If you wach closely in full screen mode, you can see the differential
flipper action: there is some busy computer helping the pilot.

It's an impressive airplane, but it makes one wonder if there's a
likely mission that would require an airplane with this agility. Are
close encounters with the bad guys likely, or do missiles do the deed
from long range?
