2. The F-22 Has Appeared In Major Blockbusters
The F-22 Raptor has appeared in numerous Hollywood blockbusters practically and rendered through computer graphics imagery (CGI). The first blockbuster appearance was in Hulk (2003) depicted through CGI. The actual F-22 debut was in Transformers (2007), and its follow up Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen in 2009. Director Michael Bay was allowed to film them due to his support of the military. The character Starscream was famously depicted transforming into a Raptor in the films. Another major appearance of a real F-22 was in the 2008 film Iron Man where the aircraft struck Iron Man’s suit.
