The F-22's role isn't close air support. That's supposed to be the job of the F-35 JSF.

That is true.

But can the JSF provide the clean skies they need in order to support the troops? Maybe the Marine wouldn't be aware of the F22, but the F22 is going to lay the battlefield foundation of clean skies.
