I think it makes sense if it saves the 35

I'm tired of giving a sh*t about Britain and what they want with regards to anything and especially with regards to the F35. Frankly, I'm sick and tired of the whole F35 program and would have no problem if it was crapped so long as we started building non-exportable F22s again afterward.

Not too hard to understand

“Yet, Congress has continued to fund the F136. By funding an extra engine that the military doesn’t want”

Machinists Vow “Hell of a Fight” With Pratt & Whitney

What if the unions don't get the deal they want and then go on strike. How will that affect the F-35 production?

The extra engine makes no sense? Hell, the F-35 makes no sense.

"Extra Engine For F-35 Makes No Sense"

Unless you lose one. Redundancy is everything in a robust fighter/bomber.

GE spent a lot of money on Obama.

They expect to be paid back
