The F-22 software is what you would call a "hard real-time system" - in which event-handling and deadlines are extremely stringent. Even apart from the fact that ADA's the main language, this is a far more complex system we're talking about than a Linux box. ADA incidentally is the language of choice on many troublesome DoD platforms - Osprey being another prime example.
