I completely disagree. The F22 termination is a good thing, it means the US stops wasting money that could use to other things. There is a "law of diminishing returns" in fighter aircraft that makes improving them extremely expensive. They are also designed by committee, with such expensive things risks are minimized. It is big company thinking versus startups thinking. In a real world those super expensive machines would me destroyed in a minute by UAVs that can accelerate and decelerate 4 to 5 times what any manned vehicle, and are 1000 times less expensive, and could be programmed for doing risky things by Johny the geek.
