F-35 vs F-22 vs F-16: The Ultimate 2025 Fighter Jet Showdown

F-35 vs F-22 vs F-16: The Ultimate 2025 Fighter Jet Showdown

The F-35 has three variants—F-35A, F-35B, and F-35C—and can carry 2× 2000-lb bombs internally (or up to 18,000 lb externally) with a top speed of about Mach 1.6. As of 2025, the F-35A unit flyaway price is roughly $80–$90 million (B/C around $100 million), with production around 150 jets per year and over 1,000 aircraft delivered. The F-22 Raptor entered service in 2005, with only 195 aircraft built before production ended in 2011, making it a boutique USAF-only fighter. The F-22 can reach Mach 1.8 in supercruise and Mach 2.25+ in level flight, carries 6 AIM-120 AMRAAMs and 2 AIM-9

Space Showdown: Starlink Doubleheader, Vulcan’s Debut, Ariane 6 Triumph & Cosmic Discoveries (Aug 14–15, 2025)

Space Showdown: Starlink Doubleheader, Vulcan’s Debut, Ariane 6 Triumph & Cosmic Discoveries (Aug 14–15, 2025)

On Aug. 14, 2025, SpaceX launched two Falcon 9 missions 12 hours apart, first from Vandenberg with 24 Starlink satellites and then from Cape Canaveral with 28 Starlink satellites, with deployments confirmed and boosters recovered at sea (one on its 10th flight). These back-to-back flights brought SpaceX’s 2025 Falcon 9 count to 99 and pushed the Starlink megaconstellation to over 8,100 active satellites in orbit. California’s Coastal Commission unanimously vetoed SpaceX’s plan to raise Vandenberg’s annual Falcon 9 launches from 50 to 95, with the U.S. Space Force signaling a possible override and SpaceX suing the commission.

F‑22 Raptor’s Explosive 2025: Combat Missions, Big Upgrades & a New Lease on Life

F‑22 Raptor’s Explosive 2025: Combat Missions, Big Upgrades & a New Lease on Life

In June 2025, F-22 Raptors from the 1st Fighter Wing deployed from Langley AFB to the Middle East as part of Operation Midnight Hammer, joining a strike package of 125 U.S. aircraft including B-2 bombers dropping 30,000-pound bunker-buster bombs on Iran’s Fordow and Natanz, marking the Raptor’s first direct strikes against a nation-state. On July 8, 2025, a USAF KC-46A Pegasus tanker suffered a mid-air refueling boom separation while refueling F-22s off the U.S. East Coast, the F-22 returning safely with no damage, and it was the second such KC-46 boom detachment in a year.
