To the OP - this is what you saw, likely, the same exact aircraft


That's it. Took me by surprise. Hope to see more of it and the f35's. F35's seemingly get shat on, but after seeing them demo'd at a few air shows, I really like it.

Isn't the f15ex replacing the f22? I watched a YouTube video on it and it's impressive. I see no reason for the f22 if the f15 air frame can equal or top it in most phases. Working on an f15 has to be way cheaper than the f22, and I LOVE the f22.

There’s 8 of them on the base here in Belle Chasse right now. The air show is in a couple of weeks. They haven’t released the itinerary for the show yet, but I’d imagine they’re gonna have a demo team. Come check it out! Always a good time

That’s above my pay grade, but I don’t think so. From what I understand, the E models are the ones that are being pushed now, but I’m not 100% certain. The 22s and 35s are badass, but the F-15 is also a very capable airframe. Fun to watch them fly, I love it

From what I have read, the NGAD, is the F22 replacement, expected to be in service by 2030.
