The airstrike was the first time the fighter jet had brought down an aircraft since the plane debuted in combat in Syria and Iraq almost a decade ago.

How heroic, that surely paid off all those billions.

    Because nobody else is suicidal enough to dare confront one, ever.

    It had a record of 23:0 against the f-15, which has a record of 104:0 against every other fighter its gone up against.

    The f22 is the air combat version of an aimbot combined with a wall hack.

      it was obviously newer 4 months ago when i posted it but it’s still correct. Afaik even more than i imagined, since that balloon remain not only first but only F22 A to A hit ¯_(ツ)_/¯

      Lemmy is borking lately, 2 of my months old posts got suddenly exhumed as “hot”, and i didn’t even post much at all, so the one guy with hundreds of posts is probably now buried in reddit comments.
