ince Raptor means " Bird of prey" i think the F-35 should go along
the same lines, and since the F-35 is designed to replace the F-16
also, i would call it the Kestrel wich is in the falcon family. what
sucks is that the V-22 is called the osprey, which is also a bird of
prey. that would be a good name for the VTOL version of the F-

Kestrel was the name of the original version of Harrier.
