Aunt Jen Posted July 30, 2011 Posted July 30, 2011 These things are nice, but a little above my budget!
Forty Rod SASS 3935 Posted July 30, 2011 Posted July 30, 2011 We'll be out of Afghanistan before that thing's ready....and we'll never, ever, ever be involved in another war. Are these people even smart enough to breathe on their own?
Smoken D Posted July 30, 2011 Posted July 30, 2011 Ifen ya want one, just apply for a loan from the Chinese. They get first look
Big Sage, SASS #49891 Life Posted July 30, 2011 Posted July 30, 2011 Worked some on the F35 before I retired. Lots of complex technology, but when it works, it will be something to behold. I have my doubts about the B model shown in the video. The way they vector the exhaust is totally different than the Harrier, really a mechanical nightmare...IMHO Been gone 11 years and I am sure that a lot of changes (I'm sure for the better) that enhance producibility have been incorporated since I left. But no Matter what they do, it's a piece of change
