The YF-22's avionics are equally futuristic. A series of multi-function displays reduces the pilot's workload, while a low-radar reflective canopy allows him almost perfect visibility. The advanced fighter's electronic combat suite provides both offensive and defensive capabilities suitable for the twenty-first century. Although the Soviet Union no longer exists, the MIG and Sukhoi factories continue to turn out advanced new fighters, making the YF-22 a necessity.
