Pratt & Whitney F119 - F-22 Raptor engine developement retrospective

[video: Pratt & Whitney]

[@Andre-mi6fk]

I am so proud to be walking through the same hallways these men walked through once. As an engineer on the 6th Gen, it's more than a career, it's a family.

[@MiguelRodriguez-zd6tq]

Thirty years later the enemy still cannot manufacture a similar engine. The current crop of 5th generation jets are powered by 4th gen engines. Go Raptor!

The SU35 engines with its thrust vectoring systems is far more capable and impressive,than the F22,don't forget that it is 1990's Tech,Notice that when the F22 does shows in Nevada,for(gulping)paying public,it always have its after-burners on(so much for super cruise...!!!)And the O2 Raptor's system,is still not fixed above 10.000 Feet,Pilots are still complaining about respiratory problems,they basically need to put the plane apart to fix it because the entire system is deeply buried into the planes skin,so they have to "destroy"a plane,fix the O2 tubbing system and"rebuild"it,The O2 System is built under the stealth skin,on the YF 23 The O2 system was built and accessible directly from the cockpit,and fed threw the engines,on the RAPTOR,they went with canisters,just like safety masks in Large airliners!!!and"then re-filled after every missions with an exterior valve,some Pilots had to plunge fast to get back to a breathable level,because the canisters were empty....!!!!!

Idiot MiG 25 Foxbat with Khibney jammers , irbis AESA radar n Kinjhal hypersonic missiles will will still beat any flying fucking machine on this realm.

As you all gleam and wonder in amazement. . .I am not so sure. . .Let us deal with reality. . .The idea of an engine tech in hazmat gear is ridiculous, and WW II thinking. . .It envisions a War where fighters are flying to attack targets and protecting bombers, then coming back for maintenance. . .My friends, this may have been in 1991 but if something like that happens today its going to be with the gear we have and use of chemical weapons are no different then nukes. . .If a country or dictator type were to use even a rudimentary chemical weapon on a US base their backyard would soon as a glass yard and you know this. . .The last numbers I heard of the cost per hour to fly a Raptor was in the neighborhood of $70,000 "Per Flight Hour" It is a beautiful and amazing plane, absolutely, I take nothing from its design, power and ability. . .However, it will never be used for what it was designed for and will be in the end a foolish waste. . .

@@daveberry5901 lol..you understand nothing about the ability and research that leads to the f35 engine just f119 advanced. The chemical sites doesn't mean that's what it was designed for mostly showing how easy to maintain that engine is. The cost per hour is not much different from other aircraft with stealth aircraft yes more maintenance with ram coating and such. The engines are very reliable and yes America needs an advantage over our adversary's especially in 2020 with people and their craziness.

[@daveberry5901]

@@dwizzleusa4202 I said it will never be used in the roll it was designed. . .The idea of an on going fight where jets are coming and going back and forth in the situation this video provided. That is what I said.

The heart of F-22 Raptor! ❤️

no comments? damn that was awesome

[@williamkillingsworth2619]

Most youtube bloggers dont care or have respect for what it really takes to build these aircraft. They prefer mindless battles of dumbassery

2:45 Is he doing a Back to the future pose? Or am I just a film buff who's looking to far into stuff?

[@xxp417]

why don't they build a fighter with a single F119 like they did with the F100 in the F-15 and the F-16

[@MechDesignTV]

+xxp417 The F135 engine used by the F-35 is closely related to F119, not as close as the basically same F100 used in the F-15/F-16 but the principal is similar.

[@brandonbarr2784]

Such a good design china stole what they could. Theirs has a rice cooker

[@baddonkey6876]

Northrop had them beat, politics won it for them......but i will say, when we have accomplished our best innovations, it's always when we pit ourselves against ourselves instead of against another country

[@dwizzleusa4202]

Northrop Grumman aircraft company Pratt Whitney was in competition against General electric for engine selection. Northrop Grumman was in competition with Lockheed Martin for aircraft selection for the ATF program. The yf23 done few things better a little more stealthy but f22 was better in lot other areas

[@memememine1]

@@dwizzleusa4202 Wouldn't the F23 do well in the modern world when stealth, speed, and range which the yf23 did better would be more important than out right turning performance?

[@mabbook]

@@memememine1 The YF-23 was an incredible aircraft but the point of this fighter program was for an air superiority aircraft. That means that it can go up against any aircraft in the world in a dog fight and come out on top and the YF-22 was the better choice for that because of its thrust vectoring. In hindsight, because of what we use F-22's for which is a fast, long-range, and stealthy interceptor and strike fighter it would have been a better choice to go with the YF-23.

[@memememine1]

@@mabbook Yeah you are right. The F22 fits the program requirements better.

Thrust vectoring engines , Russians & Chinese still can't figure out how to build an even somewhat of reliable engine

[@dorange_]

really? Russian had 3D tvc

[@michaellim4165]

Russians have thrust vectoring in 4 directions.
