Yes, I'd much rather have my tax dollars going toward that than another air superiority fighter that: A. Doesn't work and B. Wouldn't be used because most of our military engagements are against groups without air forces.
Shockingly the military isn’t the reason we cant have the other things we want, it’s because we don’t make everyone pay their fair share.
Also while it’s unpopular the f22 project did push the envelope for technology and that money wasn’t just burned, the f22 is still quite the technological achievement and even failures result in significant research and development
What non-military technologies have come out of developing the F-22?
Well it's sensor fusion technology has been the blue print for every machine intended to "make its own decision" in terms of where it goes, and what functions it uses. The sensor tech created have lead to a bunch of significant increases in a number of tracking technologies, everything from optically informed triggers and movement, improvements in camera, and display tech, and a large array of sensors using a lot of other means of sensing things, such as EM fields/projection. The air frame has informed the development of more efficient commercial aircraft. Developments in HUD/AR displays have a lot to thank from the tech developed for the F-22's pilot information systems. All sorts of different user interface tech was influenced by things developed for it.
A whole lot of what many industries have been doing draws from stuff developed for the system. So-much-so that congress made an amendment that specifically blocked the sale of the F-22 and its associated sub-systems.
Fair enough
That’s classified
