Welcome to Warbird Wednesday! Today we’re visiting one of the most dominant fighters in the world, the Lockheed Martin F-22 Raptor. This airplane is the follow-on to the F-117, combining stealth, aerodynamic performance, and mission systems to develop a more lethal airplane on the battlefield. The F-22 Raptor is a 5th generation fighter with a super cruise ability of Mach 1.82, the radar cross-section of a steel marble an unblinking eye, giving total integration of sensors and battlefield technology to give its pilot nearly instantaneous data drives.
