A new generation would likely also include thrust vectoring like on the F-22.

Eh. Maybe. You get a load of weight in exchange for one good high AOA turn, and then you're slow.

If you don't kill the bandit here and there, or if there's another, you're done.

Seems great in 1v1 merges, while abetter twr seems better in everything else.

I meant more left/right thrust to control yaw without sacrificing your stealthy edges, not necessarily the full f-22 capabilities. Ie, not needing to actuate control surfaces on the wings (or minimize the need), in the context of not having a vertical stabilizer.

Iirc, the B-2 has to "hide" certain control surfaces momentarily when getting pulsed with radar.
