An Air Force F-22-A Raptor flies through the air as condensation clouds form around the aircraft during the 42nd Naval Base Ventura County Air Show at Point Mugu, Sunday, April 1, 2007, near Ventura, Calif. The aircraft is not flying supersonic.

(Apparently using its "cloaking device".)

#3 The F-15 has a perfect unbeaten record in air-to-air combat. I saw something on the History Channel where an F-22 pilot was quoted as saying that flying a '22 against '15s is "like clubbing baby seals." The F-22 must be one baaaad airplane!
