F-22 Langley demo - Backflips!!! Cobra!!!


(For much much more, see http://... )The F-22 demo at the Langley airshow - the first airshow to get a REAL F-22 demo, not just a few passes. The backflips and sudden pitch-ups are reminiscent of those seen in Sukhoi and MiG-29 demos.

tisk tisk,
In WW2 the Fw190 couldn't turn as good as the Spitfire, but it completely raped them over France. Air combat is about energy, not this silly airshow stuff that only makes you a bigger, slower target. A cobra won't out-maneuver a missile.

Before your cock gets Too big, You may want to learn English before Insulting people who speak the english Language. you're a troll easily said. and then... if the Raptor is so Crap, Why is the airplanes actual Performance limitations Classified, and why does every Western allie in the world Want an F-22 over a SU-27?. the SU-27 is old technology - like an F-18, it's been around and can't keep up with European and U.S. Technology. if I'd put my money on 1 Raptor vs. 3 SU's, Raptor would win...

And what?! Pitiful parody down real combat acrobatics of MIG and SU!!! But before the real battle - who is maneuverability - that sharply more effectively resists the weapons of destruction, available in enemy!!!

The PAK FA is probably my favorite looking airplane. I dont think anything will touch the raptor for a while tho lol.

"thats a slow motion move, takes too long and its not pure"

You're deluding yourself.

They can't exactly go faster at higher altitudes during airshow demos. Furthermore, there are some similarities between low altitude, slower speed flight, and higher altitude flight in that there is less air pressing against the planes control surfaces while it's performing maneuvers.

I love Su and MIgg..my son middle name is actualy Sukhoi and he does not even know he is named after russian fighter jets hahaha..But..to be honest..The F-22 is alot better than any russian fighter to "date"..BUT the russians and the indians are making the NEW Sukhoi PAK FA and that is a OMG plane..check it out:) might give the 22 a run for its money
hottunes007 (January 6, 2009 at 5:39 am)
so what move was ya talking about ???? cobra my arss lol

I love Raptors but they cant fuck with a SU35 or SU37 with Thrust Vectoring...or even the Mig 29OVT/S
benhokke (January 4, 2009 at 11:34 pm)
their fucking own fault, dont uck with russians and exept them to let u get away with it. chechnya rebels founded by usa georgia the same georgia attacked civilians in ostetia, aghanistan i dont know what happend there. tell me the way u think attacks on twin tower happend? i wonder what u would say to me
RogerBiggerstaff (January 4, 2009 at 7:24 pm)
Unlike say Chechnya, Afghanistan, Georgia, not to mention their various other Cold War exploits. Again, what does any of this have to do with the F-22(or any other aircraft for that matter)?

cant even do a cobra, what are u talking about
benhokke (January 4, 2009 at 7:18 pm)

It truly is a magnificent achievement of aeronautical engineering. I remember when this plane was a work of fiction in games like Ace Combat 4...
RogerBiggerstaff (January 4, 2009 at 5:56 pm)
I'm not sure I'd use Afghanistan and Russia in the same sentence, when making a point about military prowess.
RogerBiggerstaff (January 4, 2009 at 5:54 pm)
I'm not sure what Foxnews, Europeans, blowing up houses, etc...has to do with the F-22, Su-35, etc...It'd be helpful to stay on topic and compare the relative merits of the various aircraft, such as how much airspeed does the plane bleed off when doing the agressive maneuvers. How quickly the aircraft regains speed. Controllability in high AoA regimes. Kinematic performance benefits of launching AAMs(or SDBs in the DEAD mission) at 65K feet AGL, at M1.8, situational awareness, etc...
Raptor03042 (January 4, 2009 at 3:06 pm)
The F-22 is the most capable air superiority fighter plane in the world.

what a crap airplane, waste of money and resources
benhokke (January 4, 2009 at 6:40 am)
btw that is what u are thinking. u dont know what i am thinking . u would never
benhokke (January 4, 2009 at 6:39 am)
if european are dumb that means americans are dumber. i know that those planes rape your billiondollar trashprojects. and no problems that u turn it on me. go look for yourself and se what planes are best u dumb motherfucker u act like it me vs u nooo its not its american planes vs russian planes. so u go look who got the best and stop blaming me for it
benhokke (January 4, 2009 at 6:38 am)
