On more modern stealth... and the F-35s' stealth isn't even as good as the F-22s':.[/I]
There is none. Besides, they serve different roles and from my understanding the F-35 was never intended to be as stealthy as the F-22. If that's true it'd be like whining about a Civic not keeping up with a Corvette on a road course... kind of pointless.Where’s the substantiation for this statement?

Which is why you can bet that what I claimed is fact. Also, why else would there be any recent discussion at all about reopening the F-22 production line (far too expensive; tooling was supposedly disposed of) if that weren't true?Besides, they serve different roles and from my understanding the F-35 was never intended to be as stealthy as the F-22.
They weren't the source of the overflight claim. Also, on the "mysterious" anti-Iranian-backed force strikes in Iraq that have been occurring over the past year that weren't carried out by the US and were not ballistic missile attacks, what do you think my have been carrying those out? The US MQ-9 which is allowed to be flown over Iraq is not stealth and neither is the Israelis' home-grown equivalent which would not be allowed to fly over Iraq. So, what carried out those strikes?These national interest articles are no better than something you'd read on TMZ.
Did everyone get the significance of that number? That along with the other info I've included here gives a hint to the probable reason for the apparently successful conclusion of recent news events.Hill AFB, UT exercise of 6 Jan 2020. Elephant walk of 52 F-35s...
Then why phrase it as "isn't even as good" like it's some surprise that it's fallen short?Which is why you can bet that what I claimed is fact. Also, why else would there be any recent discussion at all about reopening the F-22 production line (far too expensive; tooling was supposedly disposed of) if that weren't true?
The POINT was that if "even" the F-35 can evade detection while it doesn't even have as good stealth as the F-22, we and our allies are sitting pretty with our "2nd best" stealth plane.Then why phrase it as "isn't even as good" like it's some surprise that it's fallen short?
