<< F-22 is the replacement for the aging F-15 in the air superiority role right? >>
Yep...
Which is silly, the F-15 still is perhaps one of the best fighters in the world...
The F-22 is great, but too expensive...
$200 million a plane for the first 10 planes, then $100 million a plane for 282 more of them... And knowing the government, they will somehow cost more than that...
I love new technology, and I love the F-22, great plane... But the F-15 is not out of date... The F-15 was so far ahead of its time, it is still a world class air craft...
