funny thing is F-35 could have done exactly same but better in this specific scenario due to its more advanced sensors including passive IRST - where F-22 flies totally blind F-35 would still have at least some situational awareness. Flight perfrormance didnt matter as he flew subsonic whole time and fired only 4 missiles which is standard payload for F-35A and newer ones should be getting the upgrade to 6

This is legit NEXT LEVEL piloting competency. The fact that you thought to (avoiding spoilers here) create yourself a radar "disguise", let alone the way you did it AND the choice you made to do (or not to do, rather) at the end, was all just on a whole different level of air combat skill. It's one thing to "git gud" at a sim like DCS, getting more kills in a single sortie than most real life pilots get in a career, but there's quite a lot of DCS players who can pull that off easily enough. But again, the opportunity that was presented to you would have most likely been overlooked by almost all of the best DCS players. It really brings to light just how much you're thinking of everything at once - your situational awareness, your enemy's situational awareness, what your enemy is going to soon be able to see when you finally announce your presence, and on top of all that, forward-thinking of ways to give yourself the best advantage, your enemy's the most disadvantage, and even confuse the absolute hell out of them. Brilliant. We really need some input from @MaxAfterburnerusa on this one!
