And that, ladies and gentlemen, is the true Stealth technology. Is it an airplane? Is it a bird? Is it a cloud? Is it Super-Man? No!....ehh, it's the first one, it's a plane indeed.

What is impressive to me is the loading. In normal aircraft, such as the F-18's you see at airshows, this vapor only forms on the wings of the aircraft.

What is Unique about this picture is that the vapor covers the entire body, which clearly shows that the 'entire' aircraft is part of the loading, so the entire aircraft is actually acting as one super giant wing!

This begins to increase my speculation about what we really know about this plane?? If you can generate massive loading by being a single wing in the air like this, you can only imagine what this aircraft's low speed manuverability must be like!!??? An F-16 or any other fighter flying won't even come close! This F-22 can pull serious G at extremely low speed!!! Guaranteed! Put this plane at less than 200 knots and I bet you can still pull a high G loading!

Thats what happens on long flights when you are a smoker and you have to vent every so often!



Actually it's coming to the point that I don't trust any jpeg or video I see anymore.
