thefightercommunity Posted August 7, 2008 Posted August 7, 2008 This video includes a small sample of the footage taken during the first European visit ever of the F-22 Raptor. I suppose you know the story, but just in case: Three F-22s from the 1st Fighter Wing based at Langley (Virginia), arrived to RAF Fairford on Tuesday July 8th in order of taking part in RIAT and Farrnborough Airshows (in the latter just on Monday the 14th). Major Max Moga, the F-22 Demo Pilot, was the man who flew this incredible machine, showing the agility and power of the firt 5th Generation Fighter. Enjoy the video! http://www.thefightercommunity.com/videos/video_F22_UK.htm Alejandro Quote

+JediMaster Posted August 11, 2008 Posted August 11, 2008 The NATF and A-12 were both cancelled and the USN got the F/A-18E/F instead. Enjoy!! Quote
