So what’s the reason for this? Fighter pilots in flight sudden fainting What explanation could there be?

Bride, Let’s explain why.

Of course it is very frightening that something like this happens.

Because the chance of a disaster increases exponentially. Fighter pilots, their bodies subject to high G-force values and this can lead to dangerous effects on their bodies. Extreme examples of the consequences include pilots fainting during flight.

This is called G-LOC or loss of consciousness due to gravity gets the name. G-force is the equivalent of gravity or a measure of acceleration or the influence of Earth’s gravity.

For example, if you suddenly accelerate while driving, you suddenly slide in the seat. you are pushed back. On the other hand, heavy braking pushes you forward towards the handlebars. This is the G-force in action.

Furthermore, G-forces are not limited to just the forward and backward directions. The object can accelerate in any direction.

Fighter pilots accelerate naturally while in the air and experience 3 different G-forces. G-forces acting on pilots; linear, radial and angular It is classified as.

Linear G-forces correspond to changes in speed in a straight line, while radial G-forces correspond to of changes in direction It is caused by. An example of radial G forces is sharp dives and turns.

Angular G-forces combination of both direction and speed changes It is experienced because of. On the other hand, the effect of the G-force is most felt in the moving parts of the body. Even when pilots are strapped into their seats, their organs and bodily fluids can still slosh inside.

As a result, the effect of G-forces is especially noticeable on these organs and substances. This has a negative impact on the body. For this reason pilots reduced vision, fainting, increased heart rate and blood pressure they live.
