      Japan thought that the F22 was so perfect for their needs that when the the offer to purchase was rejected, Japan wouldn't accept anything less at the time. So they started their own development.
      As it turns out, it isn't easy. The US learned step-by-step. Making mistakes and learning along the way. China is only now learning that you can't even skip many steps when you steal the tech. If you don't understand it, you can't replicate it.

    Both the SU-57 and the J-20 have been proven to be over-exaggerated in what they are capable of. India, Taiwan, and Japan have already shown the J-20 is neither Stealth nor does it have Super Cruise. The SU-57 has recently been detected by Ukraine, the UK, and the US and proven to lack Stealth and Super Cruise. The J-20 uses the same engines as the SU-57, but is a heavier airplane. The still unknown is the electronics and weapon systems of these competing planes, but considering one of Russia's modern Air to Air missiles was recently fired at a NATO spy plane, going 0 out of 2 in hitting its target, these remaining unknowns are most likely not all that the Russians talked them up to be in their papers.
    The two planes most likely to overtake the F-22 are the US NGAD and the Japanese F-23. The Japanese F-23 has Super Cruise and the same stealth level of radar cross-section. The base model F-22 and F-23 competed for the US contract back in the 90s, with a manufacturing failure being the reason why the F-22 was chosen over the F-23, as the F-23 had beaten the F-22 in almost all measurables in the head-to-head. It was faster, more maneuverable, could go further, just as stealthy, held more, and had capabilities to upgrade to modern electronics. Japan is the US's most favored ally, and shares in much of the most costly research in areas like radar, sonar, missile defense, and electronics. So they will have available to them the capability to modernize the F-23 to levels as good as the F-35, if not better. Japan was offered the F-35 program to fill its needed role in Air Defense, but they passed and requested the F-23 instead, which says a lot about what capabilities the F-23 in their version will have.
    Where the US is so far ahead of everyone is in the manufacturing. The tolerance levels in the different parts to achieve what the US produces is extreme and Russia, China, and Europe haven't yet shown to be able to mass produce products with such extremely tight requirements using the most advanced materials and alloys.

    The craziest thing to me is that the F-35 is the 2nd best fighter/multirole aircraft on the planet. And we sell them to several countries that are friends. The F-22 is old by comparison and still better in almost every way, and we can't sell them as a matter of National Security. The old horse is better than the new one in every way...

    • @jdanon203

      The F-22 is not better than the F-35 "in every way." The F-35 is way better in tech and it's not even close which is what you'd expect when comparing a 1980s plane and one from the 2010s given how much technology advanced in that time frame.

    • @robertevans2450
      @robertevans2450 3 месяца назад +3

      Japan's F-23 is better than the F-35, and while the final build isn't being released, the base model F-22 was outperformed by the base model F-23, the reason the F-22 won the contract was some parts of the F-23 weren't ready on test date. A failure in manufacturing is why we have the F-22 and not the F-23...US gave the go-ahead for Japan to modernize and produce the F-23. Japan hasn't released much info on their version of the F-23, but it will fly slightly faster, including a supercruise mode, be slightly more aerobatic, and carry more than the base model F-22. If Japan can get F-35-level electronics into its F-23, it may end up taking the crown for the best fighter.

    The US Air Forces mothball fleet is kept at Davis - Monthan Air Force base outside of Tuson, Arizona. Retired planes are kept there and often used to scavenge parts from. As the F-16 was going into production, an agreement between General Dynamics and the Air Force,
    allowed the landing gear from mothballed B-48s to be scavenged to cut cost over runs. This decreased production cost significantly allowing the F-16 to actually not only come in under budget, but to beat production deadlines.

So we are usually at least 15 years ahead of where we say we are. Alot of people frequently don't understand why our government would divulge information, but the reason is simple--they're lying. We are always more advanced than we ever really admit. Love you guys, keep on trucking.

      Exactly, the US government or Military has things that make the F-22 look like a WWI biplane. There are many bases like Area 51. The number 51 stands for something and wasn't just pulled out of a hat or come from some number on a map like they want you to believe. The public just found out about that one. I would put money on something or several somethings in the middle of Alaska. Very low population and millions of square miles of open airspace. I think there is something in Utah as well. I see you did mention 15 years (minimally). It's actually quite a bit more than that. More like a half a century and more. You really don't think what everybody is seeing flying around in our skies comes from another world do you? The distances in space are way to great for travelers from somewhere else to come here. Even with the technology to reach the speed of light, it would still take to long. No what people all over the world are seeing in our skies comes from here and they come from the good old red, white and blue.

    you should check out a video about piloting the F-22 - the computers onboard do most of the flying - the pilot inputs the maneuver he wants to perform, and the onboard computers calculate best flight control positions to perform the maneuver. Very ahead of its time in its time (when I was working on F-16 avionics in the US Air Force), and still very powerful weapons package. Also there is videos out there of Davis Monthan Air Force Base - where jets go to die -- also known as the boneyard. That is where most go when retired.

    while the first production F-22 was sold to the USAF around 2005, the design was worked on from the late 1980s and into the 1990s, and design and specifications were concluded before 2001. The F-22 has a top speed in excess of mach 2.1 , and can go over mach 1.7 without afterburners. It's stealth is such that most if not all RADAR scans yield a cross section from the F-22 with the size of about a bumblebee or a marble. The F-22's RADAR package when designed ... they forgot to put a budget on that part, so it had, for years, a radar so powerful that enemy electronics and / or radar equipment would be totally jammed by the F-22 running its radar at maximum power. Minor drawbacks: it tends to run out of missiles before running out of fuel while needing to return to base... but it can refuel in midair. The reason Lockheed martin and the USA military chose to make a plane like the F-35 is because they couldn't sell the F-22 to any country , no matter what. The NGAD would have to be tons better than the F-22 before they consider changing their minds on the rules about selling the F-22 to other countries. F-35 has certain abilities: newer avionics, newer communications, maneuverability tech like the ability to hover/ etc, can hold more and newer missiles by default? and that's about all. Setbacks: F-35 has a lower maximum altitude, and a top speed of about mach 1.5, while having a radar cross section that's about 10 times as large as the F-22.

      Area 51 is to well known and blown out. There are many more places like that, that nobody knows about. I have a problem with alien tech because if you know anything about space, you know that the distances between stars is way to great. Even with the tech to reach light speed, the distances are still huge. I know we have something but it doesn't come from somewhere else. At least that is the way I look at it. Our governments not wanting to let the people know that aliens really do exist would be very likely. But the aliens agreeing to hide themselves from us I don't think so. To travel sooooooooooooooo far for pretty much nothing, that is a pill way to big to swallow. Another thing, as destructive as the human race is, do you think that aliens would help any of us with any kind of military tech that would help us destroy each other faster? Another very big pill to swallow.

It’s the same base where we are training Ukrainian pilots on the F16. (Which I don’t get why they didn’t send them to Luke airforce base here in Glendale, it’s the largest f16/f35 training base for the United States) since they’re illegal to sell to our allies.
    9:57 the Russian SU57 barely exist, there’s like 12 of them exist, and Ukraine has destroyed one already. The Russians are trying to say the SU57 would beat the f35 and F22 hence the 57, it’s the 35 and 22 added up together.

    I never flew in the military but I have many colleagues that have. In this case, “retirement” means either being scrapped or being sent to storage to eventually be in museums and after an extremely long time they’ll be gutted for any weapons equipment and end up in private hands

      Yeah the f -22 is n won't be sold to other countries even after retirement from what I have heard from my buddy in the Air Force that is a pilot of the b1b lancer bomber

    The first retired jets will be stored at "the boneyard" and picked apart for spare parts as needed.
    Once they are all retired they'll all be destroyed to keep secrets of its design and material technologies from becoming available to enemy nations.
    An example of this is the F14.
    Because Iran has F14's all the old F14's at the boneyard have been destroyed so no parts that Iran might need can be stolen and sold to them.
    Even the examples of F14's that are displayed in museums have had critical parts damaged in such a way they couldn't be used as spare parts.

    We have no problem donating/selling our f-16's and f-35's. We are just not allowed to do such with the f-22 because of it's stealth technology.

    Think of this, when the Sr-71 came out, in the 1960s, it was way beyond anyone else... and when it was introduced to the public it was because we had something ( still undisclosed ) that was better and more capable.
    The United States have been 1 or 2 steps beyond everyone else, we do use our equipment long enough till it becomes out dated, then we put them in reserve units. The F-35 is what is 'seen' Remember we've been using Space fighters for over 20 years, have anyone seen them?
    It's what you don't see is what to look for. Think about it, the Sr-71 was flying for 20 years before anyone knew of it.
    I enjoy your program, im a military historian... have Peace and tranquility.

    When old military equipment is retired, it can be sold, donated, or scrapped. I highly doubt they would donate or sell the F-22Raptor to a foreign country. The F-22 Raptor was never designed to be exported probably for this reason: it’s a lot of firepower to give to a potential future enemy, but hey, I could be wrong. My guess is the plan was to scrap them, which is a waste, and is probably why Congress voted no on that.

    Great reaction!! The F-22 was picked in a "fly-off" with the YF-23. The YF-23 Black Widow/Grey Ghost was the better plane. Politics (grrr) Please react to this video: "The Only Plane That Could Beat The F-22 Raptor"

  • @dominique9934

    No, they would not let other countries have the F22. They go to an aircraft boneyard. Certain aircraft would never go to other countries. Only joint aircraft go to other countries like the F35, F15, F16. no stealth aircraft.

    • @toxicgracie3772

      F-35 is stealth. Very capable stealth too. But yes, it's the only stealth aircraft we sell to other nations

  • @Ecrocken

    Personally, I don't think the Chinese or Russian "stealth" aircraft are anywhere close to matching the Raptor. I'm a firm believer that the US military wants us to think these two countries are a threat in order to justify what is spent on the US military. Don't take that wrong. I feel that the US should continue to spend the amount of money on its military as it does, I just believe the military feels they need to trick us into it.
    It's funny to me that the aircraft is being retired but sales are still forbidden. It kinda proves to me that they're not as bad as the military wants us to believe.

    • @toxicgracie3772
      @toxicgracie3772 3 месяца назад +1

      They're not even close. If they were, Russia would've taken over Ukraine. China hasn't seen war in ages so they don't have anything other than math to go off of. America has the most experience by-far, spends the most by-far and is the leader in military advancements that other countries want to copy 😂

    It seems we are on the verge of the "Star Wars" era.
    With 147 military satellites, (that we know of), spending billions on unimaginable technology, the ability to watch our adversaries in real time from space, stealth abilities unmatched, and the best trained pilots in the world, our deterrents are doing what they were designed to do - prevent war if possible, or win any conflict, anywhere, anytime, with overwhelming tech and firepower.
    May the Air Force be with you.

    Yup, they would be held in storage. There are still too many advanced features of the F22 to sell them to another country, even as great of an ally as the UK or Germany.
