F-22 Raptor Does A Loop On Its Axis Performing The Elusive Falling Leaf
Talk About Stability. It's no secret the F-22 Raptor is one of the most maneuverable, if not THE most maneuverable fighter aircraft in the world. A strong case could be made that fourth generation Sukhoi and MiG aircraft also have thrust vectoring and could do the same, but there's really no way of telling which is better. One thing's for sure though. The Raptor looks great when it does it. Link direct to video https://youtu.be/P8zPh8kAcAU (frontlinevideos.com) Más...Sort type: [Top] [Newest]
I place on the politicians that got this project scuttled in favor of the F-35, which is a less than stellar aircraft.....My sneaking suspicion is a lot of palms were greased on that deal
Too much of a threat to our enemies so the Kenyan cancelled it. That and Gates being Gates.
We can question this type of performance and the need to be able to do it but there is not one pilot in this group who would not love to be at the controls!
Interesting flying.... Fun way to learn how the plane responds under full stall conditions, I guess.
Proof positive that some guys & gals STILL get to play in the sand box (lol)!!!!!
Fascinating and amazing but I have to ask, why? Doing those maneuvers in combat would just make it easy missile bait.
