Unfortunate but the stealth F-22 production program has been halted by the US due to high development costs. so let us compare it with the conventional and takeoff-landing version of the F-35 instead which has a good chance of being deployed soon. Our reference is the open and free wikipedia.
Here is a side-by-side armchair comparison.
