Appears to have been a left engine flameout when the pilot throttled up to take off. By the time he realized the engine was dead, he had already been airborne for a few seconds and raised the gear.
I gotta believe that’s F22 can fly on one engine. Sounds like the pilot is a retard and just pulled the gear early.

They likely can, but losing it on takeoff probably didn't give the pilot time to get the other engine lined out for flight.
