It's also worth pointing out that the Red Hats/Eagles can very cheaply borrow flying time on MiG-29s/Su-27s in service with our new East European allies (Bulgaria, Ukraine, Poland, etc). No need to have a fleet of secret planes anymore. Of course, I'm thinking like a cost-conscious taxpayer, which is not a good mindset for predicting DoD operations...

I do recall that USAF bought some 10-15 MiG-29s from Moldova about 15 years back and only a few of them could be publicly accounted for at Wright-Patterson....
