The 199th Fighter Wing is a unit of the 154th Wing under the Hawaii Air National Guard. The 199th Fighter Squadron is a reverse associate Unit with the 19th Fighter Squadron.  They operate the F-22 Raptor, the Air Force’s 5th generation fighter aircraft. Its combination of stealth, supercruise, maneuverability and integrated avionics, coupled with improved supportability, represents an exponential leap in warfighting capabilities. The Raptor performs both air-to-air and air-to-ground missions allowing full realization of operational concepts vital to the 21st-century Air Force.
