The F-22 has some classified capabilities that are special, but there is a tremendous amount of overlap in their capabilities. I used to know exactly what they were, but my memory isn't what it was and I wouldn't be able to discuss it here anyway. I do know that the military was amandant that the F-22 would not be offered for foreign sales because of those capabilities.

The JSF is being co-developed (not just coproduced) with foreign partners. The program office got way out ahead of the releasability community. But, without those foreign $$$ it would likely have never been produced. I spent about a year of my life leading a govt/industry team that addressed these releasability issues. And there is some commonality in the technologies with the F-22.
Both systems are highly integrated in a way that has not been done before.
