I love it when people always try to argue the J-20 or Su-57 are anywhere near the competition these are. Congratulations, China and Russia - you're just now getting technology we had 30 YEARS AGO.
China hasn’t even shown a glimpse of the j-20s capabilities to the public. Probably because it’s not capable or atleast reliable to it’s claims. Then Russia only has 14 SU-57 in service and barely manages to keep up with those, they have dumped so many resources just to get that far. Whereas the US has 125 F-22 in service and before 2030 lockhead will have a 6th bird in the sky that is probably capable beyond what we can imagine right nowZ
The F-22 is such an amazing aircraft. It moves like no other. I'll never forget the time I went to the Ocean City airshow in Maryland. We arrived a day early, and as we were checking in to our hotel the whole place shook. We ran outside and saw two F-22s doing low loops over the hotels as a little sneak peak of what was to come.
@@TheTruthTheyHate Sit back and observe. Our Warthogs are on the way. There is nothing Russia has that can stop them. The F22 cannot be seen and definitely not stopped.
Wake up people ww3 is unleashing. I know we regularly exercise in Europe but the amount of equipment being moved in is scary as in we are getting prepared. Chinas economy is going to collapse in 34 days & they are going to move towards the Taiwan invasion. Russia is holding back & only using 20% of its military power. Their precise strategy is to go all in on ukrane during winter. There is food shortages & everything is way too expensive. It’s going to be a cold winter everyone please prepare
Considering the F-22 Raptor is the replacement for and surpasses the F-15 Eagle in mock combat, yet not one single Eagle has been lost in air-to-air combat against Soviet-made aircraft while destroying over one hundred in return, I don't that Russia will be too pleased to see Raptors closer to its borders. Good.
@James Cooper I'd take it if I got to fly them lol. Fuck parties and making memories, I'm super cruising at mach 2 and pulling ridiculous maneuvers with thrust vectoring.
From what I have read the F-22 is likely the most lethal fighter ever made. The problem is only 187 were built largely due to their cost. But 187 is still a lot of anything with this capability. Amazing to see this footage.
The cost isn’t an issue if they tell the company Lockheed they won’t buy them until they meet fair price for each and truth be told they are the second best fighter in the world behind the SU-57 Which out preforms it as it’s newer and has improvements in aeronautics/super manoeuvrability
The pilot said it was picking apples out of a barrel for locking and simulating kills. It'd go up against a wing at a time on its own and take them all.

Good Morning from Portugal, next year I am going to RIAT 2023 in the UK, I hope the F-22A Demo team appears, or the B-2 again or a rare American aircraft. I think the UK is the best for military aircraft spotting, there are Chinooks, Ospreys, Typhoons flying everywhere every day, especially in London excluding the typhoons. Not to mention commercial spotting too, Heathrow airport is a thing, when I used to live in London for 10 years I saw *A LOT* of military aircraft! Is this RAF Lakenheath?
wierd to see them with external fuel stores. im in hawaii where there are few squirrelled away at hickam afb and they never use them when they go joy riding around the islands.
Those C-5s are regulars at Stewart airport near me. They look like they are to fall out of these sky, just moseying along. The landing path is right over the interstate and it is …distracting to the say the least when one descends into view , perpendicular to the highway.
Stealth bomber was the best aircraft ive ever seen in the UK.Amazing to look at.The loudest was the vulcun bomber last flight,it sounded like a howling noise crazy never forget that sight and sound!
@@MICHAEL-wg2lh By what? Lol. The Russians are using old Garmin handheld GPS devices in their modern fighters. Keep dreaming back at ya. The S400 only has 36 missiles to defend itself. Fire 40 at it it's a gonner. Stealth can be detected just not tracked.
@@MICHAEL-wg2lh What would be taken out in minutes? More Russian SU-35’s? Maybe more Russian t-72’s? By the way….How does it feel to be losing a war to a third rate army in Ukraine? Just curious.
The current F22 has been upgraded and really isn’t comparable to the original aircraft that came out 20 years ago. Everybody is going on about the Russian SU57 but there really is no comparison. Yes, the Russian plane might be more manoeuvrable but it’s the AWACS system the F22 uses that sets it’s apart from the rest. The F22’s stealth has a range of over 200km, the Russian planes don’t come close to this. It’s like the Russian plane is looking in the dark with a flashlight and the F22 has headlights on a car. You won’t ever see an F22, it will see you though. The F22 is more or less a 5.5th generation fighter jet now that it’s been upgraded. The USAF has already apparently treated a 6th generation fighter jet that they hope to have in service by 2030 under the NGAD programme.
There are only 10 SU-57's with 6 operational. You should have at least 10 before it counts. They thought that they would export alot of them allowing Russia to pay for more for herself, but since war in Ukraine orders for SU-57 have been cancelled by India.
Sorry to disappoint you but you cannot be sure about the stealth thing and all that story of one can see and the other can't. You don't know Russian radars, probably noone soo......
Hopefully, this will make our friends in Europe feel more secure with the Russian bully saber rattling. It seems like a small thing but the F-22 has capabilities far beyond what is publically known.
People that say j20 or su57 is a rival to f22 doesn't know what the hell they are talking about f22 is way ahead of those aircraft the f22 is the real deal
Is the F-22 ever going to get an upgrade program (or has it already) or will they divert funds towards F-35 development or 6th Gen development instead? Isn’t the raptor supposed to be used till 2040 or 2050?
What a dumb comment, Russia is massively powerful, the phoney war in Ukraine is just theater for the masses. Russia could destroy Ukraine in an hour if they wanted too.
I'm lucky enough to have seen many amazing aircraft because of the Fly-Overs they do at Michigan Stadium. I've seen the B-2 fly over a couple times, F-22s have don't fly overs as well as other aircraft you wouldn't normally think of for Fly-Overs with helicopters like the Black Hawk and Apache and the C-130 and C-17.

Great footage!
Thank you very much!
Ppl saying they are getting rid of but I've heard about upgrades also
It’s hard to upgrade an aircraft without changing something, which also cost a lot of money and development
Is there lot Titanium in a F-22?
Is that a reason that wouldn’t or can’t build any more of them?
have they upgraded f22s yet
Nope but this's still more superior compare to F-35

@@widodoakrom3938 F-35 and F-22 are both designed for different roles. The F-22 is the brawn, F-35 is the brain.
$10 billion has been approved for F-22 upgrades, so they will begin rotating in for service and the upgrades.
Great video 👍👍👍👍
I thought these weren’t suppose to leave the US?
Exquisite aircraft
Watch out dear SU-57 pilot, glad to have F22 on European soil
Where is that?
Lakenheath, UK
What is the range of the Raptor ?
unlimited with tankers in the air.
@@12vibaba Got it. I didn't think they could get across the Atlantic in one hit. Just out of interest, what's the range without refueling?
@@jediknight5600 About 2 thousand miles.
This is part of the new Rapid Raptor program. They want to be able to have 20 of then anywhere in the world in 24 hours.
