The F-22 cost $138 million. F-35 is down to $70 million. The US only bought 200 F-22, they aren’t being made anymore, and they are needing replacement in decade. That doesn’t help with the thousands of other fighters that need replacement.

Name “other similarly stealthy” aircraft. All our allies are buying F-35 because it is the only affordable, good stealthy fighter available.
