Is the F-35 the best BVR fighter in the world right now?

f-22 might be better, but anyone who knows for sure isn't allowed to say

I'll wait to see it IN SERVICE because the JSF turd was supposed to have it integrated and in service +5 years ago.

I'd argue the F-22 is still better because of supercruise but F-35 is now a real A2A threat.

They've been "working" on integrating the Meteor for WAY too long. I'm starting to suspect bad faith by the integration group, whatever their name is.

Why do we have missiles drop out of the bottom, why don't they plop out of the ass instead?
Like sci-fi style, missile rolls out the back, ignites, and goes on its way? Internal rotary magazine of AMRAAMs and AIM-9Xs?

The F-35 is a strike fighter with limited self defence capability, it lacks the kinetic performance for credible BVR performance. It can neither reach the speeds, nor the altitude, to impart competitive starting energy to the missile.
Not even a meteor can make up for that.

At the risk of derailing this thread, how hard will it be for the South Koreans to add an IWB to the KF-21?

I know just the plane to counter it (by forcing it to stall at low altitude trying to intercept it)
