No, the Slammer Missile is defiitely not 100%. Lt Col Mike 'Dozer' Showers used three Slammers to kill a MiG-29 over the Blakans. You Tube interview -URL;

The F-35 is designed for the attack mission on day one of a major war! I can handle itself in air to air but, its strength is air to ground. Maneuvering wised, it can outperform the F-16C Blk #50 or F/A-18C in every major parameter.

About three F-35's for a single F-22A. Their ground attack missions are entirely different. The F-22 will replace the F-117 in ground attack, killing headquarters, air defense hubs and, other high value strategic targets. The F-35 will kill tactical targets.
