That argument is full of holes. -- HokieJay 03/17/2021 4:15PM

The F22 is stealth too. It was cut for budget reasons. ** -- Kudelski 03/17/2021 4:43PM

Yes, it was too expensive - and unnecessary. -- HokieJay 03/17/2021 4:59PM

Not sure how many on here know what 4th gen stealth means in practice ** -- ColoVT82 03/17/2021 5:57PM

Stealth involves so many aspects of fighter and plane characteristics. -- HokieJay 03/17/2021 10:58PM

F22 and F35 are both 5th generation stealth aircraft. -- VT2001EE 03/17/2021 5:15PM

I mean my source is Lockheed Martin. -- HokieJay 03/17/2021 11:05PM

I didnt even bother to destroy the article. Usual hackjob ** -- ColoVT82 03/17/2021 4:23PM

Seems mass overkill... -- astrohokie 03/17/2021 3:25PM

For now.... -- Freddyburg Hokie 03/17/2021 3:52PM

Think Casio G-shock or Timex? ** -- Vtskier1 03/17/2021 4:16PM

All machines wear out and need to be replaced. Plus, China is restless. ** -- Kudelski 03/17/2021 3:50PM

I'm sorry they killed off the F22 ** -- HokieR 03/17/2021 3:26PM

A solid plane. Wonder what exists behind the black door? ** -- ColoVT82 03/17/2021 3:57PM

Agree, the Zumwalts are another huge waste of money. -- Atlee Hokie 03/18/2021 03:30AM

Biggest waste of tax payer money in history for weapon development. ** -- VT Pez4Life 03/17/2021 3:09PM
