Default RE: China's J-20 Better Than F-22? Well I do not think so

The A-10 is old and outdated, but thankfully the boss types figured out the A-10 had some very good usefulness left in it and now we have the A-10C which is scheduled to stick around for at least another 15 years.

Look at the F-15 for goodness sake, first flight in 1972, and yet it still has the only undefeated A2A record in history 104 a2a kills with no losses in a2a combat (half were Israeli kills, the rest mix of US, Saudi and others)

And the F-15 is scheduled to stay in service until at least 2025 when some of the airframes will be almost 50 years old.


People claiming the F-22 is junk have no clue what they are talking about and know even less about exactly what the F-22 is capable of. Quite frankly its embarrassing.


I'm still waiting to hear why the F-22 is junk.
