"How many do we own of these? Enough to make a difference anywhere?"

Well realize (if specs have not changed) this puppy can Cruise at Mach 1. That means no afterburners which means much greater range then say an f16 or an f15.

That alone combined with the stealth capabilities puts it in a class by itself. It makes the old stealth fighter look like a prop trainer plane.

Don't know how they compare on specs, but the F-22 reminds me of the SR-71.
