Another story from my Dad about the F22
Feb. 2nd, 2006 03:05 pmHe was also telling me they also tested the F-22 to see how much better it was then the F-15. Now mind you the F-15 is about one of the most aggresive planes in the air currently. They're are very few planes that anyone in the world has that give the F-15 much of a fight.
So they did whats called a 1V4 test which is one F-22 versus 4 F-15s. Not only did the F-22 win in two minutes, it killed 3 of the F-15s in 15 seconds before they even knew what hit them and then had to chase the other one down as it was running away. Guess the weapons system can independently track and lock onto as many targets as it has missles, fire them off and the missles are intelligent enough to take care of the rest.
So they then pitted the F-22 in a 2V16. Now do note these are not your everyday F-15 pilots but test pilots who more then likely have fought in Iraq and have thousands of flight hours. Well one of the F-22's had some problem and had to ground abort before it even took off and since they already had the test setup they went ahead with it anyway.
Now the test was 1V16 and they thought surely the F-22 is going to get creamed with the sheer number of enemy aircraft. Guess who won? Yep the F-22 in 14 minutes. My dad said it was almost comical cause the F-22 just out manuvered and took out multiple planes at a time and you could hear the F-15 pilots screaming at each other in how bad they were getting their ass handed to them by one plane.
