They bring them into Chennault on occasion and they are loud AF when they vertical land or take off. There’s zero doubt what aircraft is on the runway when you hear them.
well doing a vertical takeoff or landing, i would expect them to be. i was speaking more of just seeing them (or what I thought was them) at cruising speed going overhead. but they were probably 22's.
pretty much unrelated to F-35s and their noise, a great book on the semi-recent history development of some of the most famous fighters we have (A-10, F-14, F-15, F-16, F-18) is a book called "Boyd" by Robert Coram. just a PSA for anyone interested on the topic.

One of the guys in the know can probably correct me if I'm wrong, but if you're on the north shore, I doubt it's an f22. There aren't any stationed anywhere close to Louisiana. 9 times out of 10, it's the f15's in this area. You'll occasionally get an f18, or a trainer. I've never seen f35s here unless for an airshow or their current training.
