What killed the Comanche was its mission disapeared. Stealth
technology does not protect against primitive line of site weapons.
Even if the spec had been frozen five years ago and the aircraft had
been fielded, it's final flyaway cost would have made it's use
impractical in the war on terror. Even the future of the F-35 is now
questionable.
