I served 21 years in the US Marine Corps as an infantry officer with 3 years in combat a very long time ago. I'm 77 now and still a Marine at heart. My dad was a B17 pilot in WW II and was shot down over Germany on July 26, 1943 and spent the rest of the war as a POW in Stalag Luft III (the location of the Great Escape). He stayed in the Air Force after WW II ad became a B-47 and then a B-52 pilot. In fact, he flew every multi-engine plane in the Air Force at the time. Unfortunately, it died of a heart attack while on active duty at age 51. One of my uncles was a Air Force fighter pilot who was a double ACE in the Korean War and flew over 90 missions over North Vietnam during the Vietnam War and retired has a Major General. Another uncle was a F-106 interceptor pilot during the Cold War and retired as a Lieutenant Coronel. Another uncle was a captain in Special Forces in Vietnam and was severely wounded. He retired as a Lieutenant colonel. My brother served over 2 years in Vietnam as a Marine infantry officer and was severely wounded. He spent a year in the hospital, but served over 30 years in the Marine Corps. My grandfather on my mother's side was an Army surgeon who was on General MacArthur's staff in the Philippines at the beginning of WW II and on General Eisenhower's staff in Europe. He retired has a Brigadier General in the Army's Medical Corps in the 1950's. I was in college from 1964 to 1968 as a history major. The military Draft was in place at the time and a history major was not eligible for a deferment, so I joined the Marine Corps to avoid the Draft. This was a special program that allowed me to finish collage and then be commissioned as a 2nd Lieutenant in the Marines. So I graduated and was commissioned and immediately was sent to The Basic School for newly commissioned Marine officers in early June. The course was 6 months and so just before Christmas 1968 I arrived and in Vietnam and was assigned as a platoon commander. Hard year. I lost a lot of Marines killed and wounded. It was mentally and physically exhausting. But I originally wanted to be a military pilot but my eyes were bad and I was lousy at math and so there was no way to pass all of the pre-flight school exams. However, I did eventually became a private pilot and I not only earned my commercial and instrument ratings, but I also earned my glider's license and I took basic, intermediate and advanced aerobatics. This was long after my dad had passed and so I always hoped that somewhere up in heaven he was proud that I did become the pilot I wanted to be. I also purchased tickets on a B-17 that took 30 minute flights for paying passengers. I just wanted to experience the sounds and feelings that my dad had experienced in WW II. I got goose bumps during those two flights. I can't possibly describe the sights, sounds, and overall experience of those two flights that gave me a hint of what my dad experienced in WW II. Few sons and daughters have the opportunities to have such experiences of their WW II fathers and mothers. God, I miss my mom and dad. They were the best parents any kid could have ever have hoped to have.

We need every one of these things we have left, and it’s not many-maybe half that operationally ready. The choice to cut the F-22’s contract early was the single worst defense decision the US has made since sending untested M-16s to Vietnam to replace the M-14. In the long run, it may even be worse. Despite what self-interested businesses and their social media marketing teams claim, the F-22 has no substitute now, or in the near future. It is the ONLY weapon capable of ensuring NATO air superiority. Against an adversary like China, or even Iran/Russia, F-18s, F-15s, F-16s cannot fill that role and even the F-35 are suboptimal at best and vulnerable at worst. And that’s a huge problem. The only thing that stands between us and China, is the F-22. Without it, our bases in the Pacific and in Alaska, and perhaps even our homeland, are in jeopardy. There is no special secret weapon keeping us safe. It’s our economic power and our air power, that’s it. And the F-22, is the separator when it comes to air power. You see, because the contract was cancelled, and because Congress blocked Lockheed Martin from selling the F-22 to foreign buyers even before that, it’s no longer a money maker. Therefore, LM-a self-interested business-has every incentive to lie, and tell everyone that actually, the F-35 is the best plane ever, and the US and every other country should only buy that and only that. But it’s not. It is an invaluable weapon for fleet defense, surveillance and attack, in a completely revised strategy of distributed naval power. You see, given China’s missile technology-of which they have us to thank for allowing them to steal it during the Obama administration as well as all of our most top-secret and sensitive defense technology in the DREN system-our aircraft carriers are no longer viable as centralized command, supply and deployment bases. So, we are now using many smaller ships, that only the f-35 can fly from, to prevent losing an arm of our navy if a missile hits a carrier. That said, that’s only one part of the war. The F-35 is great at what it’s good at but it is incapable of air superiority/denial. For that, you need more stealth, more survivability against IR weapons, more survivability against fighters and interceptors. The F-22 has all of that, the F-35 doesn’t. The F-35 is really only stealthy from front aspect. It is not at all stealthy from rear aspect. It has a massive IR signature. It’s slow, and has turn rates comparable to fully-loaded 4th gen fighters, at best. It’s designed to A.) hit you quickly, and quietly, before you can react, and then go home. It is not designed to make a second pass or tangle in a long-drawn out fight. It is not designed to patrol the skies with impunity. If it is in contested air space patrolling, you can exploit the F-35’s weaknesses easily. It has a small payload, and against a sophisticated, near-pear adversary, it will be limited to aim-120 radar-guided missiles. That’s because it can’t carry the aim-9x internally. It’s limited to just 4 amraams. Especially against stealthy aircraft, in all likelihood, those four missiles will translate to 1 kill. That’s not enough to deter an enemy that has far superior manufacturing capacity. Moreover, its lack of supercruise and lack of all-aspect stealth, means it can easily be put in a bad position and targeted if it is loitering/parolling in contested air space. Get behind it and lock on. The F-22 on the other hand, remains stealthy while carrying two of the best missiles in the world, the aim-9x, as well as 4 amraams. Even from rear-aspect, it is difficult or impossible to target and track with radar-guided weapons, and its minimized IR signature makes defeating IR weapons far more likely. It will outturn any plane and missiles will have a difficult time intercepting it given advanced warning. It is fuel-efficient and can fly as fast as the f-35’s top speed, sustained, without using its after burner. It can fly at the edge of the atmosphere, and the engine redundancy makes it far less risky in contested air space. Nothing can take it on head-to-head, period. And given how difficult it is to target, it can get in close, upping the chances of its superior payload getting kills. 4 AMRAAMs and 2 Aim-9X mean an F-22 will take down maybe 2-3X as many planes as an F-35-on its own. We need more F-22s, and even given the large startup costs, producing 200 more would be worth every penny. It complements the F-35 perfectly. We shouldn’t be wasting money on useless weapons and contracts for F-15EX, super hornets, Blackhawk helicopter replacements, attack helicopter replacements. Attack helicopters are largely obsolete in modern war with a near-peer-their inability to perform high-g turns, large RCS and low altitude makes them far too vulnerable to MANPADs and integrated air defense networks. There are more cost effective options already available-drones, cruise missiles, COIN aircraft, A-10, gunships, b-52, b-1 etc… Re-start f-22 production, transfer f-16s and f-15s to the national guard and allies, reduce the fleet by 50%, cancel unnecessary contracts from other departments, up Air Force funding, reduce army funding, and purchase 200 more f-22s. Had we not stopped producing them, we would’ve saved a trillion dollars, but leave it to neocons and democrats to screw us as usual.

Looks sort of weird how it can just "pancake" through a turn with such high alpha, but I guess that's what thrust vectoring is there for.

This is an amazing video. I’ve watched another few but your spot and angle perfectly captured the insane thrust and maneuverability of the Raptor. It’s absolutely insane to watch how it did the vertical climb only a few seconds after take off. I believe it is the only aircraft in the world that can pull it off like that. Among Chinese aviation enthusiasts there’s a popular saying goes, “If the thrust is strong enough, a brick can fly in the air”. Amazing how technology thirty years ago can almost defy the fundamental physics. Sheer admiration❤. Again, thanks for sharing this

Earth has a material science operational physics limiter. We are aware of what the maximum is. The whole 30 year old technology is a misnomer. The f22 raptor pushes the human body, earths material science, and operational physics to the theoretical limit of human potential. What you see here is about the best you will ever see unless we discover exotic materials.

Mind you, this is the pilot taking it easy, going low and slow so everyone can see. If he wanted to he could knock that entire crowd literally on their ass just from flying by with the burners on. This is the raptor being NICE.

I can only imagine the G-force that pilot must feel on all 4 of those vertical climbs. From near 0 degrees to almost 90 in less than 2 seconds. Easily pulling 5gs, if not more. I got mad chills at 2:07 the first time they did it. I remember doing this on BF3 and 4 on this aircraft and it felt almost unreal, and seeing it actually happen is INSANE. The guy had to have been gritting extra hard on those lifts to not pass out. Did they have a cockpit cam? A lot of these do, but I could understand if they don't because of military secrets and all.
