The F-35 is to the F-22 as the F-16 is to the F-15. General Mike Hostage on F-35; "No Growlers Needed When War Starts" article "The F-35's cross section is much smaller than the F-22". F-35 is not F-117.

  2. Connor MacLeod"Your sole gamble is that other jets cannot detect the F-35" is flawed. From http://breakingdefense.com/2014/06/gen-mike-hostage-on-the-f-35-no-growlers-needed-when-war-starts/3/ General Mike Hostage On The F-35 vs F-16 The F-35, he says, has “at least” the maneuverability and thrust and weight of the F-16. The F-35 is to the F-22 as the F-16 is to the F-15. Typhoon vs F-35 angle of attack. http://www.flightglobal.com/news/articles/in-focus-lockheed-claims-f-35-kinematics-better-than-or-equal-to-typhoon-or-super-382078/ The Typhoon, by comparison, has a 25° AOA limit. In the F-35, Lockheed made the decision to limit the AOA to 50°, but test pilots have flown the aircraft well past that. The high AOA limit gives the F-35 "great" instantaneous turn performance. "We knew that 50°, from our years of research, is about as far as you need to go to take advantage of the aerodynamic performance" of the jet, Flynn says. "There is no reason to be there [at extreme AOA]; you're not going to get much more capability at 75° than you would at 50°." PS; Air Force Reserve Col.
