I think that will be LRIP 8.

Long-lead items need to added to Fy2013 and production to begin in FY2014 (LRIP8) for delivery in FY2016.

The ONLY Stealth plane is a wooden sailplane.

All the rest is sales bla-bla-bla to get dollars for some "hype" paint that "THEY" say that "WE" need.

I can see a sailplane with my bare eyes just fine, so that hardly qualifies as stealth! In fact, if you were to make an airplane the size of an atom I could STILL detect it with an electron microscope, so that wouldn't be stealth EITHER!
