Sorry for moving away from your topic.
What he meant is that the F-22 is there to warn Russia that they can't do whatever they want.
The biggest problem in the US military is that the equipment is not created by the needs of the soldiers, but by politicians and business interests.
Also, having four armies and some more national guards and reserve forces doesn't help... did the US Army Corp do anything at all during the last Iraq war? And why the US Navy fighters have groud-strike capability? Isn't that a task for the USAF or the Marine air corps?
