 | I would think the F-22 would be the obvious choice ... Kris

| I just mean that the F-35 has always been presented as the cheap solution for those who couldn't afford the F-22. Completely like the F-16 was for the F-15. Kris

The F-16 did offer a cheaper alternative than the F-15 but in reality had a whole different mission as it still does today. Quote:

| The F-22's LO properties are compromised by certain atmospheric conditions, like rain, but it comes nowhere near to stopping it form flying, thats just bollocks. The most advanced aircraft yet produced is probably a tie between the F-22 and the Boeing 787 (if they ever get THAT to fly) You should not rely on newspapers for technical insight.

| The rain disrupts the skin of the plane. Try this place... IGN Boards - Can an F-22 fly in the rain? |
