The Lockheed-Martin F-22 Raptor is one of the world’s most incredible aircraft.

The fighter jet, first released in 1997, is capable of flying at speeds of up to 1,500mph.

It is those speeds that allow it to activate an incredible natural phenomenon.

Flying an F-22 through an area of high humidity produces bursts of condensation around the jet.

And in the video above, you can see the F-22 Raptor activating its cloaking device as it breaks the sound barrier.
