The mantra is: Nothing is too good for our boys in combat; that means our
equipment is expensive but also so effective it is the master of the

demonstrated performance is far less. There are many examples of this bad
bargain (extremely high cost for very disappointing performance), but the F-22
is perhaps the pinnacle of the myth.
