1991 was 33 years ago. Stealth ain't really a thing anymore. Radar returns aren't how high tech surveillance of enemy aircraft is achieved.
It may work great for kicking sand in the faces of whimpy sand niggers with ww2 era weapons. Doesn't mean shit to a 1st world military armed with an ability to destroy the entire planet 5 times over.
Again, advanced nations do not depend upon radar returns to track enemy aircraft.
If you're attack a 3rd world shithole nation with armament from world War 2, or even the 60's-80's cold war era weapons systems, all good and dandy. Yeah, Mach 1+ golf balls.
But advanced nations use extremely sensitive dopler radar. The F-22 may have radar returns of a golf ball, but it's still taking air that's doing 10-50 knots and forcing it through a jet propulsion system which speeds the air up to Mach 1+ to propel that aircraft forward. Modern technology using satellites and ground systems can detect that. There is no hiding that. Those damn laws of physics.

Or, are nukes not real?

The F-22 Raptor has a radar cross-section of a golf ball to current radar. But it's still a golf-ball traveling at Mach 1+
