Wow
I’ve never seen anything like that.
It seems to be able to do flips within loops.
That was pretty unreal. What an amazing plane.
UFO! UFO!
What else does it need to do, and it does it stealthy.
Wow!
That was awesome.
Hats off to the pilot for giving the people shuch a show!
A stealthy, high performance, electronic monster.
As manueverable as an old biplane at more than twice the speed.
We saw them at an airshow recently. It is really something to see one come roaring in and then stop and hover using amazing brute thrust. Woo Hoo!
yep- tooo powerful for the U.S.A to have-
I know ...let’s cut the number of planes ordered and cancel the program. (o’bummer did that)
Amazing. I to had seen a raptor demo (Elmendorf AFB)and this clip does it no justice (as amazing as that is). The demo I saw I saw it fly level, flip facing 180, and power to the reverse direction. It can flip, twist, and flip some more. A P-51 Mustang came on scene, from an earlier demo, and the raptor flew in super duper tight formation with the Mustang.
It took the gold at the Acrobatic Aircraft Olympics?
It’s an amazing machine. Seen the Raptor at a few air shows.
Yea, I’ve got some buddies who own a small programming company.. Told them they need to work more so we can buy one of these :)
Wow!
This is worth a looksee.
That is one agile fighter jet. Whew.
made my day. Thanks.
