dvlax40 Posted May 10, 2015 Share Posted May 10, 2015 Agreed but the F-35 could become self-aware and choke the pilot with the O2 hose and the AF would still talk about how it is the only answer to the CAS mission. Ok it may be the Irish whiskey and beer but wtf that was hilarious Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HU&W Posted May 11, 2015 Share Posted May 11, 2015 bah its always been that way, they will counter that the f-35 is a force multiplier (fucking hate that phrase, like drill down, it doesnt mean anything) and that 20 f-35s are the equivalent of 1000 a-10s It's a good thing that the F35 is completely impervious to being shot down. If we were to somehow lose a single plane, it would be the equivalent to 50 A10's going down, and we all know how many enemies would die in THAT process.

Clark Griswold Posted May 12, 2015 Share Posted May 12, 2015 Hm, might be a decent jet trainer... The company reps said they would offer that as an option but they didn't think the USAF would go for it - just from casual conversation with them at WEPTAC It has good maneuverability and power but not really enough for fighter lead-in (from a company pilot) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
