All US bombers (F-117, B-2 and I am sure the future ones) are clearly visible to Russian and Czechoslovakian (Tesla) made radars. Sukhoi fighters could employ stealth by stopping in the air - that's just as far as stealth goes. Su-27 and MiG-29 families aircraft outmaneuvers any modern US aircraft at least three times. If you'd like to say there will be no dog-fight in the future - I hope not but we'll have to to see. Sukhoi fighters successfully penetrated Kitty-Hawk's defense, won the Indian training (9:1) and God knows what else they could do. So, I feel really bad paying for the US fighter development as a taxpayer so far as we are producing last generation fighters relying on technology that exist somewhere else, not in a real World.

While to a very technical level that bolded statement is true, (i.e. an F117 will appear as a object about the size of a large bird on a radar screen, it is a highly self-deceiving thought.
