Introduced into service December of 2005 the F-22 had a long and storied beginning. The USAF now considers the F-22 a critical component of the U.S. tactical air power, and claims that the aircraft is unmatched by any known or projected fighter. With a combination of stealth, speed, agility, precision and situational awareness, combined with air-to-air and air-to-ground combat capabilities, this makes the F-22 the best overall fighter in the world today.
