Thank you.
An interesting film promoting the F-22, F-35 and Comanche. It had to be made after the X-35B flew (2000) and before the Comanche was cancelled (2004) - so about 13 years ago. Still seems up to date in much of the commentary and puff.

They didn't want to tell us that the Typhoon can super cruise as well, or that the Comanche was cancelled in 2004 either. ;)
Americans just love to make their equipment sound like something it's not. Fighter aircraft have been using supercruise long before the Raptor hit the drawing board, and they will be using it long after it has retired from operational service. The first aircraft that was capable of Supercruise was the Lightning!
