Yah and its the driving motivation for the F22 and future UCAV projects.

Its why many countries are re thinking F35 realizing it would take a large inventory of F35 to go up against Su 30-39 line up without significant loses. China already has the export versions along with a number of other countries in the region. Australia wants the F22 instead of the F35 sighting it would be more effective and economical to go with the F22.

Its everyones hope that the Russian Ionized Stealth Technology doesn't become successful as this could give SU-30-39 owners a leap forward since their inventory cost so much less allowing them to play a numbers game and greatly reducing the F22 in theater advantage.

It would be cool to see how the 22 verses the 30 & 37 faired in close in combat (dog fighting) as they did with the Mig and the Hornet. It generally believed that it would be more than a hand full for F15 front line inventory.

Lets hope no one tries to test it for real.
