Im sorry but I just couldn't figure out where to post this question. Anyway, the F-22 uses a combo of its rudders (out), flaps (down) and ailerons (up) as airbrakes. Now does that not hinder the pilots control over the bird while deploying them?
The F-22 has no dedicated speed brake surfaces, but uses the standard flight control surfaces for the speed brake function. In the CRUISE configuration, the ailerons deflect up, flaperons down, and rudders deflect out or the "barn door" mode. This is very effective in slowing the aircraft. In comparison, the F-22 and F-15 in side-by-side formation both deployed their speed brakes and the F-15 wound up in front.
Just wondering, the newly acquired "Aircraft carrier killer" missile, the CM-400 AKG, has a reported range of between 100-250 KMs.
Since this weapon is to be launched from the JF-17, does the aircraft has a radar which can detect and lock it's target at this distance. ?? Thanks.
The F-5s has a funny story behind it.
Flt Lt Naeem took off and after about 2 min we see the OC flying running towards the Flight ops.
"So what happend Sir" "Tell that ediot to land the dame plane it does not have an ejection system installed in it we just found out they just told us a few min ago". so actualy flytime of F-5 over a PAF base is 4 min. appox.
