A F-22 Raptor is surrounded by a vapor cone above Scott Air Force Base, Illinois, May 14, 2023. A vapor cone is a phenomenon that occurs when the air around an object moves at subsonic speeds while drops of moisture amass on the object creating a drop in pressure until a vapor cone or “shock collar” can be visibly seen.
