Problem being forward staging. We have 2-3 carrier groups in the Gulf region. And they are chock full of F-18 Super Hornets. I wonder if F-22s will remain staged back for a while until the USAF understands how to maintain them in the field. Remember it was only recently that any airbase in the world outside of the US was certified for B-2 operations.
