Politics screw everything up. That's life and most likely will be the end of life.

Forget navalizing the F-22. It would be cheaper to build something from scratch.

Forget a 5th generation Naval ATF, it won't happen. Apart from the JSF, the USN will be skipping a generation of air power in that respect. Until the rest of the world starts to truly catch up with US maritime-air power, the USN can, and most likely will, have to make do with the Super Hornet and JSF.
