F-22 Raptor, is such a treat to watch, they say that it only demonstrate 20% of its flying and maneuverability during the show, but the way that jet just float in mid air until it reaches a angle of Attack is just mind blowing to watch.

Also talking to demo team of F-22, and F-16's the pilots and maintenance crew is very humble, and easy to talk to.

Absolutely incredible The F-22 is decades old, yet still the number one air superiority fighter on the planet.

What does that tell you? What does the US have cooking in the background that has yet to be released.

F-16's, beautiful Fighter Jets... seeing them up close is definitely worth every penny/dollar and sun burn i experienced.

F-22's are just amazing, and I am no technical person, but looks are just beyond sexy.

That's to protect it from the sun/heat. The F-16's in your pictures are also covered.

I thought it was to avoid any pics from the inside of the plane, but still a treat to watch F-22 Fly, I am big fan of F-16 and it looks beautiful when fly, but F-22 dwarfs F-16's when it comes to Flight display.
