An F-22 Raptor performs manuevering, stopping and going on low runway
conditions Nov. 7 at Eielson Air Force Base, Alaska. The F-22 underwent
cold-weather testing on its breaking system, with emphasis on its
ability to maneuver, stop and go on slippery surfaces. The aircraft was
tested by the 411th Flight Test Squadron during a three-week deployment
on incrementally low-level runway condition reading surfaces, with
temperatures ranging between 37 to -13 degrees. The F-22 is from
Edwards AFB, Calif. (U.S. Air Force photo/Kevin Roberston)
