That moment at 0:12 when I thought a piece of the airframe ripped off 😬😬

Here's the link

Is the cloaking device in the room with us right now?

@farzyness That’s not a “cloaking device”

Oh look, a sonic boom

F-22 ~ Raptor high AoA, high lift, creates extremely low pressure region on the wing surface, the air in this region is unable to retain moisture and the water condenses into vapor

I cannot say this enough times and I hate that I have to say it, but 1) this is *A JOKE* 2) cloaking devices aren't real 3) stealth planes aren't invisible by eye (they just give off a tiny radar signature) 4) this isn't a sonic boom or vapor cone (plane is not going that fast) 5) this is condensed water vapor (a cloud) formed in a low pressure wake because the plane is making a high angle of attack maneuver on a humid day

Uhhhh....

Y'all should read my thread before you explain this to me 😂

And to be clear this thing is nowhere near transonic. It's a low pressure feature due to the high AoA
