WASHINGTON (Reuters) - Four advanced U.S. F-22 fighter jets arrived in Germany on Friday for the jet's first-ever training deployment to Europe, where they will train with allied air forces and U.S. services through mid-September, the U.S. Air Force said in a statement.

General Frank Gorenc, commander of U.S. air forces in Europe and Africa, said the inaugural training deployment was "the perfect opportunity" for the radar-evading fighter jets to train alongside other U.S. aircraft and those of key allies.
