Yes. This type of aircraft has no place in the modern battlefield and Foreseeable conflicts. The money could be put into more usefull sistems (each unit cost about $235 million for 239 planes) Whats your opinion?

You're wrong.
Did you sign up on 12 Nov just to say that??? If so, you were looking for the DU and made a right turn.

So if we made 235 million of them they would cost $239.00 ea?
Sounds like a deal to me.

It's archaic.
We've had UFO platforms for decades that could wholesale outperform it in a list of ways.
Then there are the more advanced smoke screens that can outperform it.
Besides that, there are the drone smoke screens.
Too much boondoggle and pork barrel in it for this taxpayer.

We could get rid of liberal blood suckers like kerry and save much more than that.

It's a bad plane for a situation like Iraq. But it's an excellent system for a war defending Taiwan against China, or against N Korea.
To: Haro_546
NO. Air forces around the word are advancing in technology and the F22 assures 'Air Dominance.' You may not be able to see air threats at this time, but history tells us that threats not seen today become visible over the horizon.
To: Haro_546
And your expertise on our future battlespace needs would be?
Anyone can have an opinion, but few have an opinion worth paying attention to...

1) Welcome to FR
2) Use spell check when posting
The ability to achieve air superiority is paramount on the modern battlefield. Any technology that achieves this all important goal is beyond normal valuation metrics.
Just ask the dead terrorists in Fallujah about how important air power is.
