Yeah, that really didn’t happen the way they claimed it did.

The fly away cost for the f-35 is under 90 million in it’s next block. I would say your entire argument is done.

The F-35 is being certified for this. Right now the pentagon doesn’t feel comfortable being 100 percent drone based right now.

What’s really slick. The F-35 will be able to control a fleet of drones in the area via point to point communication to limit hacking threats. The pilot can queue up targets and tell the…

It’s more about making sure no one wants to even bother to try.

That 1.5 trillion includes operational costs. So it’s already covered, but try again.

Probably not much tbqh. Less hacking risk than our drones.

Probably not. You have to literally gut the jets. It’s probably worth doing in the F-22s but nothing else really.

Or it really could be taught quite the opposite. It’s going to be around for 40 years, and it’s looking at having one of the most successful testing phases of any modern jet. The next block of F-35s is coming in under 90 mill each, with engines......

They don’t but that doesn’t mean they won’t in 10 years. Remember, the 1.5 trillion cost, that’s for 40 years and 2k F-35s. They expect this airframe to last that long. When you look how long the F-18cs have been around, they are right on the money with that estimation.

This helm really is the game changer in the F-35. This is what will make this plane better than literally anything in the air when it comes to total battlefield visibility. The pilots will have a full 360 degree view of the airspace and targets around them without having to physically move their heads.

You can…

Because the A-10 being better at CAS than an F-16 or F-35A is a bad and wrong meme.

This article is wrong and bad. The F-35A can and will do everything the A-10 can, and better.

This has been well known for a while. Why do you think he signed with Boston? The Giants demanded that he see a nutritionist year round. That fat fuck got pissed and went to Boston, and the inevitable happened.

Jesus, those engines are such shit.

This isn’t the first time sbnation has made a horrible horrible decision when it comes to what it allows on it’s website. Their editors literally destroyed the Tampa Bay Ray’s sbnation site because the readers and contributors rejected the idea of letting a yankee fan run the Rays site. They banned most of the vocal…

We are giving Iraq Cessna’s with hellfire missiles. Is that good enough?

It takes 10-15 years to develop new jets. Even non military “simple” passenger jets.

who gives a shit about turning. Aim-9x

It seems like they are just for show.

It’s not possible to load people more efficiently than zones.
