Watching them do fake dogfights over Pogo Mine, Alaska and shooting off countermeasures whenever they had a lock was so fucking cool.

Aside from the APU start, that's pretty weak. That aircraft has one of the most distinctive ground-idle / taxi sounds imaginable, and none of that was captured in the video? Weak sauce.

How do they steer when taxiing? Brakes?

Is the APU a 4 cylinder Mercedes diesel from the 1980's? Cause it reminds me of my '82 240D starting.

They seem like they're the size of an F-15 watching them out of Tyndall. They seem to just float when landing. I guess that's thrust vectoring.

That is NOT the sound of an F-22 engine start. It is only the sound of the F-22's APU starting. You can hear the engines start in this video.  F-22 Raptor Engine Start-Up |

I have a video I took when one taxied past me about 15 feet away then turned so I was staring at her back end.
It was amazing. Not posting it because I'm in it and someone says my name a few times. |
