The Lockheed Martin F-22 Raptor is a fifth-generation, single-seat, twin-engine, all-weather stealth tactical fighter aircraft developed for the United States Air Force (USAF). The result of the USAF's Advanced Tactical Fighter program, the aircraft was designed primarily as an air superiority fighter, but also has ground attack, electronic warfare, and signal intelligence capabilities. The prime contractor, Lockheed Martin, built most of the F-22's airframe and weapons systems and did its final assembly, while Boeing provided the wings, aft fuselage, avionics integration, and training systems.

The aircraft was variously designated F-22 and F/A-22 before it formally entered service in December 2005 as the F-22A. After a protracted development and despite operational issues, the USAF considers the F-22 critical to its tactical air power, and says that the aircraft is unmatched by any known or projected fighter. The Raptor's combination of stealth, aerodynamic performance, and situational awareness gives the aircraft unprecedented air combat capabilities.

The high cost of the aircraft, a lack of clear air-to-air missions due to delays in Russian and Chinese fighter programs, a ban on exports, and development of the more versatile F-35 led to the end of F-22 production. A final procurement tally of 187 operational production aircraft was established in 2009, and the last F-22 was delivered to the USAF in 2012.

DESCRIPTION :
======================

 

F-23A Grey Ghost is fictional version of the YF-23, based on "What IF" scenario. it's focus on improve the weapon capabilites, modify the cockpit and external design. 

(YF-23 Description)
The Northrop/McDonnell Douglas YF-23 was an American single-seat, twin-engine stealth fighter aircraft technology demonstrator designed for the United States Air Force (USAF). The design was a finalist in the USAF's Advanced Tactical Fighter (ATF) competition, battling the Lockheed YF-22 for a production contract. Two YF-23 prototypes were built, nicknamed "Black Widow II" and "Gray Ghost".

In the 1980s, the USAF began looking for a replacement for its fighter aircraft, especially to counter the USSR's advanced Sukhoi Su-27 and Mikoyan MiG-29. Several companies submitted design proposals; the USAF selected proposals from Northrop and Lockheed. Northrop teamed with McDonnell Douglas to develop the YF-23, while Lockheed, Boeing and General Dynamics developed the YF-22.

The YF-23 was stealthier and faster, but less agile than its competitor. After a four-year development and evaluation process, the YF-22 was announced the winner in 1991 and entered production as the Lockheed Martin F-22 Raptor. The U.S. Navy considered using the production version of the ATF as the basis for a replacement to the F-14, but these plans were later canceled. The two YF-23 prototypes were museum exhibits as of 2010.

==============================

Developer Commentary

1. this F-23A is basiaclly "fictional" aircraft. so something ,or many things are different than original YF-23. 
2. canopy is frameless bubble canopy like F-22.
3. weapons bay is follow YF-23 bay but more expand and larger.
4. this F-23A have small M61 Vulcan ammo drum because lack of space(because large weapon bay) so only can carry 280 rounds.
5. F-23A is can fly more faster and higher,but less agile and slow acceleration than F-22.
6. hope you enjoy this aircraft!

Finally. Can't wait to test it. Thank's for your hardwork firewill. I'll give feedback after test it 

[Bergenholtz 0]

First feedback, I can't choose missile in the pylons settings. It is empty and no choices. Also in the open dialog there is no weapon selection.. 

 

 

 

 

Aaaand it is normal in all your planes except this one..

[Bitesrad 481]

Congrats on the release. Been looking forward to a high fidelity f22.

I'm using the latest of your Air Weapon System (version 2.1) also. And I keep getting this messages..

[Bergenholtz 0]

Thanks, it solved now. Turns out the problem is the folder name in the directory is different from the launcher.. So I had to rename and relaunch and it fixed. Thanks again :)

[Colince411 38]

First F-22 re-skin complete!

 

The body and wing files were very very organized inside of PhotoShop, which made everything just so much easier. Also thank you for adding a very simple and detailed config example inside, I didn't need it, but I know how hard it can be if you are brand new to re-skins, lol.

 

As far as the F-22 goes, it is absolutely amazing! Very well armed, and very VERY fast! Super-cruise is finally here in Arma!

 

Thank you very much for your hard work!

idk about real world 
no problem with plane at all it's still without proper opponent!  put one f22 against 5 or10 other planes in game in this case i used classic bis planes (to-199)  -.- 

[Colince411 38]

I can agree with some issues. The F-22 actually doesn't take damage on its wings. When being fired at by ground AA, the rounds will travel strait through the model. This can also be seen with any weapon, try with a rifle or anything else if you want to see.

 

I love the airplane and the mod is amazing, but the wing issue is kind of big to me.
