Is The S-37 Fighter Up There With The F-22 ?!?!

When do you think the peak of the US power is then?

Well first the UK is not "THE" king of the south it is a apart of the king of the south with the US ever since since, and according to the bible THE king of the south or the US,Britain dual world power there power peak stays as the most powerful nations in the world until God decides its time to take over,

It took me forever to understand what all this king of south and north thing was but i will try to explain it, US has freedom of religion therefore people in the US have a way to worship and find God since God has given us all the Choice of whether to serve him or not, but in many other countries people dont have this chance to make a decision Cause the Communists governemtn dont allow wide spread religion, Germany from i think 1919-1942 was considered the king of the north until Russia US and Europe put an end to the German rule, Hitler did not want religion and in the bible it says that those who are in control of men and oppose me "God" will fall,

Also Communists Bloc russia allowed some forms of worship it still did not allow Christianity to be widespread, the bible foretold the fall of this

Right now we do not know who the king of the North is, but the bible says that when that king rises he will only have power for a short time and that we will go forth to annihilate many but will come to his own destruction,

China is a communists country and maybe China is the King of the North or maybe the king of the north will be some other country in the future, so when people say that china could beat the US it goes against what the Bible foretells, like i said the bible refers to the king of the south Being a mighty ruling power until God steps in, so to me that means that the US does not get beat by anyone here on earth.

Of course if you dont believe in God and the bible you have no reason to believe this.

I know I know i sound like one of those guys on TV who yells into the mic and says "Time is Now Find Christ before its to late" but im just stating what the bible says and how things have unfolded in the past just like the Bible fortold

How do you know for sure that is supposed to take place around now? why not 500 years from now?

That is correct i dont know and no man knows when this will take place in the bible it says that only I "God" know the time of this event,

so you are right it could happen now or it could happen 500 yrs from now but like the bible says when that event does happen the king of the south will still be in power until I "God" steps in.

Hi....please dont take this as a who would win against the F-22 question but I want to know, would the F-22 know if it had been fired at by say another stealth craft?

Would it know a missile was flying?

I do not know but its only a question of when there will be a plane which is better than the f22 or at least a weapon which can shoot it down at range.

well im probably wrong on this but i think the F-22 has something called the EWS Early Warning System or something like that but im not sure so dont quote me on it

Yeah but sicne the raptor can fire a missile without the other jet knowing, wouldnt that work both ways in a stealth fight?

The Raptor can fire a missile from nearly 200miles that is why the other guy doesn't know he is being fired upon their radar does not have that kind of range. By the time his radar has picked up the missile the F-22 has fired more missile, and he would still have award time figuring out where the missiles are coming from, because of the Raptors stealth attributes.

The AN/APG-77 radar is an active-element, electronically scanned (that is, it does not move) array that features a separate transmitter and receiver for each of the antenna's several thousand, finger-sized radiating elements. Most of the mechanical parts common to other radars have been eliminated, thus making the radar more reliable. This type of antenna, which is integrated both physically and electromagnetically with the airframe, provides the frequency agility, low radar cross-section, and wide bandwidth necessary to support the F-22's air dominance mission. The radar is key to the F-22's integrated avionics and sensor capabilities. It will provide pilots with detailed information about multiple threats before the adversary's radar ever detects the F-22.

]The APG-77 radar offers significant advantages over previous combat radars. Among its most attractive benefits is the integration of agile beam steering. This feature allows a single APG-77 radar to carry out multiple functions, such as searching, tracking, and engaging targets simultaneously. Agile beam steering also enables the radar to concurrently search multiple portions of airspace, while allowing continued tracking of priority targets.

The AN/APG-77 radar is capable of performing an active radar search on RWR/ESM equipped fighter aircraft without the target knowing he is being illuminated.

Westy I know this...I am asking if say a raptor went up against another raptor **never will happen but I really need to know** would they be able to detect each others missiles?

I may be being overly pedantic here or even missing the point but if the Rator fires a missile from nearly 200 miles away wont it just dive into the ground like a dart as there is no missile in service with that sort of range?

Having fired off all his missiles the other fighter could then close in and shoot him down with his gun! I am of course being facetious now so don't get feisty

The engagement described by Westy though does seem to assume no AWACS capability on the part of the opponent.

Devilwasp I don't know what would happen if the Raptor went up against itself, as its a theoretical question you would have to ask the developers of the project to find out.

And I meant to say that the Raptor can track targets from about 200 miles away, but the range of the AIM-120 the F-22 carries has a maximum rage of about 35-45 miles. Too bad the AIM-155 Advanced Air-to-Air Missile (AAAM) was cancelled the F-22 might have been suited with it.

So the raptor pilot can glare at the enemy for say the next 165 miles?

I think its more about situational awareness and sending information to other fighters in the are before the engagement occurs, and like I said before too bad the AIM-155 got cancelled if the F-22 had that missile it would be able to fire form about 100-115 miles away.
And Devil that 160 miles will go by in 7.8 minutes going 1.6 mach which is the Raptors super cruise speed.

Thats still 7.8 minutes of glareing...I think that could take down almost anything....

Better having 7.8 minutes of glaring than being surprised and having a few seconds to react.

Yeah but see we should have hockey goal keepers in the planes since they are the fastest in the world, dont even need a second to react.

So that's your response to my post, tst tst sad. Wait do they even have hockey in England?

I dont really care about sitting for 7.8 minutes of glareing.
In britain we have several versions of hockey.

Well its not glaring per se I would imagine in the 7.8 minutes the pilot is checking several systems and on alert about what the enemy fighter is doing. Situations can change in a second so you have to more than just glare.
And what the difference between me using England or Britain?
