Air dominance is better insured by better missile/bomb/satellites than by Ultra advance and expensive planes that can be easily destroyed.

Ultra advance and expensive planes that can be easily destroyed.

Uuh no. The F22 won't be easily destroyed in battle.

Do you have a modern day example?

Tell me why and how.... Shouldn't fighters be a part of the overall air dominance?

Are you proposing to do away with all fighters? The F-22 has been scaled back in targeted production runs hasn't it?

I'm trying to learn thus I don't have any bonafides in this area....... However I asked about yours and they are?.......

"Air dominance is better insured by better missile/bomb/satellites than by Ultra advance and expensive planes that can be easily destroyed."

'Air dominance' has to be obtained before it can be insured - 'bombs', 'missiles' and satellites don't seize airspace from the enemy, they work in the relative calm after dominance has been won.

It'll be a long time before we develop unmanned vehicles capable of taking over from a defending air force so that the A-10s of the future can do their thing.

Nice missile mean jack if the jet can't get within range for a shot. . .and, oh by the way. . .see the enemy.

Satellites can see stuff but you have been watching too many Tom Clancy movies if you think satellites can actually track a multi-bogey air-to-air environment.

I was pinged for this thread but I can see you are offering nothing but "feelings" (democrat).

What you will find here on FR, rather than other forums, is a wealth of very experienced and many knowledgeable people with expertise in just about everything. So, if you are so inclined to start a thread that you hope may cause a debate, fine, but you better come armed with facts and experience and logic, not fancy dreams and declarative statements of no value or substance.

I am outta here on this one.
