Well, F-22 may also be able to take 1x1 countermeasures to get 144 and since countermeausre tech improves and iirc F-22 gets some special ones they could be equivalent to standard cm’s.

The F-22 can only carry AIM-9Xs on the outside pylons afaik. So 6 AIM-120C-5s and 10 AIM-9Xs

Why not AMRAAM? Basically every double launcher in US use can fire both AIM-9 and 120
Do you have photo or doc evidence for that? AMRAAM quite a bit heavier. I don’t know how far the wing loading goes on the F-22
Each station rated for 5,000lb, with photo evidence I can only immediately confirm the inner wings can do this though. That being said, a double racks with AMRAAM doesn’t weigh anywhere near 5000lb

Raptor can take fuel tanks which much more heavier than even 10 AMRAAMs
Twin pylon BTW.

So it can carry 16 AMRAAMs?
14+2 maybe. I’m not sure.
