Comparison of the F-22, and the F-35

[Atilla [TR]]

I dunno what the price difference is but I heard there was a 25 million dollar difference, with the F-22 being more expensive. But from what i heard is that the F-22 has a longer range better maneuverability and can carry a bigger load, so I was wondering why more air forces have not adopted this fighter. Personally I think the for the Turkish air force it might be a better idea for them to buy the F-22 because more and more they need to use the longer range because when they do cross border raids they actually scramble the jets from a different area in Turkey far away from the same direction, so that terrorists spies do not alert the terrorists.

It is currently against the law for the US to sell the F-22 to anyone, not even their closest allies.
Also their are plenty of threads here about the F-22 and the F-35, do a search.

Actually thats where your wrong I heard the Japenese airforce was buying them and the Austrailian airforce is considering buying some, but I think IAF has some in it's arsenal allready.

You are completely wrong the F-22 serves no one, but the USAF. The IAF has no Raptors and the Japanese desire to get it was denied from the US, the same aplies to Australia. BTW the Raptor has not really a better range and is less suited for AG missions, equipment wise. And while the F-35 can carry a lot of stuff externally the F-22 is much more limited here.

Uhh... No... You are wrong my friend, this has been talked about over and over again.

This is another pointless braindead platform comparison exercise.

1) Use search before posting any thread
2) Read the rules about whats allowed. Platform comparisons that lack any attention to coherent analysis don't qualify
3) Use facts, not "I heard" or "someone said"
