About The F-22

I am sure all of us have heard of the F-22 but incase you are not too farmillar with it here are some besic statistics.

Top Speed:  Mach 2.84 (true speed unknown to the public.
Cost: 150 million
Manufacturer: Lockheed Martin
Origin country: USA
Primary User: United States Air Force
Number Built: 168 as of October 2010
Role: Stealth air superiority fighter.

And well those are the basics but what you may not know is the F-22 is one of the only jets in the world with the unique thrust vectoring engines enhancing the maneuverability of the fighter. With air and ground attack capabilities aswell as an internal weapons bay make it a superior fighter.This jet will sneak up on you with stealth abilities and take the target out before it even knows it's there. This jet isn't all just fast and stealthy, the pilot is also comfortable with a cockpit more luxurious than most jets out there. Apparently it is even equiped with a seat warmer! The liquid crystal HUD helps with those tough jobs and little effort on the pilots part as far as startup goes. The jet does most of the work there. All of this rolled into one, technologicly advanced fighter. the best in the world. (as far as I know).

So please, point out any mistakes and update if you wish. Feel free to comment. This is my first blog.
