I believe the YF-22 uses an MSOC (Molecular Sieve Oxygen Concentrator) http://libraryonline.erau.edu/online-fu ... M92-22.pdf" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

EDIT TO ADD: There is some pretty good info on the MSOC and assocaited problems with high altitude and high speed flight here http://aeroden.files.wordpress.com/2011 ... _pep__.pdf" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; (Large file, over 10MB)

Interesting reading. Thanks Keith.
