Should we be thinking of using the FB-22 Raptor as a replacement
for the F/A-18 (and the F-14)?
Lots of luck making a carrier landing in an F-22
I know that the current F-22 was
not designed to be heavy enough for naval use, but it could be
re-engineered. They are planning to bring the FB-22 (bomber
version that carries 30 2000 lbs bombs) online in the future.
Why not upgrade it then?
3 x 2000 lbs perhaps certainly not 30
