Military Tungsten Alloy Cube in F-22

Military tungsten alloy cube is usually consisted of W-Ni- Fe or W-Ni- Cu or even W-Ni-Cu-Fe. The most important property for tungsten alloy cube is that small volume with high density, which means it can be used as counterweight for F-22.

F-22 is a single-seat, twin-engine fifth-generation supermaneuverable fighter aircraft that uses stealth technology. It was designed primarily as an air superiority fighter, but has additional capabilities that include ground attack, electronic warfare, and signals intelligence roles. Lockheed Martin Aeronautics is the prime contractor and is responsible for the majority of the airframe, weapon systems and final assembly of the F-22. Program partner Boeing Defense, Space & Security provides the wings, aft fuselage, avionics integration, and training systems.

The space for counterweight in F-22 is limited. That requires counterweight must reduce its weight significantly. Military tungsten alloy cube has high weight but small value. So it is ideal counterweight for F-22.
