  1. I live just a couple miles away from that base for several years now. When began to replace the F-15s for those Raptors, I was assuming that things would get louder. It is actually much quieter, to the point that I forget that Langley AFB is even there.

  2. By the thumbnail I thought for a sec that the illuminated tops of the hangars in the background were part of the f-22's wings😂😂😂

  3. F-22 is so badass, no other country in the world has anything like it. Not even Russia.

  4. something about these combat flight lines at night. The lights along the runway, the sounds and of course the afterburners!

  5. I was at Langley from 76 to 80. Was in the 27th AMU. F-15A/B back then. I was an electrician. A lot of good memories. John Denver came and flew in a B model, tail number 0086 if memory serves me. It’s on YouTube somewhere. Lots of great TDY’s to Red Flag, Maple Flag in Canada, Holland, Morocco, down to Eglin and Tyndall and some I can’t remember. We had three squadrons of planes then. It was a great time to be in the Air Force back then. The F-15 ruled the sky’s.

  6. Only in America !!! 🇺🇸💪👊🇺🇸

    Sorry for you dreamers losers , but never … N-E-V-E-R in Russia , China or other country around the world 🌎

    Greetings from CDMX !!! 🇮🇹👋🇺🇸

  7. I can tell by the sound when these guys fly over my neighborhood, cant see them of course but that distinctive high roar sound, about 3 miles from my house by way the crow flies.

  8. That Raptor being directed into the hangar at the end…absolutely menacing!! Great footage!!
