F-35 Is 'FUcked' Never Should Have Been Made : Pentagon Chief

[VCheng]

Harrier is littoral marine use, not navy carrier use. Navy carrier should have twin engine plane. US navy has never used single engine fighter.

What do the dumb Murrikans know about carrier operations? Nothing. They should look to glorious China for lessons on how to design carrier-based jets, right?

 

[nahtanbob]

what is he exactly saying

he was former executive of Boeing. he doesn't like Lockheed aircraft
he wanted the Boeing F-15s and F-18s to be upgraded

Somebody needs to do more research before claiming the U.S. Navy has never used single engine fighters.

Is that ignorance of "knowin' nuthin' 'bout nuthin'" the reason USA remains the only nation to have mastery over carrier-based operations day and night?

Why wasn’t he speaking up when Boeing submitted this against Lockheed’s jet.

What stupidness is this???

I expected 5th generation Tejas to look like this.

this was definitely designed by an Indian employee of Boeing.

It's not a bad design for the role it was built for. JSF was built as an attack plane, with secondary air to air capability for self defense.
