  1. Kinda pointless First high off-boresight weapons like the AIM-9X, Python-5 and IRIS-T are extremely maneuverability and easily out maneuver any aircraft The newer generation of BVR missile also incorporate better maneuverability to deal with aircraft with high maneuverability Second Modern SAM sites like the S-500 can engage aircraft from over 310 miles away whereas stealth aircraft can get inside the S-500 range More to point, radar resolution over the years greatly improved making it easier to see non stealth aircraft at longer ranges There is whole list reason why that pointless but there are some counter points The development of hypersonic weapons Hypersonic weapons combined with advanced electronic jamming can defeat the S-500 But you still need stealthy aircraft to deal with enemy fighters so the EW aircraft and aircraft carrying hypersonic weapons can focus on the site and not have to worry about being shot down Systems like the Panstir S1 and Tunguska can be problem for non stealth aircraft In the end Stealth just has all the advantages needs for modern warfare

  2. Not exactly correct. In the past , the go to weapon was 500lbs GBU. 500lbs was the all purpose weapon. The GBU-39 and GBU-53 replace the 500lbs in that role An F-35 and F-22 can carry 8 GBU-39/53s and be just as effective an F-16. The F-22 and F-35s are limited by the size of their weapons bay in stealth but the US, UK and Israel are all making small and light but lethal weapons to increase the stealth aircraft payload while in stealth The USAF Small Advanced Capabilities Missile program aims to triple the amount of weapons aircraft can carry while in stealth
