p_o_d_2_2 Posted September 30, 2006 Posted September 30, 2006 this may be completely random and have nothing to do with lomac, but ill ask anyway. does the f-22 have an airbrake on it? im pretty sure that the rudders can be used as brakes, but does it have the big flap that pops up on the top of the plane like the f-15 or su-27?
GGTharos Posted September 30, 2006 Posted September 30, 2006 Yes, it does, it's somewhere at the rear of the fuselage - I've seen it but I forget the placement. [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Reminder: SAM = Speed Bump :D I used to play flight sims like you, but then I took a slammer to the knee - Yoda
Shaman Posted September 30, 2006 Posted September 30, 2006 AFIK the "popup" dorsal airbrake was in YF-22, in F-22A they've completely removed it. In serial F-22A rudders are used as airbrakes.

Corsair7662 Posted September 30, 2006 Posted September 30, 2006 lol your right shamandgg. The rudders fold in creating the drag. just look at Janes USAF and any other game featuring the -22. Ace Combat might i think. But anyways, great going POD, you answered your own question :P

pschelchshorn Posted October 1, 2006 Posted October 1, 2006 also on the wings the flaps and ailerons go into opposite deflection to create drag IIRC.

Go instead where there is no path and leave a trail."
Shaman Posted October 1, 2006 Posted October 1, 2006 Here's a little demo video I've made for you guys. It's F-22A airbrake: http://stage6.divx.com/members/12244/videos/1016657 or here: http://www.vvs504.co.uk/videos/F-22_airbrake.divx 51PVO Founding member (DEC2007-) 100KIAP Founding member (DEC2018-) :: Shaman aka [100☭] Shamansky tail# 44 or 444 [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] 100KIAP Regiment Early Warning & Control officer

If a tree falls in a forest and there is nobody around to hear it, would it make a noise at all ?? kind regards, Raven.... [sigpic]http://www.crc-mindreader.de/CRT/images/Birds2011.gif[/sigpic]
