Simply amazing ...

I have two thoughts upon seeing this video. One can only imagine the Raptor's carbon foot print. It's existence must have the greener citizens of this country screaming. They certainly are not using terms like "astonishing" and "awesome," both of which are appropriate for the strength of the weapon and the skill of the pilot. My second thought is that I doubt that most of the moves shown in this video are useful in a dogfight. Given the speed and accuracy of modern air-to-air weapons, I cannot imagine that the slow barrel roll is a good choice for defensive maneuvers. Still, it's a neat video.
