F/A-22

What do you think about adding the F/A-22 as a air-to-air fighter? Yes, it's a little futrruristic, but It will be in service soon. If not, how about a F-117 with AGM-88s and sensors for SEAD missions?

Meh, i say ditch all planes. PR would be better without any planes as it is now. Just keep the copters

Well wait for them to tweak the aircraft first. I would like to know more about what they are doing with them before we jump on the anti plane bandwagon.

Actually F22 is returned to the factory, cause the whole squadron had technical malfunction during routine flight.

If you are referring to the international date line cpu crash. The issue was fixed within hours of landing, but took 2 days of testing before they were allowed to fly again.

F-22...... If you put that then were gonna need a ton of new planes to whoop its... Listen With that aircraft you would need to give the MEC Su-37s, Su-47s, Mig-144s and the same with the Chinese with the J-XX, and then youl complain like "Wtf why iSt N0 sT3Alth 0n mA pLaN3s???" stick with the Current selection.

AND STOP WITH THE NO PLANE SUGGESTIONS BF2 IS TOTAL COMBINED ARMS WARFARE!!!!!!

Prefer to see F-35 as part of a carrier map. More dynamic and exciting in terms of map development.

i.e.

A small jungle clearing forward air base where only VTOL craft can land easily.
Ability to land, and perhaps re-arm from forward controlled supply dumps and inserted ammunition resources.
Or just as part of an air-superiority function from runways.

Sorry to get your panties in a bunch, just quoting facts. Yes, they are experiecing teething problems but the fact remains that the squadron has been "stood up". Save your anti-plane bitchfests for someone who cares.

F-117 stealth fighter is slated for retirement--I belive in 2008

Suggestion: Get your information from places other than Future Weapons.
And remember, its better to keep your mouth closed and be thought of as an idiot, then to open it and remove any doubt.

The Stryker family of vehicles is in service in more than just the 9th Infantry, Teek. And as of now, two Marine squadrons of the Osprey have stood up. But the JSF has a long way to go.

TF6049, this has been suggested before. Please do a search next time.

BTW, the designation is now F-22A. The "Attack" secondary prefix has been correctly ditched in this case.
