;D Pat the video of the Raptor is fantastic. Makes me wonder who put in the bribes to not build what we need. Jim

I remember an article about the F-22 at Nellis, going against the aggressor unit. The commander of the aggressors said that they would take off and go to the engagement area and get shot down. They would go to the resurrection area and back to the engagement area and get shot down. They flew to the in-flight refueling, uploaded fuel, and flew back to the engagement area. You guessed it, they got shot down. They then flew back to Nellis, never even seeing the F-22s. And we are not making the numbers that would ensure air superiority into the middle of this century.
