Summary: fascinating book
Comment: Extremely in-depth information on the F-22 (answered many questions of mine, like why there seemed to be notches between the control surfaces). Ample info on the avionics (generally hard to find on this aircraft), with a narrative describing their employment. Great photos of an F-22 under construction. Rare photos of the other lesser known ATF entries are shown (check out Boeing's... same intake as the X-32).
Rating: 5
Summary: Excellent F-22 Book!
Comment: I have the hardback edition (which is basically the same as the softcover edition in content), and I highly recommend this book if you are:
1) An F-22 Raptor enthusiast/supporter/fan etc.
2) A modern aviation buff. And....
3) Interested in advanced aircraft technology.
Author Bill Sweetman has been one of my favorite aviation authors for many years now because he has a nack of writing and presenting aircrafts in narrative form. He also is one of the few aviation authors I know of that actually is present at many of the unveiling and briefings of many of today's modern military aircraft, so when he writes, he's presenting facts and/or opinions based on facts from good sources. This book is no exception.
Along with is delightful insights on the F-22, he presents many then not-so-common photos of the YF-22/F-22 and conceptual artworks. All this combined makes this book, although a little dated (1998), still a must have reference for one's aviation library.
Rating: 5
Summary: Classic Aviation Reporting by Bill Sweetman
Comment: For many years, aviation journalist Bill Sweetman has been on the cutting edge, reporting on new aircraft even before they make their first flight. "F-22 Raptor" is no exception.
"F-22 Raptor" is the story of the development of America's new air superiority fighter. Like most Bill Sweetman books, it combines gorgeous and rare color photographs with descriptions of the technology that goes into building this new wonder plane. His facts are good, and he has a knack for discovering rare photogaphs and secret information.
Technophiles and aviation enthusiasts should not miss this wonderful little book.
