the F-35 has the same range and payload as the Stuka (Ju-87). It does have a certain advantage in range and accuracy.

No it doesn't. Stuka range about 300 miles with bombs. F-35 about 1200 miles. Payload Stuka about 1500lbs max. F-35 up to 4,000lbs. How long will it take you to drive the Volt from New Orleans to Atlanta? Stopping about every 35 miles to “refuel”. And “refueling takes about 30 minutes or longer. Start on Monday and you may make Atlanta by Tuesday night.
