@VERGIS92 You're probably right. Saudi Arabia, for example, just agreed to purchase F-15s, a 40-year-old tried-and-true aircraft. Iraq will be recieving F-16s. And when you think about it, war between nuclear powers aren't going to happen. The more realistic wars will be what we've seen in Iraq and Afghanistan, where it was all about urban warfare. Neither an F-22, PAK-FA, J-20, or Cessna 150 will be able to infiltrate a building.

This video is pathetic, they assume that enemy fighters will have stone age avionics and missiles and that 'stealth' technology will make F22 or F35 really invisible, that may be the case to a country with poor defense program, and above all it fails to consider fake target drone tactics which can fool all the latest Russian and US aircraft... into firing their missiles on fake targets that appear as real planes on their radars...

@pierre7427 nothing is really 100% invisible, especially at shorter range, even plasma technology cannot hide the heat signature of the exhaust gases, even if you defeat all radio signals you still leave a heat signature.

@Amar7605 Now beyond the sales pitch of aircraft manufacturers, most countries that are serious about war employ fake target techniques, not making something invisible but just creating 10-15 more fake identical traces on the enemy's radar, I can assure you that ANY aircraft Russian/US can be fooled VERY easily with fake target technology because it's very cheap, I don't see great necessity for investing in anything more than F-16 and similar cheap and easy to custom-upgrade

@Amar7605 Just a couple of points, 1) There's no such thing as 100% invisible aircraft, all these metamaterials do is absorb a part of the radiation, effectively only SHORTENING the radar's effective range, the only promising technology is active plasma shield, which is yet to be seen. 2) Russians (and Chinese) spy on everything within US, the nature of US industry is easier to infiltrate than the Russian industry, remember Robert Hanssen

@Niteguy705 WRONG, armored combat if FAR different from aerial combat.. there are plenty of documented american air victories in vietnam and later conflicts against great odds, in exercises raptors have been pitted against much greater numbers of older AF aircraft, the pilots that get killed say that they never even knew the raptor was there... the IAF, who fly the SU-30MKI similar to to the SU-30s here were absolutely humiliated by USAF F-22s at Cope India in 12 v 3 fights
For all you F-22 haters... do you honestly think that the US Air Force is going to disclose all the capabilities of the F-22? So, you may think that the Raptor sucks, but you're only basing your reasoning on what you read and see on TV . You nor I have all the facts on how capable the F-22 really is. In my opinion, the J-20 and the T-50 will be kitty chow in front of the Raptor.

For all those who commented on what I said... I just want to say how wonderful it is to finally have a cogent, rational debate without any namecalling or saying how one nation will destroy the other. It is refreshing and more of these types of conversations are really needed on YouTube.
Sure we don't all agree and are very passionate about the fighter jet we like: naturally we want our nation's jet to be the best. In the end, these are all very destructive war machines that are meant to kill.
