Not so much. The F-22 cannot replace the F-35 in either the Navy or Marine role, and it cannot fully replace the F-35 in the ground attack role.
Everybody seems to have forgotten how troubled the F-22 program was and still is. The F-22 doesn't even have a helmet mounted cueing system. It is a fantastic Air Show aircraft, however.
The Chaparral and Vulcan platoons that I commanded as an Air Defense Artillery officer were deactivated at least 15 years ago. The human body isn't meant to withstand 8G maneuvers that modern fighters are capable of.
The F-22 shooting flares is not the ‘answer.’ That plane is an air-superiority fighter, not a bomber, not a Close Air Support fighter.
The poor F-22, killed shortly after birth, still does not have the 40 year old tech that most other fighters are equipped with: a heads up helmet display, and only recently got an Air-to-Air missile with a range that is equivalent to the common ones found on various Russian fighter models.
The trouble with the F-35 is that too many cooks got into the kitchen when they were making the soup and seem to have produced something like a Wegu steak soup with a salad (complete with dressing) mixed in for good measure.
As things stand now, the plane is essentially three planes due to the many different requirements - instead of the single plane for all with interchangeable parts.
