“Considering the performance of Russian air defense vs Ukraine, it would be an absolute circus against a modern air force with stealth fighters”
There was a post earlier, that Israel recently flew some F-35 sorties through Russian Air Defenses in Syria, undetected. F-35As are now certified to carry B61-12 nuclear weapons as well.
If Ukraine aid gets approved through Congress soon, Russia might not have much Air Defense at all left standing, when this show is over.

There were many many sorties - maybe several a week attacking various Hezbollah and IRG targets.
