Even given the current capability briefs concerning F-35, the idea that a retreating aircraft can target a trailing threat, let alone out-range a straight stern shot is ridiculous. F-35 and all its wonders does not change missile kinematics.

Sorry I didn't take the time to see who was claiming that, but it might be reasonable to expect an explanation about how that might work.
