Well. At least it has a machine gun. //

Comforting thought. I mean here we have another LM product kind of sitting around the hangar all the time. What makes people think the same thing won’t be true of an already problem prone JSF still in development.

When it comes to military thinking, I think Stalin had it right, numbers have a quality all their own. Stop trying to make a single super plane. Build one plane that’s reliable and cheap, that can do the majority of the jobs necessary. If you really need a plane to fill a certain role, use the money you saved and get another plane.
