New Kadena F-22A deployment

Post by Le Addeur noir »

In a surprise move,at least 9 F-22A from 3 Wing,90 FS have arrived at Kadena today.

Photos taken on recovery of these jets to Kadena show (assumed to be in landing sequence),

90 FS flagship jet
11 AF flagship jet
140
3 Wing flagship jet
134
151
142
144
139
141

The jets from the already resident 27 FS were flying today.How much longer these 1 FW Raptors will remain at Kadena is unknown.

A similtanious F-22 deployment here from more than one unit is unprecedented.

Apparently the Langley Raptors had deployed to Kadena because of runway reconstruction work at their home base. The other F-22 squadron (94th FS) is currently deployed to Savannah, Georgia in the continental US.

The FF Raptors from Savannah have gone back to Langley as the base has re-opened.

90FS should be 09-4190, 3WG should be 10-4193, I have nothing for 11AF!
