Flight control computer but I don't think it keeps a record while it's flying the plane. All they'll have to go on is the wingman's debrief and condition of the plane after the crash. If it exploded into bits it'll probably just be conjecture of what caused the crash.

They should have flight data recorders . . . at least the F-16’s did so I would guess they F-22’s do too but I left General Dynamics shortly after the A-12 was canceled.

Lockheed invented the “black box” I'd be surprised if there was not one on the F-22.
