They sure are. Most modern fighters are and you normally don't recognise it until you see them parked next to some golden oldies like a spitfire or, and this makes the point, even a lancaster bomber.
Have a look at this link for more about the Predator:http://www.f22-raptor.com/index.html
The better comparison is to the F-15.
If you think the f-15 is big, have a look at the CF-105 Avro Arrow.http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Avro_ArrowOr the Tupolev Tu-128 Fiddler:http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tupolev_Tu-28
Yeah, it's big. Expensive too. But let's face it - it's the only thing you'd put your money on in a dogfight.
Read the Stevenson's briefhttp://www.cdi.org/pdfs/Stevenson%20F-22%20Brief.pdfhe makes a good argument...enjoy. Its an eye opener.
