Russian ground-based 3D Nebo SVU and Chinese ship-borne Type 517M can enable the detection of narrowband stealth aircraft such as the F-35 at greater ranges than previously. Bear in mind though that they wouldn't go into battle alone, standoff jamming support for stealth platforms is standard procedure.

wait till they show Trump the new $21B super carrier, if he can see it
good point on the jamming..looks like F-35 is still effectively stealth?

the advent of powerful, digital active electronically scanned array (AESA) VHF acquisition radars – for example, the Russian ground-based 3D Nebo SVU and Chinese ship-borne Type 517M – enables the detection of narrowband stealth aircraft such as the F-35 at greater ranges. These radars also offer faster and more accurate cueing of engagement radars, enhanced resistance to jamming and – in the case of ground-based systems – significantly improved mobility over their predecessors. Such systems therefore potentially pose a major challenge to the quick establishment of air superiority; however, a smart combination of the F-35’s capabilities along with supporting platforms and systems could allow the JSF to maintain the upper hand.
