but is f-x really going to replacement for f-22, being retired, realistically, from 2045 to 2055 or something like that...

OR is it going to be replacement for remaining f-15c and accompanying f-22 - from 2035 onward?


Because with all these f15c airframe refits going over 12,000 hours and approaching 15,000 hours it is perfectly plausible that 200ish remaining f15c/d will indeed last until 2035.


the f-22 graph represents retirement based on initial lifetime projection. but as we've seen with pretty much every single usaf plane - they all get several thousand of hours more by the time they get retired. So 2036 seems like unrealistcal date...
