The presence of F-22's makes our enemies chit their pants. Although they claim they have "equivalents" they know the reality is that a F22 could fly into Iran, wreck the place, and leave and there is nothing they can do to stop it.

China, Russia, India, Brazil, NATO, and the entire global air force can't do jack sh!t. I recall attending an event that had General Mattis in the summer of 2018, just before he resigned. Someone there asked him about our military's capability, and I remember him saying, "Our military superiority is on another level … think sci fi movies." ill never forget this

lol … what are you talking about …. we already working on a replacement for the F-22/F-35 and that working title is, NGAD (Next Generation Air Dominance). A prototype/concept model that is already seeing action

f 15s have ruled the skies since 1976 with zero being shot down in air to air combat.

Some have been shot down by surface to air missles but not a ton of them.

The f22 is the newest replacement for the f15. nothing will touch these , wont even come close.

Those jets are more a favour for Iran because any flimsy retaliation on Israel would result in an illegal one by the latter and the U.N won't sanction Israel because of U.S veto.

I saw an F-22 flight demonstration at an airshow once… amazing maneuverability with the vectored thrust. Like the thing can just about stop midair, do a 180 and moonwalk the other direction. Looney Tunes style.
