Unfortunately, I couldn't find a spending timeline in that information. Also, isn't there an option to get a mix... say 20 F-22s now and 40 JSFs later? Finally, what exactly are the benefits of the JSF? Can it travel further to devlier a larger payload? If it has no benefits then the decision is easy... but I presume there must be a trade-off somewhere. Thanks Carlo. Unfortunately, I couldn’t find a spending timeline in that information.

Scott | February 21st, 2007 at 10:04 pm A pleasure. NB I do not get to do much flying recently, far too busy with analysis and Canberra politics, sadly. So I too am now a 'ground based creature', as much as I might enjoy flying supersonic aileron rolls otherwise! Carlo Responding to 11. Scott | February 21st, 2007 at 10:04 pm

That might negate what I was trying to acheive here. You see hidden within that two-post weaveworld is a secret message from me to fatfingers. One day he'll understand that message and I hope its not too late. But its far too subtle for anyone else to comprehend.. ..Because of the way I've sort of reverse-Rosetta-stoned it in. No no not at all.

It is designed that way because the US wanted a unified model to replace the rest of its fighter, fighter/bomber forces. It also had to do the Harrier hover so the Brits would take it.
