That's one hell of an airplane right there.....

Those are NOT impressive photos of that little beast. you should catch a few when she is loaded for war.

Stripped down version but still looks elite.

i gotto get me one of these

:thumbsup

ya they don't load them up for public air shows =))

I have a ton more ill upload later of the blue angels and a bunch of old WWII planes that I took real close up.

BTW thats the first time the Raptor22 was even in NY =)

hahah hell yea!

The US Air Force will continue devolping the best fighters in the world, and no one can debate that.

you have to feel the power of this jet when it passes over you its an incredible rush!

dude its starscream

nice looking piece of machinery

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/F-22_Raptor little more info:

Unit cost US$137.5 million =))

Imagine the skills needed to fly one of those. Man it must be such a rush...

shit at that price..ill buy only one
now to find parking in my neighborhood

Very cool pics :)

probably only the best of the best get to fly them. amazing machines!

damn, I bet it is cool to fly those things!

cool photos, thanks for sharing

Airplanes have propellers old man, that right there is a JET. :winkwink:

How do they look different when they're loaded for war? I thought all the pointy, blow-em-up stuff was all internal.

You can't see the weapons even when the airplane is loaded for a mission, the weapons are stored in the fuselage this guarantees maximum stealth capabilities.

Once the pilot is ready to shoot the missile the bay area opens and the weapon is brought out to be launched the it closes.

This is why this airplane has a very low radar trace, it is not totally invisible tho.The problem is that if and when you and see it..it's too late.

great more of the U.S money spent on shit we dnt need

Any P-51 Mustangs there?

Great pics Mike.

what an amazing aircraft.

WOW! amazing pics...

Dayum...

I remember reading f16's were 30 million a pop years ago. I guess it costs an extra 100 million to get a jet that doesn't fall out of the sky like an f16.

They used to have the Cox Communication Air Show out here in AZ out at an old air force base in deep mesa. It was always a good time with cool planes, but then all the "not in my backyard" sons a bitches moved in and the show was permanently cancelled. Pisses me off.

Wicked cool.

Air shows are great..nice pix

Love them as well:thumbsup

I see them alot when I'm at Las Vegas Motor Speedway and they are flying in and out of Nellis AFB

Then comes a day when we really, really need 'em. Even you would say so that day. Then would you be glad we made the investment? The investment also acts as a deterrent.

you know part of it is made around where you live right?

yo Mike where was that taken? Republic airport?

to bad they canceled the one here in ft Lauderdale :-(

i like more this one:

Those shows are really impressive! You have to have really big balls to do that kind of flying!

Nice Pictures!

Yo dog whats cooking....BTW...F22 raptor will have no EXTERIOR weapons so i dont think it would look any different...thats the purpose of the aircraft.....to be stealthy....thats why weapons are in internal bays

Unless a replublican stays in office we will never get to see any in action....

You know next time USA bombs anyone--and they say iran has those real good russian missle defence batteries---F22's will probably be the main used plane---

not an advocate of war but nothing better than rolling up and watching war on TV...The 1st war with Iraq was best live TV ever...and they didnt have TV's then like they do now

I see those guys flying by all the time when Im offshore fishing In Mexico Beach (next to Tyandall AFB) I have been 40 miles out and had them go supersonic over us...pretty fucking impressive.

heres one of my pics at an airshow

http://www.mikesouth.com/archives/misc/tyafb.jpg

and ya I have seen em loaded, they train the pilots at Tyndall

These things are sick. I saw a show on the Military channel about these.. During simulation, one of these took out 5 F-16s before they even saw it on radar

That is impressive!

On another note the F-117 Nighthawk has retired.

We'll miss you stealth fighter :(

I built this a few years ago, put a lot of flights on it.

A guy I know flies F-16s and he meet up with a few f22 to do a cross country flight, he snapped a few pics with his cell phone while they were refueling
