Руски ловци Су-30СМ и Су-35 невидљиви за авионе пете генерације F-22 Raptor?
Iz teksta: Citat:Амерички ловац пете генерације F-22 Raptor показао се као неспособан у мисијама праћења руских авиона Су-30СМ и Су-35 на небу Сирије. Амерички ловац нема адекватну опрему за идентификацију летелица (свој/туђи) у ноћним условима, не ради му тактички комуникациони систем Link 16, као ни обележавач циља на визиру пилотске кациге
Citat:F-22 saves fuel by flying faster
The U.S. Air Force found out that the F-22 can save fuel by flying faster on ferry flights during an experiment carried out on Aug. 13.
Two groups of F-22s have completed their training at Joint Base Elmendorf-Richardson, Alaska and were flying back home to Joint Base Pearl Harbor-Hickam, Hawaii. They were accompanied by a pair of KC-10s.
The 618th Air Operations Center had predicted back in 2014 that flying faster could save total fuel consumption and flight hours and thus the two groups were assigned to test out the theory.
At the end of the five-hour flight, the group that flew faster “was able to cut about ten percent off the total flight time and six percent of the fuel required for this type of aircraft re-deployment.”

Damaged F-22 makes comeback after six-year repair job Citat:A Lockheed Martin F-22 grounded since a trainee pilot’s error led to a crash landing in May 2012 could be ready to return to service next March after a nearly six-year-long repair job, according to a new US Air force document.
The process to return the aircraft, serial number 4037, to service condition offers a glimpse into the effort the USAF will undertake to keep as many of the limited number of F-22s flying rather than writing them off after extensive damages.

Moskva: Američki F-22 omeli napad naših "suhoja" na ID
Moskva -- Rusko Ministarstvo odbrane optužilo je SAD da njihovi borbeni avioni ometaju ruske u operacijama protiv Islamske države.Sa druge strane "Njujork tajms" je objavio da Pentagon optužuje ruske avione da lete previše blizu njihovim u vazdušnom prostoru iznad Sirije.
"U vazduhu iznad zapadne obale reke Eufrat 23. novembra, američki borbeni avioni F-22 omeli su dva aktivna ruska napadača Suhoj-24 u ispunjavanju njihovog borbenog zadatka da unište komandni centar Islamske države u blizini Majadina", rekao je portparol ruskog Ministarstva odbrane Igor Konašenkov.
On je, kako prenosi Tass, dodao da su "Avioni F-22 ispalili lažne mete" i da su "konstantno izvodili manevre kako bi simulirali borbu u vazduhu".
"Američka strana povodom ovog i mnogih drugih incidenata u vazduhu iznad Sirije nije odgovorila na ruske komande iz baze Hmejmim (u Siriji)", naglasio je Konašenkov.
Kako prenosi ruska agencija, "Njujork tajms" je, pozivajući se na Pentagon, izvestio da su "ruski borbeni avioni leteli opasno blizu američkih ratnih aviona u istočnoj Siriji".
Konašenkov je danas naglasio i da je "većina bliskih susreta ruskih i američkih vazdušnih snaga u oblasti Eufrata izazvana američkim pokušajima ometanja uništenja terorista ID."
"Za razliku od ruskih snaga vazdušne odbrane, međunarodna koalicija na čelu sa SAD deluje nezakonito u Siriji", rekao je Konašenkov.
