You know... There is one thing, that even African militaries do understand, but somehow, US and Nato does not.
You need to make your soldiers look immortal. Even if it was a single squad made for parades and "one of impossible to fail" missions. showing this kind of equipment will recruit many more men, then inflatable tanks.
And yes, I do know, that F-22 did serve that purpose, but it's 26 years old, and has a total kill count of one baloon.
@LukeAlmighty strange to think about F35 like that.

Why is it strange? What else do you expect a $109 million dollars VTOL capable plane to be used for :D
@SuperBobo
Also, there is a 2nd problem, that people aren't naive enough to believe, that they will end up in a plane. ;D
