The US Air Force has approved a new modification program that will allow fifth-generation F-22 Raptor stealth fighters to control Collaborative Combat Aircraft (CCA) aircraft, commonly known as unmanned wingmen.
As outlined in the fiscal year 2026 budget rationale, this new initiative, called the Crewed Platform Integration (CPI) program, allocates $15.048 million for the first phase of procurement, installation, training, and support. These efforts include the purchase and installation of cabin kits consisting of tablets, communication cables, and related system integration materials. The program is classified under the identification code B, which means that it is not yet ready for operation.
