Well, LS, I have been an opponent of F-35 since it's inception. Just the concept of three very different variants in order to accomplish highly divergent tasks is incredibly difficult to start with. Then to ask them all to be the best in the world at each task, do it efficiently, and save the taxpayers money at the same time?? Do you still believe in Santa?

Last month the Project On Gov't Oversight, POGO, released a scathing report that will convince you that this aircraft will cripple our capabilities against peer and near-peer adversaries for literally generations.

I gotta admit to being html incapable, so I'll just show how to get it via Google. It's a very long read, but VERY well done, comprehensive, and from a group that cares about our gov't and how it serves us.

Google.......F-35 Continues to Stumble, the fond it on POGO.org

For everyone that has any interest in the F-35, or military procurement in general, it is a must read.
