This turn-about is a recognition of the fact that the F-35 is a total failure.

They were wanting a sports car to take the place of a pickup truck. Good for keeping the “Hog” ...

For those of you who don’t know, McSally was an A-10 pilot in the Air Force before she retired -— if I’m recalling correctly.

Good. Having driven one in the Gulf, I’m sure she knows what the A-10 can do.

I understand why Obama dislikes the A10, just when you think you have a Marine unit pinned down, one of those things come roaring up and kill the followers of allah.

***indicate a change of policy from the Obama administration's last two budget requests, which called for retiring the entire A-10 program***
A fleet of A10s is extremely effective against ground forces, like ISIS. Why would we even need such an aircraft?

Such lively editing ... do I take it from the third paragraph that McSally is a former A-10 pilot? or was it Barber? Pronoun reference!

And like a good little politician, she’s right there to jump in and take credit for the turnaround. This has a lot more to do with Chuck Hagel leaving and Zero being distracted with other problems.
