How fast the F-22 Raptor program adapts to maintain its potential until the 2030s
F-22 program is adapting in order to preserve its potential well into the 2030s, when it will eventually be replaced by the Next Generation Air Dominance System (NGAD)
In point of fact, it has the potential to produce a Raptor that is significantly more robust, lethal, and genetically connected.
However, future applications, in particular as integrated air defense systems (IADS), may require the sale of some radar escape capabilities in order to give the Raptor further improvements in both its ability to survive and to attack.
The modules will most likely be a part of an ongoing effort to keep F-22 performance at a high level until the plane is retired.
