The Lockheed Martin F-22 Raptor is the only stealth fighter that refuses to compromise on kinematics. While abysmal versus a family car, that is approximately triple the fuel economy of comparable fighter jets. It allows the American stealth fighter to rapidly change position across an entire theater to counter enemy movements, exploit strategic openings, and support friendly forces. That single feature cuts its supersonic fuel burn nearly in half compared to its peers. Related Why Is The F-22 Raptor Slower Than The 52-Year-Old F-15 Eagle?
