The real question is can the F-35 -bomber- operate in an S-400 environment in a general war.

That may come down to if the S-400 is properly maintained, and I seriously doubt they will be properly maintained.

Well, the F-35 has some questions about its operational capability even outside of hostile peer or near peer airspace...

What a refreshing post. Someone who 1) asks a question rather than declare a 'truth' that implies any who disagree are stupid/wrong/ignorant, and 2) asks the right question.
A P-47 (or the A-10) might be the absolutely best aircraft in history to fight against Afghan irregular troops, but there are a lot of aircraft that can fight in that environment. Not many can survive in a peer or near-peer threat environment.
