Other systems can insure air dominance. The f-22 is just an 235 million dollar pork barrel that will get blown up as soon as it can be used.

US Air Force air dominance relies on a DOCTRINE. Not a weapons platform. B-52, Warthog, F-16.... doesn't matter. We've got a DOCTRINE that works.
Communists can't. It's impossible.
And we do it with brand new aircraft and 50 year old aircraft.... Show me one Backfire Bomber doing yoeman's work today...

The far superior bird is in a hanger somewhere - the F23's the McDonnell built we far more agile, faster, production ready and NEVER DETECTED ON RADAR during the testing phases of the contract.
My big pork project that I'd like to see cancelled is that Osprey, sorry Marines, but that thing is, and has been, a nightmare waiting to happen. I understand the need, but we've got to figure out a better way to get you what you need.
