F-22 Vs. F-35 Dogfight: Who would win?!?

The F-22 Raptor is the stealthiest fighter ever to fly and it comes to the fight with true hot rod performance thanks to a pair of afterburning turbofan engines that pump out a combined 70,000 pounds of thrust under afterburner.

But what the F-35 lacks in raw power, it makes up for with superior technology, including Infrared Search and Track capabilities.

So who wins this fight?

Finally someone gets it.
The F-22 is getting a 10 billion dollar upgrade to get on par with the F-35 situation awareness.

The question should be can the F35 detect the raptor before the raptor detects it and engages it.

If ANY 5th gen fighter is getting in a dogfight, something has gone terribly wrong.

You gonna ask this question and not follow up with a 20 minute DCS session with commentary? Amateur hour…

[TylerOrchowski]

Different mission sets, and I'm glad we have both.

Please discuss the F22 Raptor vs China Air Balloon and its specifications

The F-35 can shoot and kill opponents that it isn't pointed towards. This is a big advantage too.

In a dogfight specifically it’s the f22 all day. Multiple reasons, it’s more maneuverable, a better energy fighter but it’s also able to dump all its energy like a flanker. And it can carry fox 2 missiles in its stealth configuration, unlike the f35. I feel that alone leads to an f22 win

Two brothers might bicker, but God forbid an outside force pick on either.

If they ever found each other, radars off, it would be F-22 all the way. Both would be flying with active radar off, so passive radar wouldn't do a thing

[azeezosho]

I think it’s no contest, one’s built to fight, the other is built to do everything. Obviously the fighter will win

[spilledmilkgamingYT]

I’ve heard an actual F-35 pilot that was a former F-22 pilot say it can hold its own against the F-22 for a while

[devos]

F35s is more similar to wolves hunting, you have 20 of them in the woods, watching you move around, waiting, deciding when to strike. You catch the sound of them, but you can't see them, until it's too late

F22 wins despite the f35 being my favourite😢

[patmahomesisthegoat]

I’m pretty sure the F-35 is the most stealthy, more advanced, and has the better radar, all of which is crucial in a BVR engagement, although none of which matter in a dogfight because the F-22 practically has super-maneuverability

[djsmith]

I'll save you a minute and a half. The real answer to this simplistic question is: "It depends"

[j.timberwolf]

F22/F35 are great for tag team along F-15EX & F16 along dogfights and ground targets.

[firstlast]

The missiles can turn faster than the raptor and the F35 can deploy a decoy. Unless it's guns only, they're even.

F-22 "Would you intercept me?"

Slight correction: The YF23 was the stealthiest fighter to ever fly. The F22 is the stealthiest to ever enter service
