However, any country that has the money to buy the F-22s will probably have the infrastructure to support them too.
The best to get a bombing attack past 4 F-22s is to use 50 J-10s. You'll lose over 32 of them, but at least 4-5 will pull through...  |
OK dude, wait a second...what data do you have that says F-22's can't fight alone well? They can fight plenty well by themselves...and their datalink is optimized at just that. The fuel issue - yes of course...like every fighter out there you obviously need tanker support. But to say F-22's can't fight well by themselves is highly bold or ignorant, or both - and I'm here to tell you that's plain incorrect.
