F-22 raptor backflip Immelman turn at Rockford Airfest 09

[Battleaxegunner]

That's definitely a Kulbit..Or either way it might be close to one.

[TQLCVNCH]

Why does it look like kulbit to me

[Immelmannism]

This is why thrust vectoring kicks ass! lol

[Nukle0n]

There's no Immelman though, no Barrel Roll either. He does a loop and some Aileron rolls.

[Elthenar]

The SU-37 will simply be a souped up SU-27. It will have very good maneuverability but it simply won't be able to compare to an F-22 in any other area.

[vinkelnisse]

F22 looks very heavy!!!

[deathcar]

@vinkelnisse It's not that heavy, I saw one video where just the pilot was able to lift it off the ground all by himself!

[Jedi391]

That SU-37 would look really cool to, right up until it was blown out of the air by the missle it never saw coming while it was "parawetting" away.

[Universeschild89]

that aint nothing compared to what the su-37 can do, the su-37 can put one nozzle down and the other up with its thrust vectoring and perform a parawet in flight without having to go up at the same time it also has 360 degree thrust and can also do side manuvers that the f22 will have a hard time doing.

[deepoceanfan]

@Universeschild89 will you pro su-37 people just shut up already. stop comparing! Even though thats the only reason you came to this video.



[Universeschild89]

@deepoceanfan Why because you know it can out manuver it dont get me wrong im a fan of the f-22 anyday of the su-37 when in comes down to a dog fight im just saying the su-37 has better manuverability.

"And... This is how you play Ace Combat..."

[Th3M4ni4C]

That shit is so fucking dangerous, it is one of the most dangerous maneuvers you can do in an airplane

[sporqer]

@Th3M4ni4C thats not just an airplane........

[TheAngryDuckman]

Shaky, but great capture.!

[BooBooStainz]

do a barrel roll lol

[Golfke666]

it was a pure looping :) sweetly performed. the Immelman and backflips are other things this pilot can certainly perform when asked/needed!

great post :)

[usaf2478]

Ahhhhh.. The magic of thrust vectoring. And thats a power loop by the way.

[usaf2478]

Ahhhhh.. The magic of thrust vectoring.

[blockwars999]

This is sooo cool! Ive watched the f22 perform this and other manuevers. Im beginning to think wings are becoming over rated! LOL

[x64600]

This looks like the pilot is trying to pull of a Pugachev's Cobra, but failing.

An Immelmann turn is, Level flight, then half loop, And 180' degree belly roll. With the plane now going in the opposite direction it came from. While the classic true Immelmann turn was a half climb stall, and 180' spin, without the roll. Like a skatboard doing a 180 up a halfpipe, in a perfect straight line. Much cooler, and much harder to do. Modern planes are not designed well for a true Immelmann turn.

[timbowindsor]

Where was the Immelman maneuver?

[KingCobraOutlaw]

just the breathing u have to do to not pass out or puke while controlling the aircraft

[SHAKER2112]

Sorry, but I didn't see an Immelman anywhere in this video. Nice demonstration of the aircraft's capabilities though :^)

[1ceC0ldKill4]

this is just a normal looping...

[KingCobraOutlaw]

@1ceC0ldKill4 it may be standard but some guys do it really great not saying his was the best but a real immelman isnt easy to a normal person

[pdutube]

Holy Crap that was awesome! Thrust vectoring + mega power = Awesome!

[dbriscoe25]

he didnt do an immelman turn in this video

[KingCobraOutlaw]

@dbriscoe25 its like in snowboarding when they do a variable trick

[KingCobraOutlaw]

Man that guy is fast and it looks like he cant be knocked out by conventional methods and his plane might have been worth a few dollars

[KingCobraOutlaw]

holy shit

[nitrouselement]

0:16 WOW!! Are you kidding me!?

[armycadet127]

I WAS THERE!!!

[yakster321]

Great job on the video... it's awesome!

[littlemog92]

thank ya kindly

[walker164]

starfox barrel roll!
