I agree....
Get new planes.
People and the MSM can cry all they want, but these birds have exceeded their structural lifetimes.
Its a shame that the industrial/military complex has created a situation where their every move is suspicious....and we let that happen.
But the reality is, the F22 took too long to develop and cost way too much....the Air Force can hold the blame for that.
But the big question is-—
Can these aircraft be repaired?
Maybe....maybe not.
There is no question that they CAN be repaired! The question is..., at what cost and will it be worthwhile when amortized over the remaining service life of the aircraft!
But a lot of the F-22 capabilities except for the flight envleope and stealth could be put into F-15's. Just look at how the Russians have updated their MiG-29 with vectored thrust engines and improved avionics to created the MiG-35. It wouldn't have been any cheaper to develop those technologies, but they wouldn't have lumped all into the F-22 program.
