Easy Harold-

just a little joshing-
I understand the maintenance issues and such--the avionics makes
sense --although the still have bugs(no pun intended) in the AESA
radar--don't they?
but you have to admit the short range is an issue

AFAIK there are no bugs in the radar. What I've heard is that the

Range has always been an issue with the Bug, although the
superbug is much better.
