re: #380 Kragar (Proud to be Kafir)

A multi-purpose fighter is a much more economical and tactically flexible choice for the types of wars we’re engaged in.

Which was supposed to be the F-35. But that’s turned into a long drawn out mess when you come down to it. The biggest problem at first was that it was overweight. Now, Lockheed has lost a lot of international customers. The Hornet is actually a pretty good multi-role aircraft in the mean time. As is the F-15E which can be used for air defense.
