers at a blistering pace are today’s hottest fighters: the F-14 Tomcat; the F/A-18 Hornet and the EA-6B Prowler among others. These modern marvels are the gatekeepers of America’s defense. Sea Wings will take you aboard the carrier during a tense international conflict in Iraq. You will get into the mind of today’s pilots as they walk on the razor’s edge of war and peace. There is no room for mistakes here. Every second and every inch may mean all the difference between life and death.
It is night, the wind is blowing in excess of 100 miles-per-hour during a full monsoon. You are low on fuel, and you are responsible for landing a 20-ton machine onto a pitching carrier deck by clipping a taut cable with the tail-hook of your F-14. Set out to sea with the F/A-18 Hornet, the EA-6B Prowler, and of course, the F-14 Tomcat, ...
