Addendum to what I posted above:
Wing area vs MTOW for F-22 vs F-35 and HAL AMCA (provisional) for basic L/D comparison
i.e AMCA closer to ratio of F-22 here.
F-22 MTOW = 38 ton, wing area = 78, wingspan = 13.56, AR = 2.36
F-35 MTOW = 30 ton, wing area = 43, wingspan = 11, AR = 2.81
AMCA* MTOW = 25 ton, wing area = 55, wingspan = 11.13, AR = 2.25
Wave drag reduced by lower AR (supercruise at M 1.5+, given massive wave drag spike at mach 1 region), hence why F-22 AR compared to F-35
i.e F-22 more optimised to supersonic combat, F-35 subsonic and transonic.
