After a US MQ-9 Reaper drone was downed by a Russian Su-27 fighter jet over the Black Sea, the US Air Force has now deployed its advanced F-22 Raptors to Poland to strengthen NATO’s defenses.
In a show of force, American F-22 Raptor fighter jets landed in Poland on a rotational mission to enhance NATO’s defense capabilities and counter potential threats from Russia.
With the latest deployment, the Raptors are poised to soar over NATO’s Eastern Flank, close to Russia.
On April 11, Mariusz Błaszczak, Poland’s Minister of National Defense, tweeted that the USAF F-22 fighter jets had arrived in the country to collaborate with the Polish air force. This is part of an effort to enhance the collective defense capabilities of NATO allies on the alliance’s eastern flank.
Polish MoD said, “US F-22 Raptor fighter jets have landed in Poland. One of the world’s most modern aircraft will work alongside Polish pilots continuing support on the NATO’s eastern flank.”

The US Air Force command in Europe and Africa stated that the F-22 Raptors sent to Powidz in Wielkopolskie Province, Poland are part of a rotational mission.
These F-22s are from the 94th Fighter Squadron, based in Langley-Eustis Air Force Base in Virginia, and will take over the fighter mission from the F-15 aircraft belonging to the Royal Air Force Lakenheath’s 48th Fighter Wing.
The USAF noted that the air base in Poland provides the United States with the necessary infrastructure and proximity to allies and partners, which is crucial for executing various missions along the Eastern Flank, as well as in the Baltic Sea and Black Sea regions.
This arrangement facilitates close collaboration between coalition forces, improving interoperability and joint efforts. However, this is not the first time these stealth fighter aircraft arrived in Poland.
In August 2022, 12 F-22 Raptors from the United States Air Force’s 90th Fighter Squadron stationed at Joint Base Elmendorf-Richardson in Alaska landed at the 32nd Tactical Air Base in Łask, Poland.
F-22 Raptors
The F-22 Raptor was developed during the late 1980s and early 1990s to replace the F-15 Eagle. It was designed as the world’s first fifth-generation fighter jet, with stealth being a crucial feature.
The original plan was to build 750 F-22s, but the end of the Cold War meant that the US Air Force no longer had a rival air force to compete with.
The US government subsequently reduced the number of F-22s it planned to produce, and in 2009, amidst a global financial crisis, it decided to stop production after manufacturing 187 aircraft.
As relations with both China and Russia have deteriorated over the past decade, both countries have developed their own fifth-generation fighter jets to rival the F-35 and F-22 fighter jets of the US Air Force.
China alone has over 200 Chengdu J-20 fighter jets, with another fifth-generation jet, the J-31, in development. The US Air Force is developing a replacement for the F-22 called Next Generation Air Dominance (NGAD) in response to the emerging threats. This sixth-generation fighter is expected to enter service in the late 2020s.
As per its 2024 budget request, the US Air Force has proposed retiring nearly 36 F-22 Raptors early to free up budget dollars to develop the stealth fighter’s future replacement.
The proposal to retire early F-22s has caused controversy, with some arguing that the Air Force could save money by upgrading these planes rather than retiring them.
Others have raised concerns that retiring the F-22s could leave the Air Force short of combat-ready fighter jets in the short term until the replacement Next Generation Air Dominance (NGAD) fighter enters service in the late 2020s.
Nevertheless, the deployment of F-22s in Poland clearly signals the continued commitment of the US to its NATO allies in Eastern Europe with a commitment to keep the Russians in check.
This is the plane that Amerika won’t even sell to it’s closest allies. Why, because it’s even worse than the F35.
They say the F22 is a great plane, so how come the F35 is so crap?
One give away, the F22 is more air combat.
The Russians are thinking, “F-22s? Thank God for that. It could have been F-16s … 18s … something with talent.”
Dear Mr. President Vlad P.
Please do not concern yourself too much with those pesky F-22s or the even worse F-35s.Both are hugely overrated by the ((people)) making obscene amount of money by selling those things and robing the taxpayers.
Even if they were half as good as advertised,which of course they are not, the non binary pilots flying them and the diversity hire female engineers of color maintaining them render them useless.
Having said that, please be careful of “Emma and her two strong moms”, those bitches look seriously dangerous.
Putin carry your arms to the US border NOW !
The Way home or face The Fire.

CHRIST promised, in The Gospel of John, that at His Second Coming, just before The End, He would show people clearly about God.
John 16:25 These things have I spoken unto you in proverbs: but the time cometh, when I shall no more speak unto you in proverbs, but I shall show you plainly of the Father.
He said that just before the Last-Day, when everybody is due to be judged on his/her individual merits, He would come again and publish the Truth of God and enlighten the whole world.
24:27 For as the lightening cometh out of the East, and shineth even unto the West; so shall also the coming of the Son of Man be.
This is also described in The Book of Revelation / Apocalypse, chapter 10, where the Angel gives the apostle, John, a little book and when he eats it up (reads and digests its contents) it is bitter in his belly, but is in his mouth sweet as honey (easy to read, but not so easy to digest and do what it says).
10:7 But in the days of the voice of the seventh angel, when he shall begin to sound, the mystery of God should be finished, as He hath declared to His servants the Prophets.
10:8 And the voice which I heard from heaven spoke unto me again, and said, Go [and] take the little book which is open in the hand of the angel which standeth upon the “sea” and upon the “earth”.
10:9 And I went unto the angel, and said unto him, Give me the little book. And he said unto me, Take [it], and eat it up; and it shall make thy belly bitter, but it shall be in thy mouth as sweet as honey.
10:10 And I took the little book (white stone ch. 2:17) out of the angel’s hand, and ate it up; and it was in my mouth sweet as honey: and as soon as I had eaten (digested) it, my belly was bitter.
This Book is available now and is called ‘The Way home or face The Fire’ by JAH (see Malachi chapter 4). It explains the Truth about God; the True interpretation of The Holy Bible and The Holy Koran; the True reasons why what is happening now is happening and what is going to happen in the very near future in the world. It also explains the consequences involved in taking each of the two paths – The Way home or the way to The Fire.
NOTE: All the printed copies have sold out (17th October 2020).
