LO,

I remember well "exactly the same song and dance number about the F-22, fifteen years ago", although they probably had more to shout about then. But they didn't talk much about ballistic and medium structural and surface damage then either. One question that springs to mind is the difference between the complexity of repairs to significant damage to composite with mostly applied stealth and LM's new, rather better solution (even though to total RCS isn't as good).

There is a briefing on a similar subject next month, hopefully, so we may learn more.
