The afterburner plume on the F 35 is INSANE!

[@loganseales682]

I have always been really interested in red flag, it's an amazing training course ! and awesome vid !

[@waynester71]

Nice.. enjoyed the pilot feedback 👌🏼

[@russouk]

Im from UK,but the sights and sounds of this heavy metal hardware gives me goosebumps...good to see the RAF represented as ever and doing well,we have a good reutation at Red Flag,look forwards to seeing the F35 from our new carriers....cant wait...Bet our fly boys cant wait to get them either supersonic navy again....about bloody time too.

[@Tigershark_3082]

If there's one thing the UK needs, it's a supersonic carrier-based aircraft. You had us beat with your FGR.2s and FG.1s (they technically had a higher top speed than the US's Naval Phantoms), and even Harriers!

[@javiermac381]

WHAT A SHIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIF35IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIT AIRPLANE !!!

[@trenton.tchannel1810]

Javier Mac not really it just wasn’t executed completely from jump so it’s slowly getting the software it needs to be what we know it can be. Also I’m sure that plane can a lot more than what us a civilians will ever know

[@bygabyyt1423]

20:1 kill ratio at Red Flag

[@jackstheraptor2791]

landing raptors are the only survivors :))

[@user-hc8kt2nh2x]

My love baby...

[@KN-ko8ez]

Incredible shot at @10:52!!

[@AAa-cf1oe]

☺💚

[@ilhanonaran]

Don’t for get tango-1 :)

[@flyinbrianvids]

Wow look at the tire shaking on that raptor when it touches down at 3:10

[@strong6574]

Holy hell lol

[@flyinbrianvids]

Gar dude, I know what fly by wire is, I know the difference between a f22 and a f35. With that being said, in the video at 3 minutes and 10 seconds the F22 RAPTOR, touches down and the left main wheel starts to shake violently. come on man, get with the program!

[@huydo8719]

Monster LMA that's definitely the tire shaking. Same thing can be see on passenger jets

[@trespire]

Good catch ! That isn't a digital artifact. Looks quite serious but it might still be withing design specifications. If you want to see serious undercarriage problems, take a look at the pioneering TSR2 development program. The British had some big problems with the main gear before they engineered the problem.

[@trenton.tchannel1810]

I think it was from the hard landing honestly

[@DIAMONDBIRD4]

I could watch Nells egress/recoveries all day

[@jackstheraptor2791]

Everyone come back pissed off but the F-22 pilots.

[@martinrivera9186]

Where's the Migs

[@HBO1984.]

No mock engagements? If I want to see planes take off and land I will go to my local airport.

[@slappymcgillicuddy7532]

pretty sure they won't be getting pictures of them dogfighting at 35000 feet in the MOA

[@aleksa99se]

How many Mitsubishi zeroes they shoot down in this games? What was the kill ratio?

[@TheArabsolga]

Feels good... All the "Oh keep the F15, F16, F18 and just upgrade them!" legacy fighter fanboys and the Russian trolls saying the F35 is a piece of shit. Then at Red Flag, the F35 gets a 20:1 KDR. NEVER aborted a takeoff due to maintenance. And did most of the work when grouped with other fighters. And what do we hear afterward from the naysayers? Radio silence.

[@tommytanker3939]

Its an expensive piece of shit. Funny these F-35 fanboys never mention the cost.

[@batmandeltaforce]

It's cheaper than the Eurofighter straight up, and at 21/1 a hell of a lot cheaper than F-16, F-15 and anything else:) Meaning you'd have to have 21 F-18 to beat one F-35. Troll all you like, but you are delusional:)

[@trespire]

Lets hope the F35 lives up to it's full potential. Israeli Air Force have committed to the project so lets hope the airframe can deliver for us (a very big investment for a small country). As for maintenance problems & reliability, there are two factors at ply: 1) good design & 2) quality of maintenance workmanship. Only time will tell. A 20:1 kill rate does sound encouraging !

[@HmsSulaco]

Bla Bla Bla "Although we don’t know the ROE (Rules of Engagement) in place for the drills nor the exact role played by the F-22 Raptors that teamed up with the Lightning II throughout the exercise."

[@joseportillo1620]

Que puedo decir ver un vídeo así de lo que admiras que más se puede pedir gracias

[@trespire]

Is it just me or is there something different with the suspension stiffness on the F35 main gear. On takeoff the F35 seems to be rocking left to right quiet strong, may be it's just the geometry of the widely spaced main gear.

[@abeelvago]

15:01, ah yessss, the good stuff :)

[@lpblewis]

Something's wrong with the left wheel of the F-22 @ 3:10

[@FlightSimulatorXATC]

How do you get on the field for one of these kinds of things? I really wanna go to 18-1 if I can get free time.

[@huydo8719]

FlightSimulatorXATC there should be a media day for each RF

[@FlightSimulatorXATC]

i'm merely an enthusiast, is that enough?

[@bunningssnag6303]

think you have to be air force, marines or what not to get in. Or at least be involved with those

[@gauloiscalifornien]

Human kill ratio USA/Vietcong also 20:1...

[@Tinfoil_Hardhat]

gauloiscalifornien And we could've and would've won the war if we stayed in Vietnam. However media portrayed the war a loss.

[@ginoarauz6008]

My favorite jet fighter is 1: F22 Raptor, 2: F-16, 3: F-35 Lightning, 4: F15, 5: F/A 18 Super Hornet Por nada en el mundo cambio esa alineación.

[@dillydilly3680]

Anyone know how well the F22 preformed?

[@aleksa99se]

I'm not getting something. Those pilots introduce F-22 and F-35 like they never saw or heard of F-117 or B-2 planes before. They are also stealth and hard to find by SAM's but they still are shot down in real world. I bet that same results ware obtained by F-117 in their "Red flags" games. They are reselling same story over and over...

[@tylerbryanhead]

aleksa99se The F117 was not a fighter, despite its intentionally misleading designation.

[@epicmickey2351]

And the F-117 that was shot down was following the same path it did for weeks during its tour in Bosnia. The folks down below knew where the F-117 is gonna be, and once it opened its bomb bay doors, it increased the radar cross section, allowing the SAM to shoot it down. Plus, F-117 does not have a warning system for Missiles.

[@Ishaq_Vally]

aleksa99se Stealth has come a long way from F117 days. B2 has never ever been shot down. There is no wreckage. F-22 is the greatest air superiority fighter ever. F-35 is a multirole platform.

[@NombredeusuarioY]

9:59 bumpy runway and pilots chose NO AFB

[@CrimsonReapersDS]

A nice edit from the IMAX production can be watched here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/roe3e4x3ibKhebs

[@memomemo2359]

Tango-1 never dies .DD

[@stantobin435]

well how ten fuck am i gonna watch porn now?

[@jackfrost8398]

Well we've already paid for theese Lightning F352 We might as well get used to em and work the kinks out plus radar invisibility and 100 mile heads up on aircraft the ability to put more on an carrier due to vertical lift in a third of all made is a plus .Still I wanna see more Drone aircraft of higher longer flight bigger payload capability

[@superskullmaster]

Jack Frost why? We lost a stealth drone to Iran because we put to much trust in autonomous vehicles. I'm sure other enemy countries are itching to hack more of our drones to capture. Doesn't happen like that with manned aircraft.

[@Tinfoil_Hardhat]

superskullmaster We never lost a stealth drone

[@tetatoto23]

Puisque la France n'est plus invitée aux Red Flag, les USA pourraient inviter l'Egypte, le Qatar, l'Inde puisqu'ils ont des Rafales !

[@hakanbodin252]

WHY, would NOT the American Aouthorities, AND You Tube (for that matter) , Accept that the Gripen as a Jet-Fighter is one of the most capable Jet-Fighters in the World today with Gripen E, especially !? Even the Gripen C/D, at Red Flag, had a score like this " 5 -0, 5 -0 and 5 - 1" !!! WHY, isn´t that "Red-Flag-score" Officiial on You Tube "?!?

[@slappymcgillicuddy7532]

because nobody in the fighter community believes the Gripen is as hyped up as you fanboys make it.

[@yjohnny99]

This F-35 is ugly...! Marcel Dassault said un beautiful plane fly beautifully !! This F-35 must be a piece of shit !!!!

[@dankuettel5063]

The F-35 is about as pretty as lipstick on a pig

[@thetruthhurts4054]

dan kuettel would you really give a fuck what plane looks like when your 2 seconds away from it shoving a missile up your ass from 100 miles away that you did not know was there? I frankly would careless what that plane looked like even if it was fucking hot pink and neon green. Id still be just as dead. Stfu

[@pinco752]

Fortunately my country will not participate in this shit in the future.
