It’s magical, an F-35 that turns into an F-16 on the third day of War.
It is a great replacement for the Harrier Jump Jet though.
“They buried that little nugget. Wow, that is criminally bad.”
The issue is not buried, and it applies to the earliest models.
Here’s a quote from a much better article;
Items identified in the Annual DOT&E report are well understood and have been resolved in partnership with the F-35 Joint Program Office or have an agreed path forward to resolution, Lockheed said in a statement to Aerospace DAILY.
Planned design changes should allow the early F-35Bs to meet the service life requirement of 8,000 flight hours, a program source says.”

You dont really understand the concept of sarcasm, do you? Ha ha.
An adversary might be able to sink one.
But they will have crossed the Rubicon of nuclear war if they do.
And they know it.
OK, got it. But my point stands. Obviously in a broad sense they know we are there and coming back. But they are blind to sorties and their specific targets.
You are right. I understand the first attack is the blind them. Command and control, radar.
By the fourth day, I imagine we could put sirens on the struts.
And how many cruise missiles and drones could be had for the price of one F-35?

obviously the /s tag needs to be used by me more often
All this whiz bang sht is a national constitutional mandate, not money for schools from the feds.
School is not a right, except in the minds of communists, who, ironically, like to bash the military and weapon industry...
