Senators inquire about selling F-22s to Japan
Lt. Gen. Mark Shackelford, military deputy in the Office of the Assistant Secretary of the Air Force for Acquisition, told a Senate panel on how the F-22 could be exported to Japan once restrictions are lifted.

Shackelford said that a foreign nation interested in acquiring the fighter would have to foot the bill to convert the fighter, in addition to overcoming legal hurdles.
