did you nkow that soon this stealth will be NOTHING!!!
because yugalsovya, Russia, austriala, etc.
already built or are building a anti-stealth radars...

Yes But I'm sure there Upgraded by now ! also the ''stealth'' you refer to is 15+ years old and there just now able to detect them plz post a link to the anti stealth radar site .
Also what is there basis tested on have they located and shot down a 22 or something

All I have to say is I've flown the SU-37, and I've flown the F-22. Granted, they were in Ace Combat 4, but I'm going to over look that for the sake of this arguement. The F-22 is my prefered weapon of choice, not because of it's heritage (Who the hell is going to know what I fly on my PS2?) but because it handles a LOT better, and has a better armament.

I'd just like to mention here that the F-117, in all accounts by pilots and the like, flys like shyte. If it gets targeted by a V2 missle, it's going down. The F-22 compensates for that by having the capability of evading the missile in the unlikely event it gets targeted.

Russia is currently playing around with PLASMA STEALTH!

Research team of the Recearch Center named after M.V. Keldysh has developed new technologies allowing dramatic decrease in aircrafts' radar observability.
Russian approach to low observability (LO) technologies is completely different from US Stealth and offers complete furtiveness of the protected object at a significantly lower price.
An exclusive interview about these technologies was conducted by Nicolai Novichkov, ITAR-TASS with director of the Center, academic of Russian Scientific Academy Anatoliy Korteev.
As academic explained, American approach to LO (Stealth technology) applied on B-2, F-117A, and fifth generation fighter F-22 "Raptor" is based on the following principles.
The airframes of these aircrafts are designed to minimize their radar cross section (RCS), avoid all possible elements of the structure, which could reflect electromagnetic radiation.
In order to minimize reflected radiation radio absorbing materials (RAM) are also applied to the surface of the structure. The main drawbacks of the Stealth technology are its negative effects on the flight and agility characteristics of the stealth aircrafts.
Russian scientists approach the issue from the other direction. They proposed to create a plasma formation around protected object, which prevents radars from seeing it.
Thus,aerodynamical characteristics of the plane itself do not suffer. Without interfereing with technical characteristics the artificially created plasma cloud surrounding the plane guarantees more than hundred times decrease in its observability.
The physics of plasma protection can be described as following. If an object is surrounded by a cloud of plasma, several phenomenas are observed when the cloud interacts with electromagnetic waves radiated by enemy radar.
First, an absorption of electromagnetic energy occurs in the cloud, since during plasma penetration it interacts with plasma charged particles, pass onto them a portion of its energy, and fades.
Second, due to specific physical processes, electromagnetic wave tends to pass around plasma cloud. Both of these phenomenas results in dramatic decrease of the reflected signal.
Static and flight experiments proved the effectiveness of this technology. The first generation devices, producing plasma field surrounding an aircraft and decreasing reflected signal were created in the Center. Later, a possibily of creating second generation advanced systems (capable of not only decreasing reflected signal and changing its wavelength, but also producing some false signals) was discovered.
Such systems significantly complicate determination of actual aircraft's speed, its location and leads to development of completely new approaches to LO provision, unachievable to conventional Stealth technology.
Furthermore, the weight of the systems developed in Russia do not exeed 100 kg, and power consumption ranges from kilowatts to tens of kilowatts.
Advances in development of the third generation LO systems allowed to clear the systems of first and second generation for export, commented academic Anatoliy Korteev.
sorry for post this whole article with no link...
i just got it from my puter not internet...
so i have no link...

There are a couple of problems I see if this is accurate. Not to doubt you, but the story. If the Russians have developed this technology, and have tested it, they have made some incredible leaps in mettulergy. Plasma burns at such a high temperature that no man known (that I know of) material can tolerate more than 30 seconds of exposure without being incinerated. If they have this, the US has a big problem, because not only are they stealth, but they are missle proof, and laser proof. The only way to penetrate their armor is through kinnetic weapons, and even those, with that kind of armor, who knows.
The other option would be force fields. Unfortunatelly, I don't know enough on the real world technology to be able to comment. I only know star trek tech from the Star Trek: The Next Generation Technical Manual, which is dubious, to say the least. If the russians have developed this, wow. You guys just revolutionized...well, everything! Kudos!

I also thing ALOT of people are tryed of debating the 22!!!!!
ITS A #EN OLD TOPIC!!!!! IT WAS DEBATE LIKE 100 TIMES!!!!
"F22 and Comanchie Are untouchable"
Theres nothing like good old base attack..
That is if this what are you claim would be true,
But it isnt..
So like Russian said:
STFU!
