I know right? The concept was a form of centralization: To make a one-size-fits-all plane that could be used by army, navy and marines alike. Of course they had to have variants, and that is the problem, really. There are dramatic differences, for example, between planes taking off from a ship, or from a carefully groomed air-field. That is not to mention improving the flight-time/repair cycles.
This happened during a rapid digital transformation towards integrated computer assistance for pilots. (Note that Russians now have computer screens that appear in the actual windscreen of the plane, for example).
I remember people moving off to Texas to go work on the F-35 project, back like 20 years ago. Can't believe it's still going, because it seemed like Congress cancelling large projects, was the norm at the time.
Is that part of the BH's plan against the US? They have messed with steel for Subs too.
...Lockheed Martin et al still got paid...
Will those hurt the enemy if you throw them? They're cheap & easy to procure. lol

Is this why we sell it to everyone lmao?
The selling it to everyone was an attempt to recuperate on the extensive losses.
