The F-22 isn’t supposed to be a full stealth aircraft, is it?

My understanding is that it’s supposed to greatly diminish detection and isolation range, and impede target lock - while being a full maneuverability fighter.

Is that wrong?

Technology keeps jumping back and forth—it never stays still—EVER!
“Stealth” is just the latest idea—it has about run its course.
Get back to speed, maneuver, weaponry, range, acceleration, etc...
