Feel the force of the most advanced fighter plane in the world today! Equipped with a staggering array of high-tech aeronautic breakthroughs, bombs and missile, this replica of the F-22 Raptor first flight tested in February of 1998 puts the powerhouse of the US Air Force in your hands.
Designed to meet a US Air Force requirement for an Advanced Tactical Fighter (ATF) to replace the F-15 Eagle, the F-22 was first flown on September 29th, 1990. The USAF's ATF program aimed to produce a fifth-generation air superiority fighter that would be better matched against emerging new aircraft such as the Su-27 Flanker. The F-22 uses stealth technology and can function in air superiority, ground attack, intelligence and electronic warfare roles. Despite its capabilities, the F-22 program was relatively short-lived; by 2010 its high cost coupled with the development of the F-35 (a more versatile and less expensive aircraft) led to a cessation of F-22 production funding. © Copyright 2003-2024 The Flying Mule, Inc.
