Just watched it all... good stuff :D

Seems the Raptor is also designed to incorporate 'robotic pilots' at a future date... (slightly worrying)

Yeah, I noticed that too, Phill.....

BUT it might make for a very interesting
Airshow Display! (some day...)

Also, I was sorry they didn't mention
Lightning, Bucc, Hunter, Tornado.........................................................................................

You guys DID get proper credit for engine
development, though.
