Default GIVEN CURRENT WARS, F-35s ARE BETTER CHOICE THAN MORE F-22As

have all the air support you'll need for the ground forces.

Make the hole in the side rather than the bottom. Civilian aircraft
have large cargo holds whose doors are on the side.

The aircraft have sufficient space to carry bombs, missiles and a gun.
