For example, mounting weapons externally will cause the SAM radars to track the plane more easily, with switching the radar on will significantly increase the ground radar's tracking range. While the game is not developed as a full-fledged simulator, it has included the "emcon" issues. Due to the stealth capabilities of the F-22, the player rarely needs to worry about their plane's radar signature. F-22 Lightning 3 features a host of real life weaponry such as AMRAAM missiles, Sidewinders, 20 mm Vulcan Gatling gun, HARMs, JDAMs, various types of iron bombs, and the B61 10-kiloton tactical thermonuclear free-fall bomb.

The third game itself is not so much an all-out simulation but a combat flying game for the masses whose gameplay is easier to access than some of its rivals such as the Falcon series or games from Digital Integration. This has later been explained by NovaLogic since they never intended a 'hard core' military flight simulator, but an easily approachable multiplayer software. F-22 Lightning 3 also failed to come close to the physics modeling shown in DiD's F-22 ADF released 2 years earlier. By 1999, the games release date, the USAF had officially called the F22 the Raptor. In Lightning 2 and Lightning 3, the aircraft is named Lightning II instead of the correct designation Raptor. It was released for DOS and was much more detailed in comparison to contemporary combat flight simulators like Jane's US Navy Fighters. Its minimum requirements were 486/100 MHz or equivalent CPU, 8 MB RAM and 35 MB hard drive space. Predecessor F-22 Lightning II was released in September 30, 1996. The makers gained legitimacy by Lockheed Martin sanctioning their product, the actual makers of the real-life F-22 fighter. The third game of the series was released on and was successor of earlier game F-22 Lightning II (released in 1996), for the time, both games displayed very realistic graphics and some physics of flying a plane. It is based on the F-22 Raptor produced by Lockheed Martin. F-22 is a series of combat flight simulation computer games from NovaLogic, produced only for the PC.
