The F-22 program is developing the next-generation air superiority fighter for the Air Force to counter emerging worldwide threats. It is designed to penetrate enemy airspace and achieve a first-look, first-kill capability against multiple targets.

The F-22 is characterized by a low-observable, highly maneuverable airframe; advanced integrated avionics; and aerodynamic performance allowing supersonic cruise without afterburner.

And now I read at this blog: http://community.travelchinaguide.com/forum2.asp?pp=1&i=36189 that America is already deploying F22s to Okinawa.
You can also read this article:

Though I can't vouch for the quality of the Washington Post.

Oh, and Chinese people: That blog I linked to is written by a guy whose politics, especially his views on Taiwan, you probably won't like. Just a warning.

I think that it is not so important to know what is MIG or F something... This kind of knowledge do not developing our thinking. It is the same as if you know PITAYA or STARFRUIT...Much better and useful for the innovation, productiveness of the thinking is, for example, to know the system of HEGEL or LENIN.
