2) Is it a fact that the F-35 and F-22 are superior and currently the most important fighter jets?
3) Does any of the listed aircraft have internal weapons bay?
The F-35 and F-22 have stealth technology, high maximum take-off weight, and internal weapons bay.
Well my opinion is that while the F-22 & 35 have stealth they are over priced and while classified as 5 th generation the F-22 first flew in 1991. Both are over expensive and are only suited for Air to Air combat which makes then not really viable for the conflicts we have been currently fighting in. Reason being there are few Air forces say for the Russians, China and India that are capable of fielding an Air Force that could fight well against the US and its Allies.
All but 2 of the aircraft here can carry bombs. The 2 that can not are the Mig-25 & 31. Of the aircraft you list here the rest can carry both Air to Air and Air to Ground weapons though the Su's are more Air to Air but can be used as both. The Mig-25 and 31 are straight line Interceptors only and not close range fighters.
As for Internal weapons bay no only the F-22 & 35 have a weapons bay the rest listed have external hard points on the wings and fuselage. This is whats make th F-22 & 35 stealthily. One point just because a plane has stealth doesn't make it superior to other fighters. During Kosavo 1999 an F-117 was downed by a Serbian Surface ot Air Missile and the F-117 is supposed to be invisible? So don't count on Your stealth alone to be what makes a great fighter. Pilot's training and the aircraft next are what makes the plane what it's worth.
The US Air Force will soon have 2 Su-27's in it's hands as the US governmnet bought 2 from the Urkraine to evalulte and find out what makes this one the Worlds best fighters to date. Then we will be able to see if the F-22 & 35 were worth the Billions spent on makeing them.
