i've never heard the F35 described as 4+ or 4.5 generation. it is pure 5th generation...5th gen fighters dont have their weapons exposed visibly (like the F16, F15 etc), they're stored internally.

also the J-20 was copied (stolen) from the F22 by the chinese. its definitely 5th gen

It doesn’t have thrust vectoring right? That’s kinda a big deal

Doesn't the su57 carry externally?

I thought I remembered the 35 widely being considered a 4+ type fighter but I guess I stand corrected.

Regardless, aint nobody fielding 5th gen stuff to any effect besides us.
