Ever wonder how General Atomics’ MQ-1 Predator compares to the Spirit of St. Louis? If so, this aircraft speed comparison video made in Unreal Engine 5.2 will show just how fast these classic airplanes are when compared to modern jetliners as well as other aircraft. The former is a remotely piloted aircraft that was used for offensive operations by the USAF and the CIA in Afghanistan and the Pakistani tribal areas from 2001 until the introduction of the MQ-9 Reaper.
There is also an armed version of the MQ-1, designated as the MQ-1A, equipped with Hellfire missiles to hunt for moving targets at greater altitudes. As for the Spirit of St. Louis, this single-engine, single-seat, high-wing monopolane was first successfully flown by Charles Lindbergh on on May 20-21, 1927. That trip marked the first solo nonstop transatlantic flight from Long Island, New York to Paris France, in which Lindbergh won the $25,000 Orteig Prize.
