My mistake, yes I was. Some F-35 did get damaged recently, I assumed it would be another one since it made the top list of hackernews.

It stands peculiar this post wasn't flagged and removed as "politics".

I was being sarcastic, even if another F-35 was shot, why should it go through the strict guidelines.

And another mistake (sorry). The F-22 is more advanced even if it is older.

The F-35 was developed because the US didn't want to export the F-22 tech to other countries.
