I was going to make a new post. However, I thought this news should go here..
Not sure on how old this is BTW..
CNN is reporting that 435 F15's are to be modified;
Air Force investing $12B in F-15s - CNNPolitics.com
But isn't the idea of 'stealth' and particularly the F35 - is to see the enemy before they can see you? And its been said, that as you (the enemy), can see it, you're already dead?
So how important is it to have a dog-fighting plane in todays Gen 5,6 world?
