The F-22A Block 35 09-4191 in 3D

A procedural model built in Blender from the type’s published dimensions, painted as Lockheed Martin F-22A Raptor Block 35 serial 09-4191 of the 94th Fighter Squadron, 1st Operations Group, Joint Base Langley-Eustis, Virginia, as photographed at the Royal International Air Tattoo, RAF Fairford, in July 2016 (no F-22 is in a UK museum): the American stealth air-superiority fighter of 1997, with a chined and faceted nose, raked caret intakes, a diamond wing, canted twin fins, large all-moving tailplanes and rectangular thrust-vectoring nozzles for its two Pratt & Whitney F119 turbofans: metallic grey, pale above and darker below the chine, with a darker radome behind a sawtooth joint, paler wing and tailplane margins, a dark panel on each fin carrying ‘FF’ and ‘AF 09 191’ in pale grey, tan screened panels behind the gold-tinted frameless canopy and a dark low-visibility national star on the port upper wing, parked with its weapons bays closed (shape from a three-view of the F-22A; gear bays, door outlines and panel lines are simplified, the nozzles are styled from another F-22, the fin crest is a simplified outline, the starboard fin’s serial and crest are mirrored from port, and small stencils are left off).
