Air Force F-22 Raptor Going Supersonic

[Apoptosis]

I love this picture and thought I'd share it with you guys:

GULF OF ALASKA (June 22, 2009) An Air Force F-22 Raptor executes a supersonic flyby over the flight deck of the aircraft carrier USS John C. Stennis (CVN 74). John C. Stennis is participating in Northern Edge 2009, a joint exercise focusing on detecting and tracking units at sea, in the air and on land.

I'm finding it a bit difficult to find a way to say how cool that is.

I read the pentagon wants to cancel the Raptor program!
In a way thats fine with me since I work for the company that builds the F-15Eagle which will probably have more sales over the next few yrs if the Raptor gets cancelled.

WOW
That would suck if they cancel it, it shows we still dominate the air.

All I have to say is if anyone has a hi res shot of that, I want it for my desktop.
