Can the F-22 Raptor tighten its grip on any other Aircraf fighter?

The F-22 Raptor and  the Russian Mig-31 BM

The answer is yes you can, the F-22 is certainly not the fastest among combat aircraft with a top speed of 2,500 km / h compared to a Russian SU-37 with a top speed of approximately 2,900 km / h, or the American Advanced Eagle F-15 with a Its speed is 3000 km / h, but what these planes cannot do is persist at the same high speed without being damaged by its structure or consuming most of its fuel in a short period. If F-15 Advanced Eagle or SU-37 wanted to fly for a longer period, these planes would need To maintain its subsonic velocity, while the F-22 can fly long distances at super speeds that reach or exceed Mach 1.4 without reaching The level of combustion in engines, which allows them to catch and tighten their grip on any combat plane, no matter how far away between them.

While this fixed base for the F-22 has an exception, it is the Russian Mig-31 fighter that can fly at a maximum speed of 3000 km / h past the Raptor whose speed does not exceed 2500 km / h, and the Mig-31 can accommodate its internal fuel tank. Twice as much as the Raptor can carry without resorting to external tanks, that is, it can reach a super speed of 1.5 Mach with a long-burning mode equal to that of the F-22 Raptor when it flies at a speed of Mach 1.4, (a radius of a circle of 700 to 800 km) either In terms of durability, the Mig-31 hull can withstand the high pressure and speed of the nature of the tasks assigned to it, so it is not Strange that this fighter is honored to carry the Russian rocket dagger with a speed of Mach 10 anti-aircraft carriers without other Russian aircraft.

The F-22 Raptor

The F-22 Raptor air superiority fighter is almost invisible to radars. This aircraft carries a powerful array of weaponry. It is the most advanced and most expensive production fighter aircraft to date. Many of sensors and avionics of this plane remain classified.Currently it is the best fighter aircraft ever built.Engines of the raptor allow the aircraft to supercruise over long ranges, while thrust-vectoring nozzles, combined with a triplex fly-by-wire flight control system, make it exceptionally maneuverable.

The MiG-31BM

The MiG-31BM is the latest version of the MiG-31 interceptor, which forms the backbone of Russia's air defenses. The upgraded MiG-31BM received a ground attack capability and became a true multi-role fighter. This aircraft is able to undertake long-range interception, precision strike and defense suppression tasks. Both cockpits feature advanced displays allowing the crew to deploy precision-guided munitions. This fighter has a high speed, altitude and rate of climb, however it sacrifices maneuverability in order to achieve these capabilities. The MiG-31BM is among the fastest production aircraft. It can reach a maximum speed of up to 3 000 km/h.
