The biggest strength of both F-35 and F-22 is their stealth technology. This technique makes them almost invisible on the radar. When the enemy’s radar is not able to catch them, then the possibility of attack is very low. This is the reason that these jets can enter the enemy’s area and carry out the operation without being caught.

The specialty of F-22 raptor is its supercruit ability, that is, this jet can also fly at supersonic speed without using afterburner. This feature saves fuel and gives the enemy a chance to suddenly surprise. At the same time, F-35 Lightning II can also hold a speed of about 1.6 Mac (more than 1200 mph), so that it can work very fast in any mission.

Another technique that makes these jets special is avionics and sensor system. The F-35 consists of distributed aperture system (DAS) and electro-optical targeting systems (EOTS) that gives the pilot accurately guess the 360 ​​degree view and every movement of the enemy. The pilot can see all the data from its helmet display in real time. This helmet is so advanced that even outside the pilot aircraft can feel like seeing “beyond the wall”.

The weapons in these aircraft make them even more fatal. Both F-22 and F-35 are equipped with air-to-air missiles, air-to-ground bombs and guided weapons. The special thing is that these weapons are kept in the interiors of the aircraft so that their signal is not found on the radar. That is, the enemy will not know and the attack will already happen.

F-35 is also called “Flying Computer” because it acts like a command center, not just a fighter jet. This enemy’s information is not only limited to itself but also shares with the entire army and Navy network. With this, the rest of the weapons and soldiers in the battlefield also get the right information at the right time.

Today, if you want to choose the most powerful fighter jet in the world, then the F-22 raptor and F-35 Lightning II with the US come at the forefront. Stealth feature, supersonic speed, deadly weapons and advanced technology have made them the deadliest weapon in the battlefield. This is the reason that these aircraft are called “game-changer” and the rest of the countries are constantly working on new technology to compete them.
