In a previous article, "Jay Honeck" said:
Didn't matter. One by one, the Raptor shot them ALL down. In post sortie
interviews the F-15 pilots said they never even SAW the Raptor, visually or
with radar. All they knew is that they were suddenly dead.


A poster on rec.aviation.military was involved with the YF-23 project, and
they had similar experience in their simulations. The enemy just never
saw them before they blew up, even if their wingman blew up first.

I'm not sure if this is a good or a bad thing.
Probably a bad thing; most things are bad things.
