been having an F-22 fly over the office all day today with an F-16 escort. I guess they're checking to make sure the damn thing can fly.
That F-22 must be a helluva fighter cause it sure does look pretty up there.
And it sure is a lot bigger than the F-16.
BTW, it's been 30 years and that F-16 is still SEXY!!!!

I'd guess they're testing something, the raptor wouldn't be vunerable to anything other than a hostile jet, so the F-16 is probably there to take pictures of the exterior. Probably because its the only thing that can keep up
