Don’t get too excited - one of the reasons the plane is such a POS is prior cost cutting removed many of its abilities and capabilities ... Now its just a show piece that to do most any job correctly and survive would have to be redesigned from the ground up - a very expensive POS. More cost cutting will just make a cheaper plane that cannot do much of anything and survive.

Nope. Under delivering while overspending caused cuts. The program has had plenty of funding for all features to have been delivered.
