Jose- Looking at what an F/A-22 (single seater) and a B-2 (twin-seater)

can
do, I
find it harder and harder to justify a thing like an F/A-18F. BRBR

But how ya gonna get that thing to sit off a coastline, no friendly

airbase w/i
1000 miles and 'rattle the saber'???

Geeezzz, a squadron of B-2s(6) cost the same as a CV and airwing.

Not to mention Show the flag, and project power... How does a stealh bomber
show the flag,
If you don't know it is there how does it project power? Oh How many months
can the B-2 remain on station Ready to answer the bell.
