That was quite a read.
Setting aside the the cost issue I wonder if part of the reasoning behind the whole stealth push is not nessecarily the enhanced offensive capability but the fact that if the aircraft is harder to target. It is a better Defense.
May be that statement is not clear enough . Is the over riding goal to protect the PILOT? All military personnel would would fight to reclaim and injuried comrade or even a fallen comrade. Is the expense and effort primarily to put less (wo)men at risk and to provide the ones at risk a better chance?
