As for thrust to weight? The F-15C can have 1.4 or so when it's fairly low on fuel ... the Streak had 1.6. The Strike already beats the C and matches the Streak's performance figures closely enough, IIRC.

The F-22 takes it all away again ... in other words ... you mis-calculated
LOL I forgot about antenna receiver size you needa large seeker for that and even then its inaccurate. So TVM is imposible for such a missile. Command link guidance is fine but with the few nm the active seeker can detect it at plus the inaccuracy of the longwave not to mention the Raptors supercruise speed.I probabaly wasn't thinkin............
