Breaking barriers

Capt. Samuel Larson, F-22 Raptor Demonstration Team commander, breaks the sound barrier during the Air Power over Hampton Roads air show at Joint Base Langley-Eustis, Va., May 6, 2023. F-22 engines produce more thrust than any current fighter engine; the combination of sleek aerodynamic design and increased thrust allows the F-22 to cruise at supersonic airspeeds.
