Post; six internal AIM-120 AMRAAM Advanced Medium Range Air-to-Air Missiles


I knew this jet would get better and will continue to improve even more. With it's stealth and six Slammers it can take on even Su-30 Flankers. The F-35 could be some much better in ways then the F-22 because what was learned from the F-22 project overall.

The Joint Strike Fighter could be upgraded to carry up to six internal AIM-12
AMRAAM Advanced Medium Range Air-to-Air Missiles, according to a Lockheed Martin executive. "Our spiral development program includes the ability to carry up to six internal AMRAAMs", G. Richard Cathers, senior manager of Lockheed Martin's strategic studies group, told the IQPC Fighter Conference in London on Wednesday. "It's a capability second only to the F-22."

"It's a capability second only to the F-22."

Can the F-22 carry more than 6?

Hi therise21
From what I could find out the F-22 carries only six AMRAAMs, but it does carry a pair of AIM-9 (-M at the moment, soon to be -X).
