re: #357 Targetpractice, Worst of Both Worlds

Yep, I still remember reading one article on the eve of operations in Libya, saying “This will be the F-22’s war debut! Finally get to see it in action!” Weeks later, still no sighting of the Raptor in action, probably because they’re still trying to decide what it’s main mission is and working bugs out of the software.

Nah. It’s like you said earlier, more or less. The AF brass will not send the F-22 to Libya. For obvious reasons which make sense regardless of how one feels about the F-22 budget. Right now you want something low and slow like choppers and/or A-10s.
