"I've got to imagine that this would be a very bad view for an opposing fighter pilot to see."

Actually enemy fighters would love to see a Raptor dead on their gunsight, in range! How manueverable is it on full afterburner? A slower fighter could probably turn into it and launch a few missiles right into its glowing-hot butt.

Enemy pilots will never get this view of a Raptor, but they's sure love to!
