It is primarily an air superiority fighter, but has multiple capabilities that include ground attack, electronic warfare, and signals intelligence roles.<img src="http://www.wallpapergate.com/data/media/2185/F_22_Raptor_1.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /><img src="http://www.wallpaperbase.com/wallpapers/military/f22raptor/f_22_raptor_4.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" />The United States Air Force considers the F-22 a critical component of the U.S. strike force. The USAF states that the F-22 cannot be matched by any known or projected fighter aircraft.[1] Air Chief Marshal Angus Houston, Chief of the Australian Defence Force, said in 2004 that the "F-22 will be the most outstanding fighter plane ever built."<img src="http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/9/9f/AFG-070605-002.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /><img src="http://static.howstuffworks.com/gif/f-22-raptor-weapons.gif" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /><img src="http://i7.photobucket.com/albums/y276/radeks/Weapons.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" />Faced with a protracted and costly development period, the aircraft was variously designated F-22 and F/A-22 during the three years before formally entering US Air Force service in December 2005, as the F-22A. Lockheed Martin Aeronautics is the prime contractor and is responsible for the majority of the airframe, weapon systems and final assembly of the F-22. Program partner Boeing Integrated Defense Systems provides the wings, aft fuselage, avionics integration, and all of the pilot and maintenance training systems.General characteristics    * Crew: 1    * Length: 62 ft 1 in (18.90 m)    * Wingspan: 44 ft 6 in (13.56 m)    * Height: 16 ft 8 in (5.08 m)    * Wing area: 840 ft² (78.04 m²)    * Airfoil: NACA 64A?05.92 root, NACA 64A?04.29 tip    * Empty weight: 43,430 lb (19,700 kg[1][86])    * Loaded weight: 64,460 lb (29,300 kg[87])    * Max takeoff weight: 83,500 lb (38,000 kg)    * Powerplant: 2× Pratt & Whitney F119-PW-100 Pitch Thrust vectoring turbofans, 35,000+ lb (156+ kN) eachPerformance    * Maximum speed:          o At altitude: Mach 2.25 (1,500 mph, 2,410 km/h)[88]          o Supercruise: Mach 1.82 (1,220 mph, 1,963 km/h)[88]    * Range: 1,600 nmi (1,840 mi, 2,960 km) with 2 external fuel tanks    * Combat radius: 410 nmi[85] (471 mi, 759 km)    * Ferry range: 2,000 mi (1,738 nmi, 3,219 km)    * Service ceiling 65,000 ft (19,812 m)    * Wing loading: 66 lb/ft² (322 kg/m²)    * Thrust/weight: 1.08    * Maximum g-load: -3.0/+9.0 g[88]Armament    * Guns: 1× 20 mm (0.787 in) M61A2 Vulcan gatling gun in starboard wing root, 480 rounds    * Air to air loadout:          o 6× AIM-120 AMRAAM          o 2× AIM-9 Sidewinder    * Air to ground loadout:          o 2× AIM-120 AMRAAM and          o 2× AIM-9 Sidewinder and one of the following:                + 2× 1,000 lb (450 kg) JDAM or                + 2× Wind Corrected Munitions Dispensers (WCMDs) or                + 8× 250 lb (110 kg) GBU-39 Small Diameter Bombs    * Additionally, four external hardpoints can be fitted to carry weapons or fuel tanks, each with a capacity of about 5,000 lb (2268 kg).[89]Avionics    * RWR (Radar warning receiver): 250 nmi (463 km) or more[41]    * Radar: 125-150 miles (200-240 km) against 1 m² targets (estimated range)[39]<img src="/styles/default/xenforo/smilies/default/cool.gif"  class="smilie" loading="lazy" alt=":cool:" title="Cool    :cool:" data-shortname=":cool:" /> <img src="/styles/default/xenforo/smilies/default/cool.gif"  class="smilie" loading="lazy" alt=":cool:" title="Cool    :cool:" data-shortname=":cool:" /> <img src="/styles/default/xenforo/smilies/default/cool.gif"  class="smilie" loading="lazy" alt=":cool:" title="Cool    :cool:" data-shortname=":cool:" /></blockquote>
