Ok so ONE F117 in the history 30+ of usage in combat. ONE was shot down, I'll take that any day over some piece of shit chinese copy or Russian copy of the F-22 that was stolen from Northrop. They only got the outside design though, so the radar signature is shit, HUGE compared to a bird size for the F-22. Plus no IR deflection. Apparently they didn't learn a damn thing from our now 40 year old technology.
LOL you're russian right? You would steal every piece of advanced military hardware you could and build the shit out of it. You can't though, or Putin wouldn't be using bear bombers from 1950 to skirt Alaska LOL. The tech is now not cutting edge to US, no. To the Russians and Chinese yeah they still can't build one as good as our now retired 40 year old fleet.
