O F22 Raptor Lockheed Martin/Boeing é caracteristicamente um caça de combate com tecnologia de invasão furtiva. É prioritariamente um caça para superioridade aérea mas com múltiplas capacidades que incluem ataque terrestres, guerra eletrônica e função de sinal/interferência de inteligência. As Forças Aéreas Norte Americanas consideram o Caça F-22 Raptor como uma das principais armas de resposta imediata para defesa de seu território e espaço aéreo.
Projetado inicialmente para a Força Aérea Americana "USAF" como uma aeronave de Caça F-22 . O Marechal do Ar Angus Houston, Chefe da Força de Defesa Australiana, comentou em 2004 que o "F-22 foi um caça bem projetado e desenvolvido no foco de superioridade aérea."
Visando o período de projeto do desenvolvimento, para o caça que teve varias designações como o F-22, F/A-22 e FX durante 3 anos de testes e usado em segredo até entrar formalmente nos serviços da US Air Force "USAF" em 2005, nomeado como F-22A.

A Empresa Aéronautica "Lockheed Martin Aeronautics" é a maior responsável pelo contrato de fabricação, e majoritária no projeto do designer aeronáutico, também fabricante dos sistemas de bombas/Armas e sua construção primaria do F-22. A Boeing é responsável pela integração dos sistemas de defesas, da fuselagem e do corpo da aeronave incorporando os Avionics e sensores, também pelo cockpit do piloto, sua manutenção e treinamento do piloto aos sistemas.
Projetado inicialmete em 1981 pelas Forças Aéreas Norte Americanas (USAF) Desenvolvido pela necessidade de um novo conceito de superioridade aéria, O "The Advanced Tactical Fighter" (ATF) Caça com sistemas de táticas avançadas, para substituir as capacidades do caça F-15 Eagle, direcionadamente para os F-15A, B, C e D variantes. "ATF" era uma validação em tecnologias para demonstrar um novo programa com a incumbência de desenvolver a próxima geração de caças de superioridade aérea emergindo numa linha focada em novos teatros de guerra, comparando com o desenvolvimento e proliferação da Era-soviética em tempos de "Guerra Fria" e sua tecnologia como os novos Flankers, nomeados pela Otan mas designados originais como o Sukhoi Su27 e familia Sukhoi SUx. caça soviético de superioridade aérea, atualmente nomeado como caça PakFA (muito parecido em designer aerodinâmico a um F22). As novas tecnologias abrangem a incorporação pela "ATF" de avanços como novos materiais mais resistentes e leves, sistemas avançados de controle vôo denominado fly-by-wire "flight control systems", Sistemas de propulsão de maior performam-se, e baixo-nível-de-observação/detecção/e tecnologia "stealth" furtiva.
Foi aberto a iniciativa privada um processo de licitação para dar inicio ao projeto em julho de 1986.Formaram equipes em associação para o projeto, a Lockheed/Boeing/General Dynamics e Northrop/McDonnell Douglas foram selecionadas em outubro de 1986, para a construção em 50 meses para demonstrar e validar dois novos protótipos de aeronaves para testes nomeados como projeto YF-22 e o YF-23. Em 23 April de 1991 a USAF anunciou o projeto vencedor, o Lockheed's YF-22, e antecipando a construção de 650 aeronaves. O primeiro F-22 foi fabricado para a Base aérea de Nellis, Nevada, em 14 de janeiro de 2003 e para "Exclusivas Operações de Testes" iniciados em 27 de outubro de 2003. Em 2004, já existam 51 Raptors em serviço.
O primeiro acidente aéreo relatado oficialmente com a aeronave Raptor foi durante uma decolagem na Base de Nellis em 20 de dezembro de 2004, com ejeção do piloto em situação segura antes do impacto da aeronave ao solo. A investigação sobre o acidente resumiu o relato de uma interrupção de energia para os motores fazendo com que eles desligassem em vôo causando um mal funcionamento no sistema de controle do vôo, posteriormente o problema foi resolvido modificando o designer da aeronave.
Em Agosto de 2007, as Forças Aéreas dos Estados Unidos anunciou novos investimentos no valor de 5 bilhões de dólares, prolongando de 2008 para 2011 a produção com Lockheed Martin, de 20 unidades por ano dos F-22 Raptors. Em cerimônia no dia 29 de agosto de 2007, Lockheed Martin alcança o marco do centésimo "100° F-22 Raptor", entregue com AF Serial No.05-4100.
