After a while, it was the American military experts and NATO allies that admitted this was wrong, all the old parameters were false.
1. F-22/35 is not invisible
The US still uses EA6B and EA18G for jamming, proving that there are no invisible aircraft, because if invisibility is not necessary to maintain invisible jamming aircraft for nothing costly, in the old days EA6B support Support F117, today the EA18G supports the F22 / 35, never the United States get rid of jamming aircraft, if indeed there are stealth aircraft, all interference measures are dropped
2. According to the Canadian deputy minister, the F-35 has a RCS of 0.5m2
This report is by the Honorable MQP, Canada. Julian Fantino, deputy mayor of the Canadian Defense Force, reported the replacement of CF18 and stated that RCS was less than 95% smaller than Gen 4 (CF18)

CF18 = FA18 basic, ie RCS 10m2, F-35 inference has an exact RCS of 0.5m2
Boeing F / A-18's RCS is believed to be in the 10-m2 realm

3. USAF Commanders confirm F-35 stealth (with smaller RCS) than the F-22
Gen. Mike Hostage On The F-35
Both F-22s and F-35s will be spotted at range by low frequency radar. The F-35's cross section is much smaller than the F-22's

During a flight debriefing, Col. Chris Niemi and Maj. Nash Vickers both said a comparison of the radar-absorbing F-35 to its nimble but less stealthy twin-engine F-22 cousin might not reveal the whole story.
Niemi has eight years in the cockpit of an F-22 and is one of the few Air Force pilots who is qualified in both the Raptor and the F-35 Lightning II. He said he wanted to set the record straight on the Lightning II, once and for all. “Many have compared the F-22 to the F-35 but that comparison is unfair. With the F-35 Lightning, this fighter sees better, has more range, and is stealthier than any of its predecessors. This airplane, with its fly by wire technology, is super easy to fly and it has a very linear response.”

an F-22 Raptor might appear as a pea. With the F-35, Lockheed is getting down to pebble size, according to Robert Wallace, senior manager for F-35 flight operations. Wallace, a former chief of low-observability for the US Air Force’s B-2 bomber, says the F-35 has leveraged LO qualities from the bomber – but he could not elaborate on specifics. Pilots will see a more advanced low-observable signature on the F-35 versus the F-22
