Jet Fighter Question - Zero G

[hawker111]

 

Hi to All,

What would be the average minimum airspeed needed for a jet fighter to obtain zero-G? For example, if the F-104 Starfighter was in a zoom climb, and its airspeed dropped to 70 KIAS, would the F-104 probably be able to get into zero-G at such a low airspeed?

Thanks,

You mean the point that a pilot no longer has enough control authority to push the nose down and obtain zero G? Going to be different for each aircraft - what is this in relation to?

Yes Migbuster, that is my question.

Thanks,
