Graham Family Reacts To Americas New Super F-22 Raptor 

As a Retired Air Force member the Air Force doesn't " keep up" we " keep ahead" of our ADVERSARIES

The reason is the U.S. air force has the best trained pilots in the world They spare no expense when it comes to training.

They don't have to keep up. They have to stay ahead of others.

The Raptor is 27 years old, and the N.G.A.D. project is taking a minute(the Raptors replacement), so,it was time for upgrades. That said, before the upgrade, it was still the baddest aircraft in the air!

For the military security, they don't joke around about it. A story from a family member, before going to a certain area that was marked top secret you would first remove all electronics like phones or anything. He knew a guy that forgot that he was still wearing a fitbit watch and walked into the secure area. Immediately got tackled and removed from the area. Lost his security clearance and effectively ended his military career right there. If you have a high security clearance then you make sure you don't say anything because it can be years in prison if you do.

Some months ago, the indian government has said that they were able to track the chinese j 20 stealth fighters. The Russian government is not putting their stealth fighter SU57 in combat over Ukraine because they know it doesn't have the ability that they say it has.

The coolest tricks F22 do are the Mongo Flip and Falling Leaf. They dont look like the plane should still be airborne when doing them. Just crazy

The Pilot who sank back down in his seat was Experiencing Negative G's during Negative G's they can actuall "float"

I know I’ve commented this on a previous video of yours, but I have a friend from high school who said it was his goal to be an F22 Raptor pilot, and that’s exactly what he’s doing now. I caught up with him a year ago and some of his stories were insane. He even looks like a character from Top Gun

If the public can see it ,it's at least 40 years or more technology.the newest technology you won't see

The reason that production of the F-22 was stopped at 187 was that each one costs 237 million dollars. The aircraft was designed to fight the old Soviet Union and by the time it entered service the Soviet Union had already broken up.

Hey guys. Just wanted to warn you that there is a military channel called Fluctus that is striking reaction channels. The Beesley’s got several strikes. I don’t know if you have reacted to any of their stuff or not but better safe than sorry.

I got to see one of these a few years ago at a race weekend. I was NJMP while the next door air port was having an air show. They actully paused my race because the jet did a flyover as we were lining up. Everyone of us was looking up instead of looking at the starter flags. I got to see the full F22 show later in the day, that plane can do things you wouldn't think possible Amazing plane

You ask how can they maneuver like that. They don't actually, they simply move the stick and foot pedals in a way that indicates to the fly-by-wire system what it is they want the plane to do. The fly-by-wire computing system then tells which control surface to do what to give the pilot what he wants. The pilot is not directly connected to or in direct control of the flight surfaces, the computer takes the pilots input then the computer controls the aircraft.

We don’t keep up with,we’re keep ahead 🇺🇸

Here to once again request “Americas War Horse Marine: Sergeant Reckles” by The Fatt Electrician

The F-22 will be able to handle itself because the pilots are part of the plane. They are trained to a fine point, and they develop great instincts as to what the plane can do.

Disorientation and nausea aren’t the things to worry about. G’s are the thing. Watch regular ppl take rides with the Blue Angels. There’s lots of videos on YT. Most untrained ppl can’t pull over 7 g’s. Watch them go unconscious for a few seconds, then come back and tell the pilot the6 had a long dream. Consider that a 7 g turn means you weigh 7 times your normal weight during the turn and all your blood tries to pool in your feet…in seconds. It’s interesting.

You can get a mini split A.C. unit pretty reasonably priced. They are very easy to install. They are worth checking out, and they're very energy efficient.

The test pilots have nerve too. First man to walk on the moon, Neil Armstrong, was first a test pilot. That role earned him the consideration to be the astronaut history remembers.

Think of this, it was a little more than 60 years from the Wright Brothers too landing on the Moon.That is just Mind Blowing!!!

Thanks! Love family channels like this, love from Canada

F-22 is just popular air show stuff and old technology. Please remember the US has about 7 highly classified "black project" fighters and bombers including the TR-3B which reduces gravity by 85% like a UFO. They have high energy lasers which can vaporize small buildings and most vehicles. Those are the black triangles with bright lights in each corner seen all over the world. They just admitted the SR-72 Darkstar is real after it being seen for half a decade if not more. The NGAD (F-24?) is already flying and it makes the F-22 look like the Red Baron in WWI. It comes with at least 4 drone "wingmen" which had their own bombs and missiles. These wingmen drones have worldclass "decoy technology" meaning they can simulate the radar signature of most of the world's jets and missiles. Famous last words: "that just one of our jets...the radar says so".

I say that the USAF should keep the F-22 Raptor in service when the NGAD comes in service. Even though it's been flying for a long time.

It’s not to keep up, it’s to keep ahead!

Solid! Top KEK! Peace be with you.

Jono, you still need to show Garren the cockpit view from the Blue Angels. He’ll freak out.

I couldn't help but chuckle when the narrator implied that the Raptor couldn't keep up with the J20. Yeah, ok....

the F22s role is to sneak in undetected and start painting targets for the two F15 Strike Eagles 70 miles behind

I love your videos guys! Makes me proud to be defended by the best air force in the world 🇺🇸🇺🇸

Fighter pilots and such seem to consider it a challenge to make new passengers puke. They give ya a bag when you belt in. Lol

You should see the video of 2 F-22 Raptors chasing a SpaceX rocket in a vertical climb.

They have did mock dogfights with 2 raptors against 12 F-15’s and they knock all of them down before the F-15’s can even pick them up on radar.

Thank you for your information, enjoy your channel.😊

As a former single engine propeller pilot, I'm no expert on jets. But to answer the young lady's question about do the pilot's do anything special? The answer is yes, the pilot wears a special suit called a G-suit. That uses air bladders to inflate from the ankles up to squeeze the blood out from the legs 🦵 to keep it in the upper body. It's done in an effort to keep the pilot from blacking out and going unconscious. But this alone isn't enough due to the G's, these pilot's put their body's through, so it has a special name that fails me currently. But it's where you take a big breath hold it, them squeeze everything in your core till it feels like your eye's will pop out! And these guys do a lot of sit-ups!!!!..lol...from Wyoming USA 🇺🇸 👋🤠

Be careful guys. Lots of RU-vidrs lately are getting 3 strikes in quick succession on videos like this, maybe ending their channels. Lav Luka and The Beesley’s.

My uncle was a US Navy fighter pilot for over 30 years. I have been able to get rides in a couple of the aircraft he flew. I have been past Mach 1 and it is one of the greatest rides you will ever experience. The only thing more exciting is the catapult launch from an aircraft carrier.

They are always moving forward with technology and improving things for air dominance if We stop moving forward then other countries will catch up or surpass us. That's not good. I Love Your Military Videos. Well I Like everything You do Keep up The Great Work. Love The Video's Were Everyone Gets Involved especially When Everyone is Excited. But I Realize That is Tough to Do. Sill Really Good Job.

Its not just the jet that makes it the beast is also the pilot. We spend more on combat training than any country in world and we have the most combat experience.

Have you done the brian shull sr71 speed story?

Many people felt (and feel) the same way about the F-14 Tomcat. The Tomcat was arguably the "sexiest" fighter jet ever built. It was also "unique" with sweeping wings, it just looked angry and hostile and fit to destroy stuff. BUT...as sexy and beautiful as the F-14 is, it would just be target practice for the F-22.

It's not because the F22 is less capable than other planes so they stopped making them, but it's because it's too exensive to maintain it. Another reason is because its range is low.

It would be great to listen to a WW1 pilot speak about the F-22

Strongly recommend the Hollywood silent film epic Wings, about WW1 American fighter pilots. Released in 1927, it was the first film to win Best Picture Oscar.

I don't know if you guys have seen anything on the sr-72 (given that you showed off the model of the sr-71 in this video) but it's been confirmed by lockheed martin to be in development. It's supposed to be fitted with a laser weapon because it flies so fast it would run into it's own munitions if it were firing bullets or missiles.

The USAF already has laser guns. On planes and handheld guns! 👍🏻🇺🇸🙏🏻

WW1 enemy pilot seeing the f22... "we only lost because of the aliens!"

We have F22's doing fly overs regularly here. We are close to Canada. If I can get a good pic I'll send it to you. We also have F35's which is a very loud plane. It's too loud for most folks.

They stopped making more F-22's because it was so expensive. As politicians normally do, they didn't negotiate the price and overpaid for it. They originally wanted around 700 of them but decided to cut the contract short at nearly 200.

Did the video just say China and Russia has 5th generation fighters 😂😂

The NGAD fighter jet is even more jaw-dropping and out of this world amazing. The Raptor program is very expensive. This why there’s only a few made and will be replaced by the NGAD jets.

There were potentially a few people alive in 2005 when the Raptor was put into service, they had been 18 and in WWI if they lived to 105 years old. 10 Years Since the last WWI RFC pilot Dies at age 106. BRITAIN'S last surviving World War One pilot has died aged 106. Hubert Williams was one of the pioneer aces who flew flimsy biplanes into combat from 1914. So there's probably a few that saw the Raptor.

It is a competition. The arms race. Trying to have the technological advantage on your enemies.

Not sure if you’ve done a review of the “IKE Shooter Gangnam Style” video (it’s pretty old) but it’s a really fun watch if you’re into fighter jets and aircraft carriers. I know Leia and Garin would enjoy it. There’s even a stick-horse!

They stopped production because of the high cost per unit. It was cheaper to buy the F-35s at the time. But the price per unit was greatly reduced as the years went on, but it was already decided to stop buying them. That is the only reason why 200 of them were built.

NGAD is the plane that might actually be the first of its kind to actually have a shield system installed... that's the rumor going around these parts of the airbases. Just letting you know that, it's not a certainty, but based off of what has been transported and the research equipment being shipped, they're thinking this plane might be the first piece of U.S. military equipment to get a shield of some sort.

~ 9:10 - training begins with three months of academic instruction at Tyndall AFB, after which pilots receive six months of F-22 flight instruction at JBLE, which is divided into four phases: Advanced handling characteristics Basic fighter maneuvers Beyond visual range intercepts Air combat tactics That's starting .. where the kids begin

Different departments at Lockheed Martin require different levels of government security clearance

The F-22 may be more maneuverable and less visible to radar but the F-15 is till faster and can carry 3 times the missiles.

Jono, you forgot the pic of you in the apron!

The cost to maintain and operate the F22 is VERY expensive. That is why they are short in number and usually some one trying to get rid of them.

Ngad has flown and is where it’s at the USA also already has a 6th gen airframe in service the b-21 raider

Figure we the USA are probably spending over 1 trillion dollars this year overall on defense budget we do spare no expense. Nice to see where a little of my tax dollars go

I get what kat said if you drive a Corvette every single day then fly this plane the car will always seem slow and boring , facts 100

The j turn is used to put the brakes on so a plane behind you would pass you then the F22 will come in behind the enemy

Then There Is Son of The Blackbird! SR 72!!

The biggest problem with the raptor, price tag

👍👍

Is it more than 100 degrees Fahrenheit (38 Celsius) with more than 70% humidity where you live? If not, sounds like a refreshingly cool day compared to mine in USA

After hearing you say that about the WW1 pilots and it not being that long ago. Think about this. It was only 66 years from the Wright Brothers first flight to Man walking on the Moon.

The future plane pics are from movies like stealth and maverick or cgi

You need to check out the YF23 that was the aircraft that was competing against the 22. Some say the 23 was the aircraft that should have gotten made.

Ace Combat 4 Shattered Skies. The soundtrack. It's a show.

The F-22 is so good that NATO pilots during training only know an F-22 is in the area when planes start to be taken out.

The pilots go through g force training to be able to cope with all the g forces the pilot goes through in the jet

They had this technology in the 90s lol

The plane you saw at 10:39 is a fictional plane from a movie called "Stealth". Also the Russian SU-57 and the Chinese J-20 are considered "low-observable" fighters and thee F-22 is considered a "stealth" fighter, the F-22 shows up on radar about the size of a Bumblebee. the other 2 places I mentioned have a much larger radar signature.

She is right....we should have never stopped production of the F22....Russia and China are not close and we could produce more F22s and develop next generation technologies

Check out the SR 72 Dark Star

I had a friend years ago who dated an F-16 pilot. She said his self confidence was borderline arrogance. Sorta what I want in my fighter pilots, surgeons, lawyers, etc.

hey will you react to “What new marine corps recruits go through in bootcamp” by Business Insider? and maybe “Still in Saigon” by charlie daniels band

These fighter pilots have been flying since they were babies Almost and they're used to this because they fly like this every day.If you flew like this every day, you would love it, but because it's not your normal way of living.It's a foreign thought and feeling.

God It is another hot day, I love the F-22 and F-35 but I wouldn't want to fly it due to knowing that going to the restroom would be difficult I do like the B-2 Spirit Bomber a lot more than the F-22, to be honest.

Look into the Sr 72

The production stopped because it was super expensive, and two presidents thought we didnt need high intensity warfare and stopped it but few years later it proves they were wrong but it was too late to start up production again

The US have F-22 and F35A F35B to Dominate the sky, so check out F35

Our military tech is hard to beat when we pioneer 95% of it.

Just for information, don't react to anything "Fluctus" puts out. They will give you a strike.Just did it to "The Beesleys"

To become a Fighter Jet piolet, you can't have anything wrong with your body. Any kind of problem even anemia will disqualify you.

19 G’s….You’re both asleep. I don’t think you’d stay awake at 10 G’s 😂 You can watch civilians and celebrities ride along in other jets…..They puke or pass out.

The dark star that was anouced goes 6 to 7000 mph its 50 to 100 years ahead of anything theres videos on it

See they are spending on F35 , also no cameras for sure i couldn't even carry a camera on me in the factory of Honda car plant and no cameras when i was a armored nuclear security officer loved that job im a USCoast Guard veteran

F 22 is old technology.

Youse (that is all of you) should emigrate to the USA. We'd love to have you.

You Should react to Darkstar is real.

Mr. Graham, I have given up offering suggestions, they go nowhere. Questions go unanswered, yet we are asked to like and subscribe. Time for some new content. don't you think?

On paper the Chinese J-20 isn't a piece of shit. In actuality it's a tofu jet and an interceptor not a fighter .

Cameras and computerization

Just imagine.This is what th US shows what it's capable of. What is the US actually capable of?

Constant changing technology they have to retire old technology
