what is top mach speed of F22 raptor?
544549
"Former Lockheed Raptor chief test pilot Paul Metz says the Raptor has a fixed inlet. Paul Metz has also stated that the F-22 has a top speed greater than 1600 mph (Mach 2.42) and its climb rate is faster than the F-15 Eagle."\n\nHmmm, interesting.  He says that the top speed is greater than Mach 2.42.  I wonder how much greater...

top speed depends on the sign on the road you are driving on,most of them are 65 mph. some are 35. unless local law enforcement is not present.

I have the July '03 issue of HOT ROD magazine, the main article is 'The World's Fastest Cars' & list different classes:production, Nascar, NHRA etc. This is where I am getting my information; you can order 'back issues' from the HOT ROD website...\nFUNNY CAR - 326.87 mph; John Force holds best e.t. @ 4.731\nDriver-Gary Densham\nO/S-Team Castrol/Auto Club of Southern California Ford\n    Mustang\nWhere-Pomona\nWhen-2002 season opener\nTOP FUEL - 332.75 mph @ 4.537 e.t.\nDriver-Larry Dixon

I don't remember very well I but I red somwhere about a F1 car beating a F16 fighter on a 2km distance.\n\nLet's take an example: \nRoughly a 747 weight about 400tons and has 4 engines of 25tones of thrust. This would lead to a maximum acceleration of 0.25Gs at take off. I'm sure a fast car can do better than that

If you mean a V-2 rocket then:\n\nDimensions:\n\nLength   14.036 m\nLength of the nose  2.285 m\nLength of the vanes 3.935 m\n\nSection of the fuselage  1.650 m\nSection of the vanes 3.555 m\n\nmore values (weight, speed) are included in the first link

Well, the speed of sound (Mach 1) varies between 660 mph and 800 mph, depending on altitude (see the attached chart). High subsonic would be from about Mach 0.85 to Mach 1.

Obviously the maximum airspeed is a function of thrust and drag.  Consider that a missile is a aerodynamic body with high thrust and low drag.  What determines the maximum speed of the missile?  \n\nDrag can be dissected into many parts.  Optimizing the shape of the body requires that you pick a environ to operate in, but the basic wedge rocket planes were pretty good (X15).  If you are only asking about jet aircraft, then the question is efficiency at what speed.  Subsonic or supersonic?  Part of the drag is due to turbulent structures in the wake of the body.  These can change for different velocity regimes, depending on the aircraft's shape.\n\nIf you are asking about low speed regimes, minimizing drag can be achieved by making all components of the aircraft as narrow as possible, and ensuring all surfaces remain laminar.  In other words, reduce frontal area and reduce turbulence.  Of course you still are required to produce lift.  Hence the tendency for long thin tapered wings.  Low frontal area, low drag.\n\nMost of these criteria can only be exploited as far as the materials technology will allow.  The rocket plane will burn up at speed in the lower atmosphere.  The longest, thinnest wing will snap.  Various other issues.  So you could say the real limit of airspeed is materials technology.  Hope this helps!

The F-16 is an old and somewhat generic piece of crap.  The Mig 29 Foxbat is perhaps the second greatest aerial fighter (after the Raptor) ever built.

F-35 Lightning II.  The F-35s will be the first successful Joint Strike Fighter in the United States military.  The F-22 Raptor was suppose to be the first, but because of difficulties that arose while trying to convert some of the aircraft's systems to be used with the Navy the F-22 was left for the Air Force.  The F-35 has solved those problems and will now be able to be used by the Air Force, Navy, and Marines.  The improved stealth technology that is used with the F-35 makes it virtually invisible even while firing munitions.  The new design allows for the F-35 to open the munitions bay doors, lock on a target, fire the munitions, and close the doors again, all in a matter of seconds.  The F-35 has vertical thrusters, and an arresting hook making it possible to land on aircraft carriers.  The improved thrust vectoring makes the F-35 literally turn on a dime.  This fighter will also use Super Cruise, giving it the ability to exceed Mach 1 without using afterburners, thus saving on the fuel the aircraft uses.  It will be capable of using a very wide variety of air-to-air and air-to-ground weapons, making this the most capable fighter in the United States military arsenal.

A Honeywell AGT-1500 gas turbine. It provides 1,500 horsepower and can move the 68 ton Abrams from 0-20mph in seven seconds. With the speed governor installed, it can reach a top speed of 45mph on flat terrain, and about 30mph over rough terrain. The Abrams carries 502 gallons of JP8 jet fuel, which gives the tank a range of about 265 miles on flat ground.

Values of the Speed of Sound:\n\nOne of the most common questions we receive is fow fast is the speed of sound, and as was pointed out earlier, there is no single value to quote. The speed of sound, also known as Mach 1, changes throughout the atmosphere based on the temperature at any given altitude. Probably the most important value to remember, however, is the speed of sound at sea level. Based on the standard atmospheric model, this value has been defined to be\n\n    * 1,116.4 ft/s\n    * 340.3 m/s\n    * 761.2 mph\n    * 1,225.1 km/h\n    * 661.5 knots\n\nIf you were to reach Mach 1, or "break the sound barrier," at sea level, the above speed is how fast you would have to travel in order to do so.

Obviously, the 700 would be quicker. I can't give you exact numbers tho. I can tell you that 60mph on a quad feels like 120mph, and they are not designed to be ridden that fast.

The power comparison is about 8,000 hp(top fuel) to about 60,000hp(boeing) The fuel consumption comparison is apples to oranges. The boeing uses heavy jet propellant basically diesel fuel while the top fuel uses alchohol and nitro methane. it would be like comparing drinking water versus eggnog... What's the point?

OK here goes\n\nFaster = higher top speed \nQuicker = accelerates faster\n\nFor the street quicker is much more important.\n\nTop speed is not influenced by weight, in fact more weight makes it easier to handle at high speed. All that influences top speed is drag and horsepower.\n\nAcceleration is influenced by the  power to weight ratio, traction, gearing, and a bit by drag.\n\nRsx type-s has a top speed of 124 and 1/4 mile of 15.16/93.24\n\nAccord V6 I was unable to find the info for either but I think it would be both faster and quicker.

I think the Western Digital Raptor line is currently the fastest SATA 3.0 hard drive.  It's 10,000rpm, but I can't say how it compares to SCII drives.\n\nhttp://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16822136034
