It's a logical plan, up to a point.

100 jets that can get to the fight and raise a friendly digit to the IADS, which can't see them even with VHF.

75 jets that can stand off at a great distance and throw things that are hard and expensive to shoot down.

But only up to a point. Because then you have 1900 jets that can't get anywhere without a tanker. Speaking of tankers, I'm sure there was supposed to be one around here, 'cos I'm out of gas over the oggin. What happened to the tanker? Oh
