VIDEO: Amazing Things Happen When You Strap A $70,000 Camera To A Fighter Jet

If you haven’t jerked it to some good, old-fashioned military footage lately, boy do I have the video for you! The below video contains absurdly high-def footage of, and shot from, a Gripen fighter jet.

Now that the technology exists to take such high-quality fighter jet footage, there has never been a better time to finally start shooting that Top Gun sequel. We’re a month and a day away from the 30th anniversary of the original film’s release, which would be the perfect day on which to release the trailer.

Start shooting. Make it happen.

    I refuse to be impressed with this technology until I can see the look on those Isis goat fuckers’ faces as we fly over and blow them up.

    My patriotic boner wasn’t in full effect since the jet wasn’t American.

    I was expecting some acrobatic spinny twisty shit. Cool scenery, though…

    Last month I signed a contract with the Marines which fulfilled my childhood dreams of becoming a fighter pilot after I graduate college. Honestly, when I found out I was selected for a pilot slot, I cried because I was so happy; all my hard work had finally paid off. Go Navy Beat Army

      Congratulations! You have my respect. Being selected to be a pilot honestly must be hard as hell.
