@Trumpet_Trouser: wrong side of the Sea of Japan for that joke, since they have a word for rogue samurai (ronin) that kills your joke. Look a little further east.

@KenV
Is an F-22 with an entirely new wing, new engines, and new avionics still an F-22, or even a derivative of an F-22?
Was an F-18 with the same sort of upgrade/mod "actually an F-18?" I refer, of course, to the Super Hornet (E/F) and the mud slinging about it being the same TMS or not, circa the 90's ...
