F-22 and F-35 were both deployed in Afghanistan and Iraq. The F-117 wasn’t a fighter and never engaged in air-to-air combat (because it couldn’t, it was subsonic had poor maneuverability and no active radar) so the F-22 and F-35 both meet the same standard that you are using for “combat” with the F-117.
I meant combat against a competent foe with air defense or fighter capabilities. Airstriking some Taliban in the desert isn’t exactly flexing your stealth that much
F-117 did have radar, it also could carry AIM-9 Sidewinders internally. They trained pilots of 117s to take out AWAC planes… I flew with pilots who trained as such.
Just more bullshit from the internet “know it all.”
If you’re going to try to harass me, you should make sure you aren’t botching your comments. You edited your comment so now it looks like you are criticizing your original comment, not anything I said.
