1 ft/s = 0.59248380129641 kt

To convert 2699 feet per second into knots we have to multiply 2699 by the conversion factor in order to get the velocity amount from feet per second to knots. We can also form a simple proportion to calculate the result:

1 ft/s → 0.59248380129641 kt

2699 ft/s → V_(kt)

Solve the above proportion to obtain the velocity V in knots:

V_(kt) = 2699 ft/s × 0.59248380129641 kt

V_(kt) = 1599.113779699 kt

The final result is:

2699 ft/s → 1599.113779699 kt

We conclude that 2699 feet per second is equivalent to 1599.113779699 knots:
