The pilot and weapons team participating in the 28-missile record-breaking action came from two units – the 94th Fighter Squadron and 94th Fighter Generation Squadron. Twenty-eight missiles is more than the record of 22 set in 2014 with an F-22 that flew out of Joint Base Elmendorf-Richardson in Anchorage, Alaska. While pushing the limit during an exercise, a pilot and ground crew hustled to load and shoot 28 air-to-air missiles from a single F-22 during a weapons test in September. If the F-22 Raptor went into maximum weapon configuration, what would that look like? Pilots and crew from two squadrons of the 1st Fighter Wing based out of Joint Base Langley-Eustis in Virginia decided to find out how many air-to-air missiles the F-22 could fire in training.
