I don't own this space under my name. I should have leased it while I still could

WW, why no SoF? A Reaper orbiting covertly above a target can bring rapid retribution but its presence is largely covert. There will be occasions when you want to reveal part of your hand, the surprise appearance of a threat can do just that.

however in a 'benign' environment you may not deploy an F35 at all when a Typhoon can do all the missions as effectively.
