The F-22 features vectored thrust, which is a huge bonus to its maneuverability. The Raptor's main bragging grounds though is its stealth capabilities, not its agility. I must admit that I've never seen the Eurofighter personally, but I would imagine that the Raptor would definitely give it a run for it's money.

There may be a limited range in which the Eurofighter is more agile,overall the F-22 is light years ahead.It's a generation more advanced and will find and shoot down any enemy planes with the Eurofighter's abilities before they even know they are being attacked.

As someone else has said, the Vectored thrust on the Raptor does give it a bit of an advantage. But The Raptor relies more on it's abitlity to be less "visible" than maneouverability to win engagements. I think the Eurofighter is being envisioned as a multi-role fighter (fighter bomber?) rather than a dedicated interceptor/dogfighter, so they might not be too concerned with agility. As t ohow they compare to each other, it's a toss up.

They F22 is more agile then a Eurofighter, the trust weight ratio gives the F22 an advantage over the Eurofighter.

Well, I saw a thing on the TV, that said 5 of the F-15 fighters tried to take an F-22, and they COULDN'T! The F-22 killed all 5 of the F-15's!!

Less agile, but faster, more powerful, and better in every other way.
