Missing from the F-35: A Clear Purpose
Yep. It's not an air superiority fighter (unless we're fighting Zimbabwe), and it's no better attack plane than the F-18, F-16 and A-10.
If I were president (or, better, Fred were president and I was national security advisor), my advise would be this:
1) kill the F-35. Kill it dead, dead, dead, today
2) restart the F-22 production line, get up to about 600 aircraft total
3) retire the F-15 as F-22s become available
4) upgrade the F-16 for the Air Force
5) upgrade the F-18 for the Navy and Air Force
6) develop an A-10 successor specifically to do what it does
7) more and better drones, especially for the Navy |
