U.S. Senators studying idea for export version of F-22
An anonymous source told Reuters on Monday that the U.S. Senate Appropriations Committee's defense subcommittee is considering requiring the U.S. Air Force to study the viability of creating an export version of the F-22.
"There may be language inserted into the fiscal 2010 appropriations bill that would at least look at the possibility," said the source.
Export of the F-22 is banned under an amendment by House Appropriations Committee Chairman David Obey that was passed in 1998.
