    it's like in those su 57 air show vids, except raptors actually get to fly and train instead of rusting in a hanger.

    • @FacitOmniaVoluntas.
      @FacitOmniaVoluntas. Рік тому +7

      Raptors also exist in meaningful numbers, have modern avionics, are actually stealth and can fly without exploding mid air and crashing due to catastrophic engine failures. The SU-57 should have never been built. It is an abomination. After India exited the PAK-FA program, Russia should’ve taken the L and admitted that they don’t have the knowledge or funds to build a fifth gen fighter by itself. Instead they did what Russia does every time they “develop” something new. They took a Soviet platform, the SU-27, made it look more modern, put some western technology in it, vastly overstated its capabilities and called it a day. The result is an SU-27 with a bodykit that relies on technology from Russia’s sworn enemies. Lovely!

  • @mikethompson2650
    @mikethompson2650 Рік тому +17

    I was in the USAF back in the 70s and used to watch C5s land at Tinker AFB. It was amazing how slow they look when landing, they just hang in the air or it looks like that. They are so large the slow landing speed looks like a crawl. It would have been great if the C5 had waggled its wings in gratitude when you came along side. Please do more of these kind of videos must more interesting than the usual duel, at least for me. Reminds me of a Tom Clancy book.

    • @stevepreskitt283

      I never served, but I grew up on USAF bases in the 70's and saw a lot of C-5s myself (and saw/walked through a bunch at the base open house events). Agreed that the C-5s looked like they were suspended in the air on a string, and the turbine whine was *very* distinctive.
