  • now everybody is afraid of each other , cus everybody have nukes.

  • @Novantii I kew lol. I knew the US wanted to sell the stupid less agile bulky f35 to europeans lol...

  • although I dont know why i said "version"

    the f-35 is a totally different plane with inferior performance but more logistically/financially practical for conventional warfare

  • No country but the US is allowed to buy/access the F-22

    The cheaper, less stealth and more modular F-35 is the version intended for export and "open-source" development with allied nations

    People can't seem to get over "35" being greater than "22"

  • '

    hi japan,,,

    japan can throw away all ussr russian jetfighters in trashes,,,

    japan dont need ussr russian jetfighters at all

  • @Wookieman008 We didn't sell the F-22 to Japan. The U.S. sent the planes to our military base in Okinawa, Japan which we've had since after WW2. The F-22 is not sold to anyone, not even our allies.

  • @Wookieman008

    If you did some research you would know the F22 has been clearly stated by the US that they will not sell it. Unlike the F35, the F22 is not up for sale! Plus theres a base in Japan for US pilots, and in report it clearly says these are for US pilots and no one else.

  • @princeaferd We're not giving them our top secret technologies of the F-22. All of those advancments have been stripped so just a plain fighter remains so Japan can add all the shit they want to it.

  • @princeaferd haha you'd be surprised, Japan has probably as good technology as US. Only in its constitution that its military is only limited to defense. But she has sopshisticated subs, satellites, space launch vehicles, F-15-type fighters produced in Japan, anti-missile missiles, etc. Japanese computers and electronics are world class. I wouldn't be surprised if the US bought some technology from Japan.

  • @elar55 huh? F-22 cannot "protect jap. from missile attacks..." How will they do this? I know the Japanese Navy can shoot down ballistic missiles. F-22 is a first-strike tactical attack bomber and air superiority fighter.
