Sheesh! I worked out at LM in 1998 when they had a prototype and were trying to sell it. I think it was 10 years already in development at that point. Are any of them actually in service?

Maybe?

The F-35 fighter jet, a $65 million aircraft, is expected to replace the F-16 and F-18 fighter jets by 2016, starting with the replacement of about 200 jets per year. Overall, about 3,000 F-35 jets are planned for production, with 63 already completed, Robert Rubino, director of the U.S. Navy F-35 program, said previously during a media event at BAE Systems in Nashua when an F-35 flight simulator was unveiled.

Last time I checked the F35 still has only 30-40% of it's code written.

Like any software it comes out in versions. Hopefully get ng better each time.

No, no you haven't. You've been seeing F35's.... ARRrrrrrr. This is frustrating me, for some reason.

Thought it was a 22, guess not.

Oh well, don't care that much, lol.
