That is a great idea, and one of the reasons I love Free Republic. Great minds are here. Thanks!
And he had the F-22 production cut down to 181, severely limiting its full capability.
I am not an aeronautical engineer, just Electrical.
But my father was a pilot, my uncle and instructor, and I was flying a plane (no, not taking off or landing) before I could drive a car.
No way a plane with no vertical stabilzer could jig & jag with modern fighters without one (or two). Even with thrust-vectoring. As most modern fighters have that as well.
IMHO.
I just saw this video & thought I would share:
