Let’s be serious, F-22 is not total stealth, and F-35 is even less, I think all this Israel f-35 story is more of psychological war so Arabs keep thinking Israel cant be beaten.
the Americans are only getting the plane in 2015, Israel would have 25 units between 2016 and 2020, and are these units going to make a difference in a war time? I don’t think so.
I would take su-30 or su-35 over F-35 any day
PS: for this stealth issue, you need to know there are two type of radars, passive and active and when you’re attacking a target you need an active radar, and you cant be invisible to a radar while you are using an active radar, it’s a same in anti submarine warefar.
F-22 is more of a hype and F-35 is more of a bullshit
