The Avionic system of the F-22 Raptor is highly different in comparison to the Avionics of other Fighter aircraft. The F-22 is equipped with highly integrated avionics, which all work unlike on conventional aircraft as one, to provide 360° situational awareness, this gives a pilot a clear edge over its adversaries.
The Avionic system of the F-22 Raptor is highly different in comparison to the Avionics of other Fighter aircraft. The F-22 is equipped with highly integrated avionics, which all work unlike on conventional aircraft as one, to provide 360° situational awareness, this gives a pilot a clear edge over its adversaries. The F-22 is capable of functioning as a "mini-AWACS." Though reduced in capability compared to dedicated airframes such as the E-3 Sentry, as with its threat identification capability, the F-22's forward presence is often of benefit. The system allows the F-22 to designate targets for cooperating F-15s and F-16s, and even determine if two friendly aircraft are targeting the same enemy aircraft, thus enabling one of them to choose a different target. It is often able to identify targets hundreds of times faster than accompanying dedicated AWACS.
