Best F-22 for P3Dv5

[Amrick615 6]

Hello Everyone!

What's the best available F-22 out there for P3Dv5? Is it simply just the default one? If so, how good is that one and what things might not be simulated?

Not sure who did the default one in P3D but its not bad not 100% functional though. Virtavia did one for FSX but the caveat it probably is not as good as the stock P3D aircraft. IRIS did a very good one with Tacpak capability not heard if it ports ok into P3D unfortunately but even when it came out it made heavy demands on your PC so if you did not have at least 16GB of RAM it was a no go! Mine is parked in the Virtual Hangar which is about where the USAF's one are as well. Supposedly superseded by the F35. Guess you could see what the feedback is about the IRIS version - their military stuff was usually very good.

In P3D5 the F-22 is in Folder "F-22" and in P3D4 it is named "IRIS Raptor Driver". The files look the same, have just newer dates in P3D5. The FSX Installer I have, creates the same files with older dates and some name differences. But it looks like the same plane everywhere. So no need to buy the Iris FSX one. Never had the Virtavia F-22. Rikoooo has that one but states compatible up to P3Dv1, not compatible with v4. Maybe one could convert the outside model and merge it with the default F-22 cockpit to get the liveries there. 

P.S. To answer your initial question. The best one, is the default one. There is no other 😄
