Well - you can be scoff at his comments - but he is correct. The F22 is in a class by itself - there is nothing in the world right now that can touch it (or see it!)

You did hear that we’ve retired the F117?? Well - the F22 can do everything it could do better in the bomber department, and as a fighter -well - here is a clue to one tactic used.

Two F22’s against a squadron of other fighters. The first hangs WAY back - maybe 50-75 miles back. It transmit’s it’s radar picture to the other completely stealthy F22. Both have a full radar picture of the on-coming competition - but the competition can’t see the forward attacker. What do you call that? (I call it not-fair - which is the way I want my country to go to war!)

My last post should have been addressed to MARKUSPRIME - not yourself. Sorry about the incorrect attribution.
