Somewhere in the world right now, an unmarked white 747 is either flying or sitting ready to take off within minutes. If a nuclear attack ever destroyed the U.S. government on the ground, this aircraft would become the government. They call it the Doomsday Plane. This is the story of the E-4B — the aircraft built to survive the end of the world, and the one morning in 2001 when it actually had to prove it could. In this video: — Why America built an aircraft to survive a nuclear attack the government itself couldn't — The electromagnetic pulse shielding and five-mile antenna hidden inside — What the E-4B actually did on September 11th, 2001 — Why only four were ever built — and why they're all still flying — What replaces the "Doomsday Plane" when it finally retires ───────────────────────────── Support Another World Sky: If you'd like to help keep these stories alive, the link is below. 👉https://www.paypal.com/donate/?hosted... 🛒 SUPPORT THE CHANNEL (Amazon Affiliate Links): As an Amazon Associate I earn from qualifying purchases.
