This authoritative book takes you through the acquisition, development, and design process for the U.S. Air Force’s 21st-century air dominance fighter--the F-22 Raptor. The authors have been intimately involved in the acquisition and development of the advanced tactical fighter (ATF) program from its inception. This book traces the history of the ATF program and the evolution of the ATF requirements from the beginning of the program through the start of the engineering and manufacturing development.
