The reason the F-22 won is based on the RCS part, they both were in the 5%
range on all factors except for one. but the truth is that the 22 was 6 feet
smaller than the 23 and had more room for internal stores, it makes a big
diffrence in operations.

What's ironic is the the YF-23 looks more like a Lockheed product than the
YF-22 does.

I know I'm going get a lotta flack for this but I think the 23 was the
best aircraft and that the 22 was a congress pay off to someone.

The YF-23 sure wins the 'wicked looks' competion. The F-22 looks a tad
waddle-ish from some angles...
