Are you guys sick of these yet?
Technically not a sonic rainboom, but an interesting photograph nonetheless! This particular phenomenon is produced by the low-pressure air over the fuselage of the aircraft sucking it into the loop getting so cold that the water vapor condenses. The plane also happened to be hitting the sun just right, producing a rainbow!
One more picture after the break!

The Air Force just got 20% cooler.
That second one is rad as hell.
Rotated and set as background. Thanks CV!
The second one kicks ass.
perfect shots :D
Motioning for a "sonic Rainboom" tag, plus "no boom" button.
Just kidding, this stuff is awesome!
F-22A Raptor confirmed for best pony.
That is rather kick ass!
Huh, well now we know how Rainbow Dash leaves her rainbow contrail in the sky. Neat!
Damn that looks cool!
OH.MY.GOD.
So in other words, Rainbow Dash is so cool that she can literally cause water vapour to condense behind her when she flies? Neat-o.
Okay, that is just friggin cool...
Applejack is made of dark matter.
Rainbow Dash is an F-22.
Now we just have to prove that Fluttershy is the cutest thing on earth, and my life will be complete.
Wait. You're telling me that Rainbow Dash is able to do something not only better than a fighter jet, but also more often and without even really trying?
Dash kicks major flank.
F-22 now powered by friendship.
One phrase comes to mind whenever I see this...
TASTE THE RAINBOW MOTHAFUCKA!
/r/equesting fan art of ponies flying in fighter jets with Dash flying in formation with them!
@Reid
Already happened. It's buried somewhere deep in the photo section of the Know Your Meme page.
@Torrential Rains
If this doesn't prove it, I don't know what will.

@Fillyshy
Oh well tha- DAWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW
So... Rainbow Dash is a F-22 Raptor reincarnated as a Pony?
I requesting fan art of Rainbow Dash Pulling Vapor out of the air like the F22 is doing in this pictures. I can't believe we haven't seen art like that yet in this fandom.
This is beyond awesome. If I had been thee in person, I would have lost my shit at the sight of that. I mean you all saw what happened to Fluttershy when she saw a Rainboom.
Y'know, the depictions of Rainbow Dash flying aren't so far fetched, allowing that the animation is stylized.
Dash is obviously the fastest most maneuverable thing in the sky, so if you compare to this footage of the real-life wonderbolts:

And some Raptor goodness.

By pony magic standards, Dash seems entirely plausible.

Happened in the show on Boast Busters, when she tried to upstage Trixie.

Cool shots of vapes- vapor made by extreme manuvers of a jet
AWESOME
@Zephire
She's done it in Boast Busters by flying through clouds, so it's canon
Hot damn, real life Sonic Rainboom. Every day this pony shiz gets more and more real. I love it.
Yep, Rainbow Dash'd be a Jet Pilot, if she couldn't Fly.
I don't give a griffon's tailfeathers what it technically is. It's a big thing going really fast with a rainbow behind it. It's a fucking Sonic Rainboom.
And no one will ever convince me to say otherwise.
Starscream, did you learn that trick from Rainbow Dash? In any case, you just got 20% cooler.
Not only is it Not Fanfiction, it's Not Fiction!
Ahh.
The F-22A Raptor.
I love the profile of the bird.
My fave plane from Ace Combat 6.
This makes me
so happy.
Without the Sonic Rainbooms the Air Force would just be another expensive flying club.
It's all part of America's plan to win the next war by making the sonic rainboom the central part of it's shock and awe strategy.
Nothing about my solar eclipse on June 1st?
June first is tomorrow, silly ;)
and OMGFLAGAL AWSHUM
Dang, that's cool. I've always been a big fan of planes and the RCAF but I never knew or saw anything like that. Sic Itur Ad Astra.
