That says nothing about the plane itself. What happened to the F-22? The fish stinks from the head, and we have a really fowl head now.. a putrid head with all his blind followers.

The joke of a gun goes operational in 2017!
180 rounds. 3 seconds of 25mm. And it cant be used yet.

That is great news and just in time as China and Russia are having a giant live fire naval exercise in the Pacific right now and we need to monitor them.

That says nothing about the plane itself. Pretty much what I've come to expect.
What happened to the F-22? The fish stinks from the head, and we have a really foul head now.. a putrid head with all his blind followers.
The F-22 was killed off by John McCain and others who were all in for the F-35. I suspect the reason for dropping the F-22 is that it was too good at its job and would give America a good edge in Air-Superiority… the F-35, OTOH, seems to be partially planned-obsolesce and partially a form of corporate welfare. (All you need as proof that the Congress isn't loyal to Americans is the overwhelming passage of the Iran Deal
.)

‘AF’ as in globalist’s force for good or ‘USAF’ as it was proudly referred to in the old days before 0dungheap?

Why are they dumping fuel?
To: Enchante
Not as fast as fighter jets, external weapons wipe its stealth out, problems with the o2 system, limited flight ceiling, no women pilots or they will break their necks ejecting, crappy rear visibility, less maneuverability, and carries a couple hundred rounds of ammo (4 short bursts) and that’s it, and not all the software for everything is installed yet,
but it’s combat ready.

Every one that is lost is 330 million bucks down the drain.

That pic is from flight testing, they don’t have those nose probes attached normally.

Didn’t think they are dumping, just humidity in the air making wing contrails...?
