Yes but the f35 does not have the power to support the avionics and radar of the F22 thereby limiting its range. The F22 early production models are great and are exceeding the specs. I don't think that it is the same case as the Comanche. With the EU pushing the Euro fighter and The Russians pushing their export market we are going to go up against birds that outclass the F35 or the F15. This business about it being a "Cold war platform" is just the spin from those usual corners that seek to weaken us. Leader edge fighters will be out there. One of the reasons that it took so long is that the Clinton administration sat on it for so long in the 90s. The problem with the Commache was that they took a simple idea and then expanded it into a sort of rotary fighter plane concept, that and the original specs were rather optimistic for the technology of the time. The F22 if a sound long term investment for the next 40 years or so. The Comanche would be too if it lived up to its hype.
"Yes but the f35 does not have the power to support the avionics and radar of the F22 thereby limiting its range."
In this day and age, the shooting platform doesn't need a powerful radar. In fact, it may be the last thing you want. It just turns you into a target. The Eurofighter and Russian exports are nice, but aerial combat is so far beyond the capabilities of the single fighter that no fighter, no matter how capable, will be able to compete with our airpower for the foreseeable future. Even if we never field the F-22 or F-35. Having said that, our F-15's and F-16's are beyond their expected service life. We need a replacement. But the replacement cannot be considered "an Air Force of one".
