@CriticalThought has raised a good point, and based on what I understood, and what I had been thinking over this weekend. I came up with following chart.
What I understood @CriticalThought point to be questions / objectives in "1" and "2", in order to achieve those goals in these steps, then we need to specify aircraft performance and low-observability requirements (based upon current and projected SAM, AWACS, Ground Detection capabilities, etc) in "3a" and "3b". These requirements then feed into what the tactical requirements, and how the impact of aircraft design might look like.
I will follow up with a detailed post regarding what/when/why/how/which on the engine discussion, but crux of the matter is that aircraft need highly reliable engine(s) with adequate thrust capability:
Reliable --> Matellurgy plays crucial role
Adequate Thrust Capability --> Materllurgy plays crucial role
I'll keep drafting that post, but let's get thoughts going on the following flow-chart.
