In the United States, speculations are being made about the reasons for raising F-22 fighters from Pearl Harbor airbase into the air outside of training flights.
In the American press, publications appeared that the American command last Sunday gave an order to take several fifth-generation F-22 fighters into the air from an airfield in the Hawaiian Islands. This is reportedly unrelated to any exercise in the area.
The planes, according to the US press, were raised "in two passes." First, two F-22s took off, less than an hour later, another aircraft. According to some reports, the third aircraft could not have been the F-22, but the KC-135 Stratotanker tanker.
Federal Office of Civil aviation The United States (FAA) provided information that the fighters were lifted from the airbase at its request.
From a local media report on the link to the Pacific Air Force Command:
The Pacific Command of the US Air Force declined to comment on why two F-22 fighters flew over Hawaii for a fairly long period at once:
A statement from FAA spokesman Ian Gregor did not clarify the situation either:
The previous time, two F-22 fighters flew from Pearl Harbor-Hickam base at once outside the exercise in 2017. Then they were ordered to escort a passenger liner en route from Los Angeles to Honolulu. Prior to this, the Los Angeles airport security service established that the Turkish citizen who bought the ticket for that flight had entered a room with limited access. The flight was delayed, then a 25-year-old Turk was put on board (after the proceedings), and the liner began to fly. And on one of the sections of the route, F-22s began to accompany him. The landing took place without incident.
Meanwhile, on one of the American radio stations, the reporter Roy Brown said that the F-22 last Sunday were lifted into the air over Hawaii in connection with "a possible next UFO sighting." The Pentagon did not comment on these statements, which gave rise to speculation and speculation about the reasons for raising fifth generation fighters into the air outside the framework of training flights.
