I agree with that analysis. My tinfoil hat is not too tight...:)
Hmmmmmm. How did you mean this?
What I said in a nutshell:
1. We have built things before that where we were on time and under cost.
2. The JSF still has quite a bit of time.
3. Those working on it are good at what they do and the JSF is not built in a vacuum. A lot of stuff already exists or the technology does not really need developed since it's from the F22.
4. The concept in force structure of the JSF/Raptor seems to be similar to the Viper/Eagle. This seems like a good mix in capabilities.
Does that seem far out to you?
