Well my country is replacing all the F-16s for F-35s so soon they won't have that choice. I assumed the US would be doing the same but I guess that yeah that might not be the case. Also, a lot of missions they do are interception which don't require stealth at all (they escort Russians out of our airspace by flying right beside them). The times they really do a live fire mission are pretty few and far between.
