  1. As an Air Force fighter pilot, from what I understand, Kadena Air Force Base will be replacing the old F-15s with brand new state of the art F-15EXs which are more powerful and deadlier and I mean deadlier than ever before! Most of you have no idea what this new F-15 can do, they're not showing you everything and it will blow your mind! The reason for the new F-15s is because of its range, which is far greater than the F-22 and the ability to carry more weapons and it's speed, Mach 2.5 +! In order for the F-22 to have a farther range over the South China Sea, fuel tanks will have to be added and that will compromise it's stealth capabilities! So there would be nothing to gain, when comparing it to the new F-15 Eagle 2 which I am looking forward to! F-22 has no combat record and the F-15 does! 104 kills 0 losses in air-to-air combat! That's why it's called the greatest air superiority fighter in the world! If somebody told you that they were the greatest boxer in the world, but they never Won a fight, you would laugh at them and the F-22 never Won a fight! I'm going with a fighter that's proved itself time and time again and has a record and that's the F-15 Eagle! Thank you Boeing and the Air Force for giving me the opportunity to fly the greatest air superiority fighter in the world! Long live the Eagle! I would also like to thank, Fairchild Republic and the Air Force for giving me the opportunity to fly the greatest ground attack aircraft in the world and that's the A-10 Thunderbolt 2! God bless all of you!

  23.  @johnroof2663  as a fighter pilot John, I rub elbows with a lot of people, including the manufacturers and I can tell you one thing, from everything I've seen of the F-15EX it's deadly and they haven't showed us everything that this thing can do! Boeing aircraft has been in business for a long time and they don't put out anything that's inferior, because their name and reputation is on the line and I know there's a lot of naysayers out there, especially YouTube, and the closest any of them ever got to an airplane, was flying a paper airplane back in 3rd grade! A lot of upgrades have been incorporated into this aircraft, including more powerful engines, more powerful software, and it picked up a little bit more speed, which currently is at Mach 2.5 +! The new F-15 will be around with us for approximately another 50 years, so what does that tell you and at first took flight on July 27th, 1972, that adds up to a grand total of 100 years! Unbelievable and as you're probably aware, there's no other jet fighter in the world that has the combat record of the F-15, which is, 104 kills 0 losses in air-to-air combat! I'm very familiar with the F-22 okay, the Air Force is kicking themselves for not choosing the F-23 Black Widow 2 instead, but getting back to the F-22, as soon as you put fuel tanks on it, ordinance on the wings it is no longer stealthy and it doesn't carry the weapons load that the F-15 does, not even close and it's speed is slower than the current F-15, and it has no combat record and up to this point they're afraid to put it into combat and I've heard different reasons why and I'll leave that to somebody else! Never underestimate your opponent John, and never underestimate the F-15 and a lot of people choose to do that and I think a lot of it's out of jealousy! There's only one air superiority fighter that's the king of the skies and that's the F-15 and may it live forever! I think I forgot to add John, that the F-15 as it is has far superior range than the F-22 and F-35 and the new F-15EX has even greater range then the current F-15 and I'm talking about without fuel tanks! Fighter pilots want range, speed, maneuverability and a good weapons load and the F-15 has all these! Have a nice day John! PS-check out this video on the F-23 and it's called-Black Widow Gray Ghost-it will blow your mind and it's about 1 hour long documentary!

  25.  @BARelement  obviously you're not a fighter pilot, and you just made a fool of yourself to millions of people on YouTube and your F-22 has never been in combat and has no combat record at all no track record, the F-15 has an extensive combat record and it's record speaks for itself and we go up against F-22s all the time at red flag exercises, do you know what red flag exercises are and the F-22 doesn't Fair too well and it depends on who's driving it, not so much the machine! Why don't you read all the responses instead of talking out of your rear end and maybe you'll learn something, and you're very illiterate by the way and I'm very educated, you have to have a lot of schooling and training to be a fighter pilot and you know what's really cool, when I retire from the United States Air Force, I will be getting a real fat and I mean fat, military pension something you'll probably never see! I'm a warrior you know what a warrior is and you're not and never will be, you're what all of us fighter pilots call a loser and we don't like losers, we despise losers, losers go down in flames and if we can make that happen we'll shoot down a loser every time and you're a loser, always remember that, every time you get up in the morning you're going to be reminded of what a loser you are, when you look in the mirror you're going to see a loser, when you open the door to your house, you going to think of yourself as a loser, when you open a car door, you're going to be reminded of what a loser you are, you're never going to get out of your head, it's with you permanently now, you being a loser, always remember that, loser, you always will be a big fat LOSER!
