Thank you for your service! You guys were awesome!

what an engineering masterpeice.

Thank You for your Service. Oh how I miss my enlisted time, 191st FIG MI ANG, '80 - '87

Beautiful bird, showing off her feathers!!

@@DustinFarrell can't imgine getting all these shots in focus - amazing work!

Indeed

If by $1,700, you mean between $44,000 and $59,000 per hour, than you are correct.

@@Markbell73 You completely missed the entire purpose of the comment and I find that amusing. Its a joke because its in slow motion, therefore one hour of the f-22 flying in slow motion is closer 3-5 minutes of it flying in real life. In this 3-5 minutes the cost is 1,700/h.

@@Markbell73 🤦🏻‍♂️🙄

@@robburgundy9539 Chill, Its not that serious lmao

The bee doesn’t waste time explaining to the fly why honey is better than sh*t. Don’t bother fighting stupidity

it’s certainly the most beautiful fighter jet ever made.

how about those slick shapes of 'Fat Amy'? Or an absolute classic beast F-14 Tomcat?

@@OsborneCox.69.420 NOPE ! The Absolute most BEAUTIFUL Fighter Jet ever made is the F-4 phantom ll

@@AnarionOlorin F-14 beats F-22 in the look every day. F-14 is the best looking Jet! F-35 is ugly :P

@@willisix2554 It's a matter of taste. That said, the F-4 is ugly as fuck.

Look carefully at the background scenery around the 2:20 mark to the right of the aircraft - who knows how fast its going but transonic at a minimum judging by that shock wave.

@@nialloshea8564 He's probably just over 300 knots in that instance. Pulling that maneuver at transonic speeds really beats the air frame up. Usually at transonic you'll see the cone trying to form.

There's nothing to see when an aircraft goes supersonic. It looks the same.

@@Turboy65 ummmm, wrong.

@@metalnmunchies9070 I love how the myth of “seeing the sound barrier break” has perpetuated among ground-pounders all over the web! 😆😂🤣

Yeahhh!!

Hello Mat!

Greetings Mat Yes indeed, speechless

Hi Mat love your content!

Pretty much all planes know how to fly.

@@wufongtanwufong5579 f7u rolling in its grave

the rudders act as the f22's airbrake aswell don't they, so that would increase the amount of braking it can do at those low speeds

The F-22 probably learned from the F-18 Legacy and reinforced them.

@@simplymax2125 f22 engineer "....uh oh....."

Another fellow aero nerd, hell yeah!

Another AMAZING fact: 00:30 till 00:42 during that high angle of attack manouvre, take a look on the rudders, a very close and focused look: after being re-energyzed by the lerx (but as that air flux are not laminar but turbulent), both rudders are constantly doing super fast, micro-corrections in order to keep the perfect yaw. What an amazing masterpiece of engineering!!!

thats the burmed fuel and the heat

This is freaking unreal!!! Holy smokes!

The business end of those awesome Pratt & Whitney F119s.

Thermal Energy and emissions cause the heated air particles to jump around like crazy along with being pushed out of the way the vacuum created is then filled up by air on the side of the heated area to enter the heated areas and then energy is transferred to those new air particles which are then pushed out of the way again and the heat forces them to violently crash around and into eachother bouncing off and fizzle higher in to the atmosphere away from gravity, until grey cool down again , these causes the light to fraction and move around the particles thus the fascinating blur is shown the same can be observed om the road on a hot summer day if you put your face down to the pavement and look directly at the black road , you will see the heat cause gas particles to obscure light waves

agreed!

You should be interested in fighter jets.

you're not human

How can anyone not be interested in the F22? That thing is the shit! If people had seen this in '57 they'd have thought the aliens have landed.

if you look at a phase diagram of water you will see there are a few factors that affect phase of water in atmosphere. it could as you have said be pulling hard, it could be a cold or humid day as well. if fuel was just added that is cold that can also cause a super cooling effect causing the water to nucleate and form ice crystals as the atmosphere is "ripped apart" to a lower pressure than surrounding

It's Alaska so probably a lot more dense and cold air allowing for vapor at even low g's When it covers the entire wingspan from front to back, then you know the pilot is not having fun

NEGATIVE! That would be the F-4 phantom ll

I actually think that 5th gen fighters are little boring looking. There are only so many shapes that are both aerodynamic and stealthy. this is why all 5th gen planes looks similar. 4th gen fighters are IMO better looking since those shapes where only determined on how well it goes though the air without stealth considerations.

And it still looks as much as it is from the future like when it was first introduced.

if an aeroplane should fly well, it should be beautiful -marcel dassault
