That's a stretch. I guess it depends on how you define "dependent". If an enemy could completely cut all communications would F-22 fall out of the sky? No. At least not until it ran out of fuel. Could it get back to base? Sure. Command gonna send $180 million aircraft back up without a com link? Duh?
I think it was some F-35s which had to fly back blind after they had a computer glitch crossing the international date line, but I could be wrong about that.
I doubt you would send a plane UP without comms, unless of course you were in the middle of world war 3 and the comms had been knocked out and you wanted to stop enemy planes from invading our airspace.
Then you would feel bad about having so few planes in the arsenal that were able to defend the country.
But if you sent a plane out to hit an enemy base, and when you approached the base the enemy jammed communication, I’d rather have pilots in planes to finish the mission, rather than hope the now-disabled UAVs happened to crash and explode where we needed them to.
