F-22 tests smoke-out possible problems

LOCKHEED MARTIN/BOEING has almost finished its planned 16,930h wind tunnel testing of the F-22 following the completion of tests for extreme angle-of-attack and to measure aerodynamic and propulsion inlet-effects. Some 900h of tests remain, principally weapons-separation testing with the GBU-30 Joint Direct Attack Munition and the AIM-9X air-to-air missile.
