if muscles are very important to stand the g forces
how come there are women fighter pilots?
not /r9k/ tier question
im just geniuinly interested
>>29234808
their hearts are closer to their brains making them less susceptible to blacking out
>>29234813
If this is correct that's pretty cool.
>>29234808
Net amount of muscle isn't as important as the ratio of strength to weight.
The weight of the pilot's body parts is what determines how much force is needed to counteract G forces.
Not like infantry where a 140 pound woman has to hump largely the same 100 pound load as a 200 pound man, and maybe carry the bigger man in an emergency.
>>29234808
Because on average, they have decent g-force tolerances which 'might' be related to height/body mass, but I'm not entirely convinced that's it.
To some extent women also have slightly different stress responses as well that probably help with operating machines.
There's been women fighter pilots since WW2, so its not exactly a new thing.
>>29234818
of course its not correct, what he said is just plain fucking retarded

it literally says that because women have smaller body mass and because they are smaller they are less likely to black out, not because their hearts are closer to their brain.
A man and a woman at the same height and the same body mass have the same distance from their hearts to the brain.
>>29234844
yes but women are shorter on average cocksucker
>>29234848
>the shorter the human body the shorter the path from heart to the brain is
well nice fucking job einstein, might as well publish it on pubmed and get your phd, u cockmongling cunt
>>29234844
"Because women have a smaller body mass the shorter distance between their heart and brain makes it easier for them to counteract the G-forces."
learn to read faggot
>>29234838
Rekt
>>29234859
You obviously don't know what body mass means, do you?
>>29234867
You obviously dont know what 'the shorter distance between their heart and brain' means. I mean there it is in plain english, backing up my claim...
>>29234821
This. As long as she is /fit/ and can constrict her muscles enough to fight g forces, she's no different. This may not be true, but fwiw I read that women have faster motor reflexes (Starship Troopers so idfk).

>American education
He said for the same height and body mass, retard
>>29234908
at the beginning of the thread it was 'plain fucking retarded' and now its not but only conditional on having the same body mass...
...and you're questioning my education
>>29234938
...learn...

>>29234953
this has to be bait. it says 'shorter distance to the heart' right in the link... you can argue semantic bullshit all you want but im still right
>>29234971
Shorter distance on average because women are smaller on average.
For a man and woman of the same size, the distance is the same.
Meaning the distance is identical between sexes, height/mass is the determining factor.
>>29234975
Yes if you ignore the obvious fact that the vast majority of women are smaller than men then you are right and im totally retarded and the claim i made and cited here verbatim is wrong and has no basis in reality.
feel better nao pookie?
>how come there are women fighter pilots?
Because fighter jet pilot is the one field in which manlets are king, and it's easy to find women at manlet size or smaller.
>>29235038
I'm believe women can make good snipers too
>in b4 muh Sniper Wolf

>how come there are women fighter pilots?
Look at the fraction of fighter pilots that are women compared to the fraction of military pilots that are women.
That said, you only need enough muscle to withstand the G forces of your own body. If you're light, you need less muscle.

you interested in buying some top tier property spanning the san francisco bay? This is a once in a lifetime opportunity to make some serious revenue with very little investment....

Don't forget tankers and submariners
>in b4 manlet detected
>>29235157
Well, there's one tanker job where decent height people have an advantage, but that job is going the way of the dodo.
>>29234808
abs and leg muscles are important to withstanding g-s.
so do your squats, eat your oats, do some death lifts too.
>>29234808
Hope they never need to eject.
>>29235250
also based on what the aerospace physiologist at Brooks City Base said when i went through the centrifuge, the shorter distance between heart and brain is why F-16 drivers have a slight G advantage too. so yeah, i'd believe it.
short, stocky, and elevated blood pressure is what you want. good endurance in case you're in a situation where you're under 4 g's or so for an extended period of time like a 2 circle fight.
>>29235253
Why?
>>29235157
>Tankers
Made with 6ft 2 in mind. Tankers only have the advantage in that they have more space because they are sub human.
>submariners
Not 1940 anymore, Fritz. Subs are perfectly comfortable these days. But like all vehicle posts in military, you will get a lean in your neck, no matter your height.
>>29234993
Not the guy you were arguing with, but holy fuck man, you are retarded. A small man would have the same advantage. At the same body mass and height it makes no difference. Their hearts and brains would have the same distance between them.
