The F22 test program from EDW has been using tactical callsigns (random 4-5 letter words). I am not going to divulge specific sources however I can give you hints for the public means of matching it to an F22. 1: The cockpit sound, the medium pitched hiss in the recordings is consistent with that of an F22 on the radios (I hear them every day). 2: The B-21 doing 500 KTS at a low altitude of around 10,000 feet? That seems a bit excessive especially considering the basic flight test envelope portion of the Raider program isn’t even complete at Edwards yet. 2: The F22s are the only ones at EDW using the tactical callsigns. I hope this helps and I absolutely love the comm recordings you upload, but in this specific case OSLO91 was an F22. Thanks for being respectful and civil in your response!
