    A squadron of f-22s could take down most air forces.

    An air wing of f-22s could probably beat all other air forces combined, with the possible exception of china, though damn they would need to figure out how to keep reloaded.

    The USAF is the strongest air force in the world.

    The second strongest is the US navy Air wing.

    Think the marines are 4.

    Edit: this is an old listing, and russia was #3, so I think we actually have the trifecta.

      At one point I believe the Navy had more aircraft total than the AF, but they had them beat in specialization. AF does the heavy lift jobs, stealth, and up until recently, space launches and satellites. I think Navy and Marine F-18’s fly more sorties though.

      Yea I feel like all the charts with russia on them need to be redrawn… it’s clearly noticable at this point they’ve been a paper military.
