It hasn't
seen battle yet (and I hope it doesn't have to) but I'm a little worried
about the fact that it's beaten (badly) in simulations and exercises with
much older fighter aircraft with much more "primitive" tech, including
Russian aircraft, too.
Oh, just to add more, the F35 is not a "fighter" despite its
designation. It is an air superiority platform that is
never supposed to get into a dogfight. It is supposed to be
in a network of planes, and agressors will be shot down by
missile from 50 miles away. The F22 is supposed to be the
dogfighter.
