Air Force Airman 1st Class Devonte Prescott, 1st Maintenance Squadron, 27th Aircraft Maintenance Unit crew chief, inspects the hydraulics of an F-22 Raptor during ATLANTIC TRIDENT 17 at Joint Base Langley-Eustis, Va., April 18, 2017. The combination of sleek aerodynamic design and increased thrust allows the F-22 to cruise at supersonic airspeeds (greater than Mach) without using afterburners -- a characteristic known as supercruise.
