I still don't know what I like better about the YF-23 compared to the YF-22...
Why do people like the Black Widow over the Raptor, I think the YF-23 is ugly and much rather prefer the Raptor. I know I’m going to get blasted
about that statement but someone had to say it.
Finally, someone who's man enough to admit his oppinion is an oppinion! I disagree with what you said, but I admire you for having the guts to admit
it's an oppinion and not try to pretend that it's a fact! Great job Westpoint!
I prefrerr the YF-23 because of it bold and radical design. In my oppinion, it's a work of art, and an eligant solution to the Air Superiority
mission of the AFT program. It's sleek, fast and stealthy! I also thought the technology of the YF-23 is better! Lockheed took the cheap way out,
just meeting the program goals, and got the prize. In my oppinion that sais the Pentagon doesn't value creativity, effort, and liberal thinking.
Really poor choice on their part!
