Photo Comment

The Raptor, viewed from the front, has a distinctive, stealthy design. Key features include a curved fuselage, hard-edged angles, and a golden canopy. The F-22s clipped delta wings, large leading-edge flaps, and canted vertical stabilizers are also visible. The front view highlights the aircraft's low observable (stealth) design, minimizing its radar cross-section. And check the enormous reach of the horizontal stabilizers and rudders as well as the camouflage scheme which clearly reveals some new parts on the aircraft.
