__Navy’s__ need to replace its aging


EA-6B Prowler electronic attack aircraft, Lockheed Martin has proposed the
development of a two-seat electronic attack variant of the JSF. Dubbed the
EA-35B, the aircraft could potentially be available by 2015, according to
industry representatives"

speed and stealth?


No, F-22's aren't carrier capably aircraft.
