1. The stealth bomber is the B-2. The F-35 is not a bomber by any stretch of the imagination. It is, however, an aircraft that can carry weapons. I invite you to check out the F-35 Cancellation thread in this very sub forum for detailed discussion on how many bombs can be carried in stealth mode by an F-35. (So far, not much of a load).
2. Why indeed send strike aircraft over Iranian airspace? I won't offer to answer that question for two reasons: (a) it was a rhetorical question (b) others have provided some answers.
3. Rhetorical question for you: did they really send a few over, or is this whole thing OPDEC? (Or is it even a simple wind up?).
