Yes. This type of aircraft has no place in the modern battlefield and Foreseeable conflicts. The money could be put into more usefull sistems (each unit cost about $235 million for 239 planes) Whats your opinion?
TROLL ALERT! TROLL ALERT! CONFIDENCE IS HIGH... REPEATING... CONFIDENCE IS HIGH!
Fine.
Field a few fighter wings of the F22. I'm all for new fun toys.
But let's not delude ourselves that it's our best or most advanced. It's archaic.
It's a jobs program. It's a lot of things. But it's far from the most advanced craft we have.
It's even far from the most advanced craft we have that's already produced and deployed in very hidden strategic places.
Whether we'll be allowed to use such secret craft to defend our shores against puppet master planned attacks is a whole 'nother issue.
Selbsverstandlich, entschuldigung.
America faces no stark choices. Crops are good. Weather is fine. Combatants are dropping like flies...
I have a question about history... Did Japan invade China? How could that happen?

Huh?
LOL! I confess I didn't really pay all that much attention to Greta in the photo. ;o)
You Fool! You have revealed too much! Report to HQ at once.
I don't know anything about you.
And, I'm a layman who has had some connections and more reads tons of stuff from a wide variety of sources.
But, the assaults against you on this thread aside, I can tell you have AT LEAST SOME
astute perceptiveness beyond what a lot of tradition minded, tradition bound, seemingly unaware blowhards on here seem to have. To that--cheers. And to your pluck--cheers.
So easy to label someone a spamming troll just because we don't agree with them or believe what they are saying.
In this case, it seems to me that you are over reaching in the labeling and accusations dept.
I have no reason to believe the person is other than a patriotic conservative.
And that doesn't even begin to get into the slice of reality having to do with satellite weapons systems already deployed, does it.
Its Don Quixote project.
Lots of things which are very definitely true
cannot yet be proven overtly.
Maybe not... Do you think so?
It looks like a darn good figher/bomber, and the rest of our stuff is aging and not near as balanced in capabilities.
Lot's of buttons though! LOL.
Twelve or thirteen on the throtle and more on the joystick. It is like a video game.
I think that the person that started this thread is not doing very well on a Thanksgiving evening. And I pray for his/her health.
And Quix deserves a wonderful Thanksgiving Blessing as well.
But don't expect me to believe any of the afore-mentioned. Even if they say the sky is blue.
