I guess no one has seen the US's F22 fighter jet yet. Thats impressive........you have to see it to shoot it....that the key......you can't find it when it flying so how can you shoot at it.

It would be a very interesting dog fight! Awesome plane - but, the F22 CAN make those maneuvers - and supercruise @ mach speeds to boot. From Langly AFB's airshow:
Keep in mind that the US is far more restrictive with public demonstrations of aircraft capabilities, thanks to our wonderfully litigious society, environmental concerns, noise ordinances, fuel concerns, FAA approvals, and the like. Those who had access to the R2508 ranges during the test phase of he F22 project have a bit of insight into the upper envelope capabilities of the F22, but not its ceiling.

Ah yes... the Lockheed Martin/Boeing F-22 Raptor. not bad... I guess since the SU-30 blowing all that smoke made it look more impressive than it really was.
