Remember the tactical fighter review Deputy Defense Secretary Gordon England ordered last year to look for ways to streamline the fighter fleet?

However good this news is for the Air Force, the total number of F-22s—up to 260 per the new study—still falls short of the 381 that the service for at least two years claimed it needed to round out its expeditionary force.
