Contrast with the F22, which performs way over spec. And which Obama killed.

Contrast with the F22, which performs way over spec. I have a feeling it doesn't - either. Defense R&D capabilities (at least on the public stuff) seems to have hit a wall back in the Clinton years.

The F-35 is performing way over spec - it feels like it was designed to spread a lot of taxpayer money around and make a lot of folks rich, and it appears to be doing just that. Sure, on paper, it started out as a great aircraft, but then a lot of people began dipping their hand into the recipe, adding a little of this, taking out a little of that, and before you know what, we get this monstrosity jack of all trades, master of none.
Mission creep, it's what's for dinner.
