Lockheed F-22 Raptor

Designed to meet the USAF’s requirement for an advanced tactical fighter, the F-22 was first flown on September 29th, 1990. This single-seat, twin-engine fighter features a standard internal 20mm cannon and weapon bays. Its advanced turbofans allow the aircraft to operate at supersonic speeds without the need for afterburning—a technology termed “supercruise.” The F-22’s shape and highly secret coatings and composite material construction give it stealth-like capabilities. The USAF considers the F-22 a critical component of the strike force, and claims that the F-22 cannot be matched by any known or projected fighter aircraft.
