Lmao, didn’t they just sort of get the F35 to sometimes work and now it’s getting mothballed after like a trillion dollars in funding for over a decade?
They spent so long fucking around with this trash jet that is was obsolete by the time they started using it.
Meanwhile China just pulls fucking 6th gen jets out of nowhere. The US spend a decade talking up the 35 and then China just shits on it and doesn’t even say anything.
At the rate they are going, one has to wonder what they gonna fight it with?
