I noticed on the local news that an F-22 from Tyndall which crashed a few months ago was caused by a frayed wire.
It just seems there is no excuse for something like that.
Is it just me or does it seem like all fighters are more or less the same thing now?
Electronics dominate, so now the airframe can really be anything. You have F4s that are more modern than, say, Pakistani F16s.
As for wiring, it becomes a nightmare of maintnance. A F22 has probably enough to stretch to the moon or sun.
