Sen. Chambliss (R-Ga.) To Fight To Restore F-22

Sen. Saxby Chambliss (R-Ga.) continues to vow a fight on Defense Secretary Robert Gates’ plans to halt the F-22 Raptor program at 187 of the stealth jet fighters.

In an April 13 teleconference call with reporters, Chambliss said restoring the F-22, which is assembled at a Lockheed Martin plant employing about 2,000 in Marietta, Ga., was “by far, at the very, very top of my list” when he gets back from a congressional fact-finding trip to the Middle East and Afghanistan.
