  • Going... going..... going......... ZOOM UP!

  • Maravilloso...

  • it could take of in half that length if it had full afterburner

  • なんという上昇力・・・

  • The reason it looks like it is aiming up without increasing altitude is due to the camber of the wings where (like on most fighter jets) the wings have an air foil on the top side AND the bottom meaning they are shaped much like a bullet from the side. The way it stays in the air at low speeds is by increasing the angle of attack to where it is pointed up using the wind sheer hitting the body of the plane and the camber of the wings to fly straight. At higher speeds it may level out.

  • RAF Lightings have already done this? and better about 40yrs ago.

    Rest My Case Sir.

  • where can i get one of those

  • Does anyone know about the angel to the ground on a take off like this. Can't be very far from 90?

  • i wonder if they will start having vertical drag racing.0 to 30,000 feet in X amout of time.that would kick ass. and yes i know before you comment its a 100 million dollar bird they cant do that it would be expensive. but those redbull flying planes go vertical. maybe put in some circular balloons to go around and a big doughnut shaped one for the finish line. or maybe they will just let us use um. im sure i could figure it out no problem.put in drive. step on gas and pull back on stearing wheel

  • @d3t0x22 , i'd bet my house that the F22 could be beaten to 30000ft by the EE lightning, check it out! designed and built in the late 50's, but could make most, if not all modern planes blush in terms of raw power, it had supercruise all the way back then, sadly they are not allowed to be owned privately here in the UK so none fly here, but you can pay to fly in one in south africa at thunder city, and one is being restored to flight in the US.

  • 1 dislike means there is 1 communist that saw the video

  • Holy shit!!!!

    

  • Awesome site!!!

  • Pffff... Eurofighter Typhoon ain't got sh*t on this!

  • @Hellknight3d

    Agree in modern combat warfare.

    But in take/off climb it has!

  • magnifique

  • an f15 is the only other jet capable of a vertical takeoff.

  • @hemiphil81 Eurofighter Typhoons, Dassault Rafales, Sukhoi Su-27s can do vertical takeoffs. All that glitters isnt american

  • @hemiphil81 The F-15, F-22, and F-16, are the only 3 aircraft in the world I know of, that still accelerate (quite quickly too) when verticle.

  • Awesome aircraft. We need to build about 1000 MORE of them. Of course Obama would not like that because it would make America stronger.

  • careful you don't get it wet

  • The other day i was flying in my twin engine beechcraft when i noticed a raptor circling my home airport, i closed in to investigate and rocked my wings so the pilot could comm, well he knewwhat was good for him so he just stayed on my wing for about 2 minutes and then he just broke away and i assume he headed home. I contacted his Sq. commander on why he was in my area, and there ofcouse was no comment. I dont think i will be seeing that raptor around my home airpport anytime soon. beech1 out!

  • @barmtrail

    LOL you snitched on the fighter pilot? shame on you

  • Did the pilot get in trouble? that would be amazing to actually see a F-22 on your wing..

  • @barmtrail what a tall tale

  • I just came.

  • look like an alien craft when it goes verticle

  • Damn dude. F22 kicks some major ass. I'd hate to be a commy pillot in some SU-27 when I see an F22 come upbehind me. You better pray to Ali or whoever that you get your virgins anyways.

  • It's Starscream!

  • this is amazing!

  • goooooooooo Starscream!

  • @Kingvenom7 You are my new best friend :)

  • this looks unatural. great plane

  • Should kept the camera running

  • Do my eyes desieve me....!!

  • wow he was pulling 5 g's atleast on that vertical climb

  • can you please explain the term 5 g's. I know g is gravitational field strength of 9.81 ms-2; a pull force downwards. But when u say 'he was pulling 5 g's' What does that mean please?

  • Sir, A "G" is an undetermined factor...it depends on the body weight of the pilot or the occupants of the aircraft. In the simplest terms that i can explain is what ever force is created by the governing body (pilot) is equaled by the weight of the pilot therfore creating a "sort of" downforce that is felt within the entire human body. Thatis what i understood. i hope that helps a little

  • 5 times his own body weight +g

  • Concise and precise. Thanks.

  • when he said he was pulling 5g , so that means he was accelerating at 5g.

  • insane

  • daaaaamn

  • where is this?

  • Oh sweet...yes! got the groceries, drycleaning and home:)

  • beautiful bird

  • What a gorgeous aircraft

  • nice!

  • So theoretically, you could hold the plane at that one altitude, head down to the grocery store, land, get what you need, fly back, land, and have all your errands done in a few minutes?

  • unless you get slowed down at the McDonald's drive through.

  • I would love to know how those pilots keep a nose high attitude with afterburners and still keep the Raptor at the same altitude until they pull straight up. Its incredible!

  • I miss waking up on the homestead airforce base and seeing that from my window almost every day!

  • Man do I love jets! Especially the Raptor!

  • As do I!

  • No that isn't true. It does have a greater than one to one thrust to weight ratio, but that doens't affect its aerodynamics. It still needs wings to fly. Your thrust to weight ratio effects the angle at which you can gain altitude before you start losing airspeed. Like the c,d model Eagles the raptor can gain both altitude and airspeed in a dead vertical climb. But without wings stabilizing its flight it would crash.

  • man, what a climb.

  • yea thats right...this was at oshkosh 2007

  • @penguinofthewest looks like starscream in transformers

  • @koolmazi it is starscream. Starscream is an F-22 Raptor

  • @EmmyThaDecepticon lmaooo...

  • does anyone know what afb this is?

  • I think it's Whitman airport in OshKosh, Wisconsin.

  • awsome, i love f-22s.
