If not mistaken it was the 1st B757 produced & now is used as a Flight test bed for the F22 Wing & nose section & avionics.

U mean to say the front "small wings" kind of things attached above the cockpit region are the F-22's wings?


So small?

I remember seeing a modified HS748 taxing at Yelahanka in BLR which had the nose of the LCA retrofitted on its normal nose. Looked weird!!
