Posted on: Mar. 2nd, 2006 || www.thenewmexicochannel.com

Holloman Air Force Base is expected to get F-22A Raptors to replace its F-117A Nighthawk stealth fighters, which are being phased out.

Maj. Gen. T. Michael Moseley said Wednesday the Air Force is considering the southern New Mexico base and Hickam Air Force Base, Hawaii, for two squadrons of Raptors.

"New Mexico is going to be the home of the newest fighter jet of the United States military -- the best fighter in the world", Senator Domenici (R-NM) said.
