Is stealth technology a meme?

The frequency hopping wouldn't give you a major advantage against stealth. You'd actually get a signal but it would be far less than what you'd see from a conventional aircraft.

Mainly, this is an anti-jamming tech rather than an anti-stealth tench.

>changing frequencies so far due the nature of aesa wont give you any advantage since you can practicly combine the results and create a target

you forgot that aesa radar practicly removed the need to have a decimetric radar eh?

True, and there are ways to tilt things in your favor. Keeping the drones near the controller, for one. This puts inverse square in your favor and lets you use harder to jam techs like infrared.

But don't just throw a fuckton of drones at the enemy like it's Star Wars and you want to bring down the Old Republic. The enemy just needs EW advantage for an instant and you've lost.

>sigh

Go back to tumblr with your effeminate garbage

Nah, that's the only reason AESA can see stealth at all. It's still massively disadvantaged when it comes to detection.

That’s precisely what happened, though.

>F22 born
>out of era plane that's three decades too early to be true
>Two decades later
>F35 spawned
>literally abomination plane inferior than F22
Why shouldn't we invest more in F22 2.0 rather than moneysink F35.
>we need carrier based stealth plane
Just revamped F22 for naval version based on F14

more power equals more power

and yes its exactly this aesa can scan wide narrow upper and lower band at the same time but as i said the main problem is filtering out the noise

Because just because an airplane has steatg doesnt mean it was made for the same job, the f35 is not meant to compete with or replace the f22.
