The F/A-22 Raptor is a a Fighter Bomber designed by Lockheed-Martin and built by Lockheed, Boeing and Pratt and Whitney. The F/A-22 is a stealth fighter with Air-to-Air and Air-to-Ground capabilities. It has supercruise, internal bomb and missile bays vectored thrust. In addition, the F/A-22 uses a new radar and avionics package that allows it to share targets with other Raptors in the flight.
John P. Jumper, USAF Chief of Staff is the only person to have flown both the Eurofighter and the F/A-22

A new fighter built by Lockheed Martin. The F/A-22 Raptor will be have an internal weapons bay and be able to reach the speed of sound without using after burners.

1. A plane so fuckin' maneuverable you can fly up your own ass with it. The pride of the good ol' USAF. Can take down multiple communist aircraft without ever being noticed. Everyone in the USAF wants one.
2. The Decepticon, Starscream, from the movie Transformers. Also featured in the movie Iron Man.
3. The "New Future Weapon" featured in the song by Billy Idol.
4. What Chuck Norris would be if he was an airplane.

1. F-22 radio chatter: "Alright lets bag us some SUCK-ois!" *Fires off six AIM-120s at Russian aircraft*
2. I would pay good money to see Starscream face Iron Man.
3. *It's the dawn of a new future weapon*
4. OMFG! That's not Mobius One in the skies above us! It's Chuck Norris doing a barrel roll!

The Lockheed Martin F-22 Raptor is an American Single-Seat All-Weather Stealth Air-Superiority Fighter, it is equipped with two Pratt and Whitney F119 engines which allow it to achieve a maximum speed of Mach 2.2 (1,500mph; 2,414km/h). It utilizes three internal weapon bays: a large main bay on the fuselage, and two smaller bays on either side of the fuselage; the main bay can accommodate six AIM-120 AMRAAMs and both smaller bays can accommodate one AIM-9 Sidewinder. This results in a standard load-out of six AIM-120s and two AIM-9s, in addition to an internally mounted M61A2 Vulcan 20mm cannon.
The F-22 is considered the most advanced Air-Superiority Fighter in the World today, and is barred from export by the United States

"The F-22 may be expensive, but it is one of the best air-superiority fighters of the modern world."

The worlds most advance Fighter Aircraft. In use by the United States Air Force. It is a Stealth Fighter with Mach 2+ capabilities. It looks like a F-15 Strike Eagle but is nowhere close to it. The F-22 Raptor has the ability of Vector Thrusting to perform maneuvers that no other plane in the world can do. All its weapons are carried inside it's body to provide better stealth, but still has the ability to have outside weapons stations. If you are on the receiving end of this aircraft you will be dead before you know that you were engaged by the USAF.

A relative to the Velociraptor, the F-22 Raptor is the result of combined evolution and nuclear mutation. Far superior in every way to it's cousin, the Velociraptor, the F-22 Raptor can even fly.

Developed by Lockheed Martin/Boeing, the F-22 Raptor is the United States' premier jet fighter. It has extremely advanced dogfighting and BVR (beyond visual range) capabilities. The F-22 also incorporates thrust vectoring (it can move the exhaust to improve maneuverability), stealth, and a radar so advanced that it can track and engage most other aircraft before they even know anything is happening.
