Air Force eyes fleet of 183 F-22 fighters
The USAF wants to buy 183 Raptors, four more than currently budgeted for, but less than the 381 it needed. Rename as F-22A.

The Air Force freeze the A-model configuration and channel the money to pay for the additional jets.

The USAF also decided to name the jet, F-22A, dropping the A from the first part of the fighter's designation.
