Do not attempt, your experience may differ. This is just a telling of MY experience, not a recommendation!

F-22 Raptor is the most beautiful badass fighter jet I have ever seen. The fact that it has thrust vectoring and true stealth is already an engineering marvel that no other fighter jet in the world can even compare. As advanced as the F-35 may be, it still doesn't even come close to defeating this fighter jet.

The aircraft on display (S/N 91-4003) was one of nine F-22s built for Engineering, Manufacture and Development (EMD) testing, and it rolled off the assembly line on May 22, 1999. Assigned to the 412th Test Wing at Edwards Air Force Base, Calif., the aircraft made its first flight on March 6, 2000. After completing its phase in the test program, this aircraft came to the museum in January 2007...

I was just there last Sunday, and I was blown away at how many pieces they had, and all the volunteers that were so eager to tell us little stories about a lot of the aircraft. It's only a couple of hours from where I live and we plan on going back very soon! My son has been talking about aircraft nonstop since the top gun movie came out, but he discovered a video on the xb70 and that was the nearest thing on earth to him. He didn't know it was in the last building and was getting bummed out that he didn't get to see it, then when he walked through the door his jaw dropped! I was impressed as well lol. I've been showing him your videos this week and he is a huge fan! Thank you for showing us in detail everything on all these planes. I'm glad he's watching something like this rather than the silly stuff he use to watch.

USAF F-22A Block 2 91-4003 Airframe was overstressed during tests with two external tanks. G-load limiter was exceeded when control was lost after the aircraft passed through the wake of an F-16. Maximum was to be 7.3 Gs but actually climbed to 11.7 Gs. Flight control software was found to be the problem. The aircraft landed safely but never flew again. Repairs were estimated to cost $3.6 million so the aircraft was written off and relegated to duty as a GIA.

More than almost anyone knows. Look at the stated top speed. "1500 MPH," yet it is able to do 1200 MPH without any afterburner at all. Even a mediocre afterburner will increase thrust 2x. So you think more than double thrust only nets an additional 300 MPH? The F-22 is drastically faster and more capable than the publicly-stated figures suggest.
@Tomas-yg1xz 2 жыл бұрын
@@drunkenmessiah I believe it still needs afterburners to break the sound barrier and get to speed where it can supercruise. Remember that the amount of drag starts to decrease again past mach 1.2 or so. Also top speed isn't just about engine power but also structural integrity. You can damage a plane by going too fast so while the option of going above normal top speed at the cost of permanent damage may have been considered, it's not really a normal feature of the plane.

There is just so much to see it's unbelievable. What struck me was the F-111 which I believe is somewhat nearby the F-22. I couldn't believe how small the F-22 actually was and also that it's really not separated off from the other aircraft and therefor I actually thought it was a partial mockup of the plane and didn't spend much time at it unfortunately.

Paul- also worked these jets when I was at Langley AFB, now Joint Base Langley/Eustis. We were the first operational base to get the F-22A’s. Replaced A LOT of canopies on them in the first year or so because the coatings inside and outside of the canopy were just not lasting and it took away from its stealth profile. Especially when we went to Alaska with them for the first time. Back when I was in a new canopy assembly about $750,000. We were swapping them like crazy and price didn’t matter. They started refurbishing them but the cost was still really high. I don’t miss working on them. I do miss working F-15C’s and D’s. The Eagle will always be my first love. AIR POWER!!! Also that jet is from the 94th Fighter Squadron so I definitely worked that particular jet at one time. The 94th’s motto is “Hat in the ring, best in the wing!” Great video as usual! 👍🏻 Oh, it’s got the wrong ejection seat in it too. Obviously they used the actual one that was in it on another aircraft. F-22 has a center D ring you pull to eject. Not the side handles like an F-15

were only seeing what we have been allowed to see for 20+ years but like he said it's what's on the inside that's the secret to what makes this the daddy of all fighter jets, for a quarter of a century the US has kept their "ACE card" close to their chest and revealed statistics - which is what they want us to know - it's what it can "really" do that we don't know about that's so fascinating about this beast
