File this under "Fuck Those Commies". Apparently in response to my post featuring the Russian SU30 doing what was advertised as the only plane in the world capable of doing things like climbing vertically and then stalling and recovering, I got a lot of heat. A lot of you emailed and referred me to the link below of our Raptor. Here is proof that the Russian assertion is total bullshit because OUR F-22 Raptor will smoke the fucking thing. Here is the best look from Aviation Week-Military Times where all maneuvers are explained. There are a ton of amateur videos on UTube like the one below that don't explain what you are seeing. Below is the Raptor doing the vertical, then stalling, then pulling out, something the piece I posted claimed we couldn't do. Then there is the charge that the USAF ran the bogus evaluation of the SU 30 in order to gather funding for a new weapon.
