Everyone loves to talk about the F-35. It’s new, it’s expensive, it’s everywhere. But here’s the truth: when it comes to pure air dominance, the F-22 Raptor is still the top dog—and every serious pilot knows it. Forget all the flashy systems and cost spreadsheets. Air superiority is about this: "Who sees first. Who fires first. Who leaves alive." The F-22’s radar cross-section is so small it disappears on enemy screens before it even locks on. It supercruises without afterburners. And it turns inside anything that dares to get close. Russia’s Su-57 and China’s J-20? Both are chasing shadows. One’s barely in serial production, the other’s flying with engines they didn’t even build. The only reason the F-22 isn't exported is because it's too good. We don’t want anyone else flying it. That should tell you everything. #Military #F22 #AirDominance
