Aircraft Background Information
The F-22 is the latest combat aircraft in active service with the US Air Force. This new fighter offers multi-role capabilities and its potential performance is superior to that of all competing contemporary types of aircraft. The F-22 will primarily replace the F-15 in its current role. It has a higher speed, longer range, the latest offensive and defensive avionics and good stealth characteristics. Equipped with two Pratt & Whitney F110-P-100 turbofan engines each with 10,701 kp thrust the F-22A, unlike the present generation of fighters, can reach a cruising speed of over Mach 1 without afterburner. In addition to a 20 mm cannon it has three internal weapons bays, located one on each side of the fuselage and one in the ventral position. They can accommodate guided missiles or GBU-32 bombs of the new JDAM generation. Due to its design and capabilities the F-22A is regarded as the "Premium Fighter" by the USAF and will also replace the F-117A Night Hawk. The 183 Raptors delivered to date are mainly in service with 1st Fighter Wing in Langley, Virginia, in addition to Elmendorf and Tyndall.
