I cannot imagine how being an F-22 pilot feels. I know flight hours are a small percentage of the job, but flying those jets has to be the most thrilling experience.
Believe if or not flight hours are a pretty large part of flying in the USAF. According to regulation, they are required to log at least 200 hours a year. Many pilots log over 1000 flight hours per year. To put this into perspective, a pilot in the Iranian Air force is lucky to log more than 100 flight hours per year at most and often log less than 50.
@@ragingassassin6659 I know, the USAF is really big on providing the best, and most, training for their pilots. I was more talking about the broader picture of the a pilots duties. While they get all those flight hours. They spend far more time on the job preparing for flights, debriefing, etc.
20th century was reaching pinnacle of human intelligence. From the invention of airplanes to lifesaving antibiotics, from electricity to nuclear power, from launching satellites to landing on moon, from internet to artificial intelligence, past 100 years has been nothing short of miracle in the millions of years of evolution of human species.
It's not hard to imagine, it's hard to imagine that for thousands and thousands of years we lived in an old-fashioned way, and in the last 70 years, a sudden and sudden electronicization and advancement of technology began.
If you ever have the chance to see a F-22 up and personal it’s worth it. It really does distinguish itself from other fighters, and it does have an alienish mystique about it.
Amazing this model first flew in the 90s and to me it still absolutely looks like it's from the future. Especially when it starts to wiggle it's nozzles. Wouldn't be surprised if it turned into an autobot and stood upright.
that must be such a cool feeling. to know you are one of the lucky few pilots that gets to fly the most badass fighter jet ever made. and this is coming from someone who never had interest in flying. those things are just so damn cool
Knowing that across many thousands of years of human history, amongst millions of warriors, YOU are the most lethal, efficient, and effective warrior to grace the species. Pretty sick.
I get to see these guys practice formations in Savannah Georgia on my lunch and breaks at work. I noticed a pattern over the years of them ramping up the number of drills/practice flights they do in a week, then you don’t see or hear them for a few weeks. And then like clockwork you hear of a new conflict going on in the world.
Oh yeah. They're the size of small houses, which is incredible considering how maneuverable and fast they are. And there are a lot of fighters that are even larger than the f22
I love the sound of it in full afterburn I have been lucky enough to see one break the sound barrier and at low altitude it hurts every part of your body in a good way. I'm so glad the raptor is on my team because I wouldn't want to play against it.
A cameras microphone and phone/computer speakers can’t do it justice. Just standing near a normal jet’s running APU hurts without ear protection, and it’s definitely worse when the engines are running
@@joshuafischer684 Oh absolutely. We had a pilot do a close flyover our ramp once. I was just enjoying the summer sun, picking up some wheel chocks, then he goes screaming right over my head and I just about sh*t my pants

The most shocking thing to me is that the f-15 came out in 1974...
We still do. Look at the amish or more poor countries.
I think of that when I'm flying from Alaska - to vacation❤
Possibly the greatest looking fighter jet of all time…
Right up there with the F16 and F35 imo
Yak-38 tho...
СУ-57 and МиГ-35 RUSSIA🇷🇺🤙🏻
The F-14 Tomcat might have something to say about that…
😊😊😊 на вкус и цвет товарища нет! По мне ф-22 неказистый и уродливый как и ф-35. Из американских самолётов внешне мне нравятся ф-16,ф-18 и А-10

And it's got to be one hell of an amazing plane as the US refuses to sell it to anyone.
First flight was 1997, it was put into service in 2005.

im the plane
The greatest fighter ever built.
Seeing the F22s show off one tenth of their abilities at an air show is otherworldly. And the sound they make.. wow.
That exceptional engine outlet is something which makes this unique among all other fighter jets and providing an edge for maneuvers.
Such a beautiful bird
Master of the skies

If that blows your mind, look up a B-1.
Then to top that, C-5
I love jet fighters and f22 raptor wow fabulous beautiful vedeo 👍💞💞💞

Hard to believe this was thought of and made early 2000s
No, it was designed at the end of the 1980's and went into service in 1997.
VERY expensive to make and too expensive to make exactly again.
