An F-35 would lose a one turn dogfight to an F-16. Against an F-15, it’d lose a one turn or two turn dogfight. But the F-35 should never be in a dogfight, because even though it isn’t quite as stealthy as the F-22, the best F-15 radar can only detect an F-35 within about 18 miles. The problem is that the F-35 can detect the F-15 at 100 miles and lob an AMRAAM from 60-80 miles.

They are using medium range munitions that let them stay far enough away from Iranian radar while still doing precision strikes. But they don't have any good targeting data it seems, and the situation at regional air bases seems unpredictable
