There are a number of variations on this play. The simple ones are:
1. Stealth (F-35/F-22) squadron keeps taking turns "illuminating" using radar and spot for each other, toggling radar on and off.
2. AWACS / ground-based radar / MIG-31M provides targets and stealth comes in close to take them out.
3. There is a concept that flips #2 - stealth comes in and looks for targets, a large transport aircraft is converted into a "missile truck" and ripple fires on target from a distance, WITHOUT having to illuminate - there are missiles called AWACS killers which are pretty dangerous to #2. Note that ripple fires implies missiles with multiple means of targeting.
4. Drones can play the role of finding targets and recon-by-fire too.
