U S Air Force Lockheed Martin F 22 Raptors Vertical Take Off at SJU International Airport

On this occasion, a vertical takeoff was captured on video on runway 8 of the Luis Muñoz Marín International Airport in San Juan, P.R.

That would be something if an aircraft that can't take off vertically actually did ,,, Guessing you were referring to the high performance climb out.

[@mattypants]

Nothing compares to actual seeing and feeling and hearing one of these take off. It's insane. Can you imagine being the cessna that has to take off following that demonstration... Lol

[@shanechostetler9997]

That must be pretty awesome knowing every eye is glued to you when you hit the runway!👍 USA #1

[@richardburgett3858]

If you watched a stealth aircraft taking off vertically, that would be the Marine version of the F35!

[@ElGringo503]

Super cool! I am a machinist. I make part components for the turbine engines for these.

Vertical take off?

[@joseortiz6255]

Wepa Charly... Brutal ese video...

[@charlyspotterpr]

Gracias José !😁

Awesome 👍🏽👌🏽👏🏽

[@phbrinsden]

Those are sweet planes.

[@johnmorton6512]

Wow such tremendous acceleration, looks like it was shot out of a canon!

[@dentalnovember]

Vertical climb not vertical takeoff!

[@kokomo9764]

Quite the trick for a non-VTOL plane. I wish these trash sites could be removed.

[@SynthoidSounds]

Now . . . THAT's a takeoff!

[@claudiodelgado9073]

Flies like a UFO 😂

[@chrischeshire6528]

Hear it...the sound of Freedom.

[@jeremyhicks2449]

Let's go USAF!

[@TGG239]

definitely a take off with unrestricted climb. for vertical takeoff it would need to be a rocket, harrier, or the marine version of the F35

[@agonzalez1507]

Wao!!

[@charlyspotterpr]

😀

[@raptoroptical2991]

Not a vertical takeoff in the VTOL sense but all take offs are “vertical”. So are all landings for that matter

[@judicoulter8969]

I am very jealous!

[@paulhowe5113]

Vertical takeoff would be f35 not f22 , ?

[@doylehargrave233]

AMFYOYO!!!!

[@frank33607]

Holy moly. Go USA.

[@papasfixitshop7982]

Too bad there wasn’t an actual vertical take off in this clickbait video

[@slider903]

Why would they send a Raptor to my home Island?

[@welders485]

I know when those or the f15s are at my airport. They are twice as loud as all the other planes.

[@user-dm1jw1gy5q]

Don't fuck with me

[@robinhood9128]

F15 for sure can do a vertical climb. Not sure F22 has the power for full vertical climb

[@nooneyouknowhere6148]

F22 can also. The 15 was the first to do it. 22 can come to a near standstill in air then go verticle.

[@robinhood9128]

@@nooneyouknowhere6148 Sweet!

[@ancienttree-ghost2221]

I thought this was supposed to be a video of a "vertical" take off. It's just a normal takeoff. Misleading title and upsetting.

[@John-qb8vd]

Wah

[@rhoderickcunningham2961]

Yet another video with a stupid and misleading title - vertical take off - my arse!
