    I agree. Too much input for test pilots who's job is to prove the aircraft's capabilities.

    They kind of glossed over losing simulated battles or contests to some other legacy aircraft. Stealth and info only works until you're spotted, then the old fashioned stuff actually matters again. If your job is to engage the enemy, you're gonna get noticed.

    Israel successfully flew the jet in Syria in what could arguably be said is the most heavily defended airspace on the planet, defended with cutting edge air defense.

    I'm not familiar with Syrian air defense, so I'll have to take your word for it.

    Don’t take my word for it. Stratford, Rand, Aviation Week, and others, there’s a significant amount of reputable resources with hard data.

    One area that airframe shines is advanced passive detection systems. Detecting hostile aircraft at standoff range without the use of radar.

    Crying shame we did not build more Raptors.

    Don't know if if is the most "advanced", but the Raptor is certainly the most capable.
