They are huge and snow covered. The place is unreal.

    This is what makes America the best country. When Americans get their shit together build some of humanitys most modern marvels.
    This F-22 raptor, absurdly much more advanced than anything the rest of the countrys can produce, was even accidentally too advanced for even the highly trained pilots could handle for a little while, is technology developed and built 30 years ago.
    Able to build tech that's decades more advanced than the rest of the world combined.

    F-22 is the best but there are like 1000 F-15s and less than 200 raptors

      Cobalt I hope the new president would make new fighters or something to replace the successful but aging F-15s and F-16s

      Not really.... For fighters newest is the F-35 followed by the F-22 in the USAF. F-22 first flew in I think the early 90's as the YF-22.
