So when more nations catch on, we will need a good dogfighting plane.

if we count on our longe range kills, when someone tries to invade and we cant kill them, we dont exactly want to be screwed. We want to be able to meet them before they get to our gates.

The perfect fighter is supersonic (without afterburners), completely stealth, low heat, large variety of accurate weapons, highly maneuverable, and can make a kill from low, high, orbital, near and far distances. Now thats a fighter

We have the best plane in the world the only one that can put up against the MiIG's it is the F22 and the new F35 joint strike fighter.

Just to clear things up I dont think that dog fights occur ever min of every day but they do still happen and will happen more often if ever their is a WWIII; which is on the horizon IMOP: this is why plans like the one in the video are being displayed all over the country.

We dont just have air shows to display this tecnology to the American people we have them to display to our enmies as well.

So if they think they have a plane that is the best and we think we have a plane that is the best and we are showing them off to the world whos to say that the 27th fighter wing wont be called into an air to air battle tommorow.

Dog fighting has not and will not end ever even when the piliots are flying the plane from a thousand miles away!
