    yes the f22 is notable because it’s supersonic, not for any other reason, you definitely know what you’re talking about

    Britain makes one of the most capable air-air tracking systems in the world

    britain regularly engages in friendly war games with the us, and regularly loses the very minute the f22 stops taking handicaps, what is your point?

    the british made starstreak is probably one of the best manpads out there, and against an f22 it may as well be a piss-filled water balloon, because f22s don’t fly low enough for manpads to be effective

    the iron dome isn’t even the theoretical israeli system that would intercept an f22. that would be david’s sling, and i seriously doubt that raytheon, the american company contracted to create it, would be legally permitted to outsource a system that could shoot down the us’s best plane

    i provided 3 better solutions, and you limp-wristedly whined about how other countries in europe exist

        Germany and Finland both make stealth adversary systems. Finland even makes tracking systems that are specifically tailored to supersonic weapons.

        You can’t enforce a “No Fly Zone”

        “omg why are you talking about supersonic capability”
