[@cadetsparklez3300]

its more focused on that with the huge low pressure zone over the wings, the funny dynamic leading eadge of the wing, and 3d vectoring. why they would focus on that im not sure. maybe they only intend to use it on defence against less advanced adversaries?

[@BwHorH]

​@@cadetsparklez3300you mean supmaneurv? It's only for easy control, less sensitivity to pilot mistakes. It's meant that it's always ~1/3 of wing from both sides evades one way or another destroying from far distance, and there will be dogfight for some. Those some should win somehow, that's why for all this stuff with maneuverability. moreover, some strange misconception is very common about the fact that the aerobatic maneuvers demonstrated will be used in combat, according to the pilots, it is extremely rare. All these acrobatics are showing only to display that the machine is easily controllable at any speeds and angles of attack.

[@bluecrayon007]

the F-22 shows about 1/100th of what is can actually do. Both my parents are engineers on the F-22 so ive gone to Family only/private airshows with the F-22 and let me tell you. what you saw the SU-57 do and what the F-22 does in Public airshows is cute compared to what the F-22 actually does. Public demos and the Su-57 demo are very boring to watch when you know the real power the F-22 has.

[@Yuck412]

You see, the F22 isn't made to look fancy at airshows though it can do it. It's a 5th generation stealth combat fighter jet, and can do it's job very well. So far the SU57 is basically just a 4th generation airshow jet, that they keep hidden from any actual combat.

Cobra -- When performing the "cobra", the aircraft dramatically increases pitch, up to tilting back, but at the same time *retains the same flight direction.* At the same time, the aircraft reaches angles of attack greater than 90 degrees (Su-27 - 110 °, Su-37 - up to 180 °, that is, "tail forward"). The aircraft then returns to its original pitch angle *with virtually no loss of altitude.*

[@paristo]

I have the Su-57 and this F-22 maneuvers side by side on my screen, playing each for the similar maneuvers (different flight show maneuvers... So not directly comparable) and still the F-22 looks janky... It is little like a americans placing a V8 to the small car and it doesn't anymore really obey the controls but flies more like a on rails. Plenty of power for the size, but not fluid and lose the energy when you would need it, so it is required to be generated back by easing the maneuvers to get going. Like the take-off, it was tail heavy to get off, requiring to raise front wheel for long period to get it off the ground. And then required to fly long at straight to get speed and then do the 80 degree raise upwards, only to be slow to react negative pitch command (while did it nicely). In the Su-57 the maneuvers are controlled, smooth and it is like watching a ballet. I still consider the Su-27 airshow in Paris 1989 as best there is. kzbin.info/www/bejne/mZDPq52MoLugY7c Demonstrating under 13 seconds 360 degree sustained turn and performing verticals straight from slow speeds and then after that the cobras and all. There is no need to acquire speed, or try to make over controlled looking jinks that is like there isn't full authority like with F-22 has the case. Oh, and the cobra maneuver is not about raising a nose. It is about dropping the tail. And altitude shouldn't raise while performing it, but maintain the same altitude when entering and exiting it. This is nicely demonstrated in the some other videos where it really is "I hit the brakes and he fly by", by having in a formation flight the lead pull cobra, exit it and now he is flying 500 meters behind back at the same speed. There is no speed to save the passing fighter as the Su-27 already has the lock on the fighter front. F-22 is truly amazing, but in western parameters.

[@brianmola711]

Something to keep in mind is that it’s not “western parameters,” it’s that the Raptor demo is only allowed to show a fraction of its capabilities. If it were allowed to show everything it’s capable of, we’d be having a totally different conversation.

Agreed - so looking forward to NGAD & Loyal Wingman. 🇺🇸

@@baronvonslambert the issue with ngad is that they want all the benefits of both the 22 and 35 turned up to 11 in one airframe and to be fast but more stealthy..

Hey...thats NO COBRA ! ... sorry to bring this up, mate, but...are you SURE you are a fighter pilot.

[@Teknophreak]

That is what the USAF call the cobra. It is different than Pugachev's cobra.

[@soldat88hun]

Honestly being slow is being dead too, so I'm not sure why you would want to do it unless you are fucked.

[@whydoyouwanttoknow4464]

Are you a fighter pilot?

[@Tommyturbo1981]

1:57 is that considered a cobra maneuver?

[@buttonworld77]

EE Lightning was famous for its spectacular tail-stand take off capability and could sustain 50k ft/min climb rate, F22 manages 69k ft/min which is even more impressive but then there are over 60 years of development between them! Both impressive aircraft for their respective times and perhaps something that we will never see again in the digital age where CAC capabilities rule.

[@aaronhouser2058]

You mentioned the ripples in the after burners...... Just some knowledge for you..... Each ripple you see in after burner is a stage of combustion in the engine. I'm not sure how many the f22 has but the f15e had 7 or 8 if I remember right.

[@richardstoffel6585]

I was there at Oshkosh for this!!!! Literally made my eyes water.

[@MaxAfterburnerusa]

I believe it!

[@P-J-W-777]

The new F15EX demo done overseas was absolutely amazing. That jet was doing things I’ve never seen an F15 do before during an Airshow. It was almost on the level of maneuverability of the F22 but still doing crazy stuff. I love the F22 but I was always on the F23 bandwagon, as I thought I was a more futuristic evil looking plane that was proven to be much faster and more stealthy. I would have really liked to see the 23 in max performance in person.

[@Ilovemyidi]

Lack of dancing control surface deflection is something you see on the F35 called relaxed stability where the plane is basically continuing turns for you, its pretty damn sweet snd a marvel of modern fcs computers…

[@ericb.4358]

[@zvelekva]

You said in the SU57 video that you'd take the F22 over the SU57 in a fight. Can you make a video directly comparing and explaining for the laymen amongst us what in your opinion are the differences and advantages of the two aircraft and how that might dictate the final outcome of an encounter specifically between those two aircraft (rather than what they can do to other lesser aircraft)? Thanks!

[@Anarchy_420]

When you do that vid you should do regular F-22 VS Non-RAM SU-57 and then Chrome Super F-22 *with its 16* Billion dollar upgrades- HMD, stealth tanks/pylons, IRST, Link 16, and so on VS SU-57 with RAM ;)👍

[@MaboloLibwese]

It is 70 000lbs of thrust. 35 000lbs from each engine in after burner

[@Lou-Phil]

“If that doesn’t light you up….I can’t help you.” That is my quote for 2024 lol!

[@IamusTheFox]

With it coming this late in the year, that's really meaningful!

[@toddabbott781]

The Cobra maneuver is just for show. When you can fire behind you there is no need to bleed off all your speed. And with stealth and long range missiles like the AIM-120D and AIM-260 or even a RIM-174... they are going to by KO long before you get into combat.

Can it do a tail stand/Cobra and then a barrel roll, like a pirouette? A 360 and then lay it back down and hit 'em....That would be a crowd strike!

Please create a vid about F-35 Gun Pods, what situations they'd be used for, how much do they seem to adversely impact stealth, and are the Gun Pods themselves stealthy🙏👍

[@dominic150]

If you think the SU-57 is better, you’ve not seen the F-22 in person. I have and watching it literally move at a walking pace down the runway and over the crowd with full thrust vectoring applied is mind blowing. It literally stopped moving forward for a moment, then took off straight up. You can’t understand until you see it. Most impressive thing I’ve ever seen. Not to mention how loud that damn thing is. I competed in DB Drag and it had to be 160+ db. You could feel it in your chest.

[@KristianBennett]

Two questions: 1. How does a Raptor Pilot master the J-Turn reposition without rolling the aircraft upside down? 2. What makes the Hoover Pitch a hard maneuver other than the Gs being pulled?

[@keithmuzondo3539]

yes i see on the f22...the excitement is off the roof....

[@christiandefender9468]

I love it when people say the F-35 is a better aircraft than the F-22. If this were the case than why wouldn't we sell th F-22 to our allies like we do with the F-35? I'll tell you why, because we're #1 and plan on keeping it that way.

We never get the F-22 here in Arizona anymore at the Luke Airshow. Yuma MCAS has the F-22 show need to get over there in March. I feel like the F-22 is on it's way out ill wish I had seen one fly at an airshow one last time. I remember watching the F-14 Tomcat demo team wasn't all that long after that they were gone.

[@samuelzuleger5134]

Honestly, if you love airshows ,AirVenture at Oshkosh's Experimental Aviation Association is hard to beat. It isn't just a few airplanes flying around. It is a week of air shows, demonstrations, acrobatics and, with declassified aircraft, tours. It is also the world's largest convention of FAA, ATC, and other aviation organizations. The F-22 has been a fairly regular attendee for about a decade, The F-22 arrival, with two Raptors performing touch-and-go maneuvers a few days prior was pretty awesome. Only the lighting made this performance better. Only problem with AirVenture is that the air space restrictions limit larger performances, so the Blue Angels and Thunderbirds can't perform there.
