F/A-22 Raptor or F-35 Joint Strike Fighter?

Question

If you had the opportunity to fly either of these two which would it be and why?

Answer 1

Well, the F-22 is way faster and maneuvers better, but they both share stealth and the same basic electronics. Also, the F-35 can hover like a Harrier, can take off of aircraft carriers and can hold more high tech and effective bombs than the F-22. So in other terms, the F-22 is made for strike and low altitude bombings, and the F-35 is for short take off and landing, defense strike, and A-10 like bombing missions.

Answer 2

F-22.

Answer 3

Best performance in all axis, and the fastest thing at cruise there is.

Answer 4

F-35 vtol ... no contest

Answer 5

Su-37! Not stealthy, but you can get like 10 for the price of one F-22, and its a complete badass in a dogfight.

Answer 6

The F-22. Its the true fighting bird, designed for air superiority and that means superior fighting capabilities than the F-35 which is predominantly strike oriented. Its should be more fun to fly a 5th generation fighter than a much less sophisticated attack aircraft.

BTW, not all F-35s hover.

Answer 7

f-22

Answer 8

f-22 by far,
