Description

The F/A-22 Raptor is a stealth, long-range, supersonic, multi-role fighter designed to replace the F-15 Eagle ensuring the Us Air Force Air Dominance in the first quarter of the 21st century. It will be able to fight against the most sophisticated integrated air defense networks, as well as to gain and to keep air dominance against sophisticated enemy fighter aircraft fielded or under development. The F/A-22 features two internal side bays and one center bay for weaponry. The side bays will accommodate one AIM-9X Sidewinder each. The center bay will carry up to six AMRAAM missiles or two AMRAAM and two GBU-32 JDAM bombs. A built-in 20mm M61A2 cannon will be provided for close-in air-to-air engagements. In addition, the F/A-22 would load external weaponry and fuel tanks when assured air superiority. The external loads represent to increase radar cross section and drag, as well as lower survivability and aerodynamic performance.
