F35 is designed to be a multirole fighter-bomber, it's a jack of all trades, but has some serious tradeoffs in stealth and maneuverability. And before you go off (rightfully) about how dogfighting is mostly irrelevant in the modern age, manuverability is also how you crank to avoid missiles at long range.

The F22 can take on multiple F35s at the same time and smoke 'em.

Any particular reason coming to mind that the FAA won't ground it?
