F-22 Raptor (Reuploaded and increased pitch maneuverability)

Please read description...

I've added pitch for the tail to give it more maneuverability. You can freely disable or enable this by activating and deactivating AG 8.

(Just because there are no control surfaces doesn't mean it won't fly. The reason why there is no control surfaces is because I decided to try making custom wings by using the structural wing part as the framework and as the elevator, roll and yaw. Once you fly it you know what I mean.)

This is probably one of my favorite builds after the AV-8B Harrier. I put in quite a lot of effort to make this F-22 Raptor of mine look as close and similar as the one in real life. It even has working weapon bay doors and it takes-off very quick and easy, tho landing it will be difficult (not impossible but difficult) since according to what I know the F-22 Raptor has no air brakes. It's sorta mobile friendly in a way depending on what device you're using.

Weapons:
•M61A1/M61 Vulcan
•2 AIM-9X Sidewinder missiles (Mounted on the side weapon bay)
•6 AIM-120 AMRAAM missiles (Mounted inside the main weapon bay)

Controls:
AG 5= Arm all secondary weapons
AG 6= Unlock main weapon bay doors (Pull VTOL control down to open)
AG 7= Unlock side weapon bay doors (Pull VTOL control down to open)

New added control:
AG 8= Enable or disable tail pitch

Important note:

First, before firing any of the missiles make sure to open the corresponding weapon bay doors otherwise you'll have an EXPLOSIVE surprise.

Second, if you do pitch and roll at the same time in a certain way it can cause the jet to tumble in the air but luckily most of the time the jet will stabilize itself after you release the pitch and roll controls. You can use this as a maneuver to evade missiles, if you are lucky enough and if you time it right you can evade 2-5 missiles without needing to use the countermeasures.
