Will India get the F22 Raptor?

The F-22 Raptor is a fifth-generation fighter aircraft developed by the United States Air Force. India has expressed its interest in acquiring the F-22 Raptor for its air force. However, due to its high cost and the US government's refusal to sell it to any other nation, it is unlikely that India will be able to acquire the F-22 Raptor. India's current air force is equipped with a variety of fourth-generation fighters and some fifth-generation fighters, such as the Sukhoi Su-30MKI. India is likely to focus on acquiring more fifth-generation fighters in the near future, but the F-22 Raptor will remain out of reach.
