The French ‘Shot Down’ U.S. Stealth Fighter

Lockheed Martin-made F-22 is supposed to be the most fearsome warplane in history, a quarter-billion-dollar-per-plane technological marvel that flies higher and faster than its opponents while avoiding detection by radar. The Pentagon is counting on a tiny number of the pricey Raptors — slightly more than 180 — to ward off potentially much larger numbers of enemy planes for the foreseeable future.

I think he once claim the Chinese built G-23 can defeat F-22 as G is one better than F and 23 is one better than 22

Stealth is a marketing gimmick. Put an F-22 against Russia and it WILL get shot down.
