What most people picture when asked to think of a "fighter jet"

Always struck me as the under-appreciated workhorse. Not my favorite, but certainly deserves more attention IMO

It does...

But IS it cooler?

The B-2 is over priced, same with the F-22.

I wonder how well that stealth tech actually does.

I spent most of my USAF career attached to a fighter wing that supported an Viper squadron. I love them. Never got an incentive flight in one though. I just like the sleek single engine design. They're so elegant and nimble.
