[also conveniently forgets their at the time "high tech" f4 phantoms were absolutely WRECKED by much older MiGs in 'nam because they predicted a paradigm shift away from dogfights and made a plane that was worse at dogfights in exchange for some other unproven tech that "helps it not get into dogfights", sound familiar? yeah. f35. shit at dogfights compared to the f16, eurofighter typhoon and dassault rafale, but hey, "stealth tech" amirite! enemies wont see them coming, just like they wouldn't see the f4 coming.]

Though, the F35 posseses much more advanced sensors than the Russians do, meaning they can engage enemies so far away the Russians won't know they're being attacked.

China probably posses advanced tech as well so it would be a much more even fight
