lots of interseting articles again this month.

Heres a snippet:

"The Virginia ANG’s 192nd Fighter Wing will team with the 1st FW, Langley AFB, Va., to fly the F/A-22 Raptor—marking the first time the Air National Guard has helped bring on a new fighter system. Experienced ANG pilots are to help squeeze maximum combat power from the Raptor."

Did you read the article about the Raptor's coversion to bomber?
If they can market that, then the Raptor's ride for aquisition will much smoother for the Air Force.

Yes I did read that.

IMHO its a long-shot. Because of the budget challenges.

But if the USAF can sell it to Congress I surely wouldnt be against it.
