Key Points and Summary - A head-to-head comparison between the upgraded F-15EX and the F-22 Raptor concludes that stealth remains the decisive factor in air combat.
-While the F-15EX boasts a higher top speed, longer range, and a massive payload, earning it the title of "missile truck," it cannot hide from the F-22.
The F-15EX, the Air Force’s newest fighter aircraft, arrives to Eglin Air Force Base, Florida March 11. The aircraft will be the first Air Force aircraft to be tested and fielded from beginning to end through combined developmental and operational tests. The 40th Flight Test Squadron and the 85th Test and Evaluation Squadron personnel are responsible for testing the aircraft. (U.S. Air Force photo/Ilka Cole)
-The Raptor’s superior stealth and sensor fusion would grant it a "first-look, first-kill" advantage in a long-range fight.
-In a close-range dogfight, the F-22’s unmatched maneuverability would give it the upper hand, ensuring a decisive victory in any one-on-one encounter.
