Hence why they market them around the world.

Unlike Treaties, people actually care about the Constitution.
Let me give you a lesson in reality, if a treaty is not in the interests of the United States it will be ripped apart and used for toilet paper.
we don't need F-22s to fight Russia and China.
So what do you gain from this expensive toy that you couldn't have with an F-16?
You can't say the S-400 is 'better' than the F-22. The F-22 is a freaking plane, the S-400 is an AA unit.
Are we absolutely sure that the Growler can intercept and destroy a B-2 Spirit?
How well would a Growler do against a barrage of several hundred cruise missiles fired from offshore?
AA missile systems. When you fire your missile at an aircraft, you have essentially unleashed a a flying bomb with far more speed and maneuvrability than any manned aircraft can hope to achieve, and it will be a one sided affair. Countermeasures are easily thwarted considering these missiles are guided not just by computer but by humans on the ground.
The AA missle System can be attacked you know
With what? If you mean cruise missiles, then how do you suppose their launch platforms will get within range before being attacked themselves?Russia for example has no shortage of missile systems, it's their primary coastal detterent. Anti-ship missiles are the standard and those based on land have far longer range and are far greater in number than cruise missiles carried on ships. A carrier fleet approaching the coast is a sitting duck, it is why carrier task forces are not designated to securing the coast, they must keep away as they become too vulnerable. They are designed to defend shipping on the high seas. Only against defenseless third world militaries are they used offensively to project power.
Presumably , since it was designed to shoot down all aircraft, current and with a fair bit of future proofing.
Growler can intercept and shoot down enemy missiles.
Russia has more missile systems than all of nato combined.
And how many working, modern aircraft?
