Thanks for posting that Parabellum. It must've been really loud in person for the people filming the scramble, but the filming style has given me a headache, all that jumping from one thing to another

very cool, but one would appreciate if it was filmed with a tripod. Thanks for sharing.

Very cool video, forget the knockers, maybe they would like it more if you commisioned a full film crew with a Hollywood size budget.

Would love to watch in the company of an eco warrior, might even dial 999 for them.

They did not appear to have any regard for wake separation??

If you had a couple 50 megaton ICBMs about 10 minutes out, you'd hurry too.

This does not impress me

MICs - Minimal Interval Circuits with 15 B-52's.

Now there's a video I would watch

They have serious regard for the correct spacing on takeoff. The proper interval has been studied and known for decades. I would expect #2 and #3 to take some serious grief on debrief for going slower than the minimum interval. I didn't time them, but I can assure you that someone in their chain of command did.
