It's Tuning Month here at AE, a month where we pay tribute to all of the wrenchers, welders, and DIY gurus both in the industry and in their garage. The kind of people who turn everyday vehicles into unique and exciting rocketships. Most tuner culture is associated with the automotive sphere, but every once in a while, the U.S. military also decides to take an existing platform and make it even faster.

If there is one military aircraft that would have probably deserved a better fate, then that’s the F-22 Raptor. Introduced with great fanfare in 2005, the extraordinary fifth-generation fighter plane ended up being the victim of political and economic factors, and its production ceased in 2011.

There are things in life people can never get enough of. Depending on a great deal of factors, these things can be anything from the tangible material possessions to the more elusive feelings. The pic we have here is for those who can’t have enough of seeing F-22 Raptors making short work of their natural environment, and looking spectacular in the process.
