F-15I's don't HAVE stealth capability.

There is passive stealth and active stealth. They aren't passively stealth. Now radars can only see what they are programed to see. If the actual return is masked be an overpowering false return which does not meet the threshold criteria, the radar may show nothing. The radar operator wouldn't even know its happening.

I imagine they keep it turned off most of the time. You keep that joker lit up and you may get a HARM enema for your troubles.

That’s not stealth, that’s jamming.
