    And i think the f35 has a 20 m&m Vulcan cannon so no comparison there, the a10 is the best ground attack plane ever devised @XVIdarkLithium

    @Matthew240 can't beat the f-22 in a dogfight, won't beat the a-10 in a CAS role, no 40mm Gatling gun for CAS

    a friend of mines dad is extensively involved in the development of the f35 and he says its highly underrated because no one has seen what it can do in combat @XVIdarkLithium

    yeah but the f-117 was a about as maneuverable as a bus @XVIdarkLithium

    @Matthew240 the helment alone is 400k, the development 1 trillion, the plane itself is 100m, plagued by glitches and development flaws, the f117 nighthawk/seahawk was so much better for the role, a true stealth jet.

    Yeah that's true but stealth is the future and at the moment it costs one fourth of an f22 so it's a lot more economical @XVIdarkLithium

    @Matthew240 The f-35 won't beat the a-10 in CAS, the f-22 in dogfights, the f-35b barly has enough lift to get off the ground

    I recommend fixing the description to say "replace the F-35A" :), other than that it's awesome
