Why not use the F-22 to replace the F/A-18 and F-14?

That's true, but the folks who have been working with the Ada-95 tools
noticed that it's easier to alter the software to run under Ada-95 than
it is to keep using the older Ada. Cheaper to maintain, faster to
develop.


As in the old software doesn't work.

The low competence of Lockmart's avionics group is why they sold it to BAE
Systems.

Wch is why a lot of that F-35 code you're so happy about is
just modified Ada code from the F-22 suite - and why a good chunk of

the
F-22 code is Ada-95 (newer and better development tools make

maintaining
the code so much easier it was cost-effective to rewrite it).


Let me clue you, the F-35 is tabbed to the Eurofighter.


That's an odd statement. "Tabbed to?" In common usage, that means
they're connected directly, but sine they aren't you must mean something
else.


Think real hard.

Are you aware of BAE Systems?


Yes, they're making a lot of the ECM and other systems *hardware* for
the F-35. To be controlled by the software that LockMart is developing
for controlling the whole plane.


Bull****.

No, as in "the old software worked, but they improved it and brought it
up to Ada-95 to make it easier to work with."

Nope.

I think you wrote something deliberately vague, so you could pretend it
was profound. You failed.

Bull****.


Not actually a refutation, there...

Yes, Simmons and all of Lockmart's avionics group are now part of BAE
Systems.

If you are this far outside what is real, why are you posting to this
thread, Irby?

Is it to "help" Lockmart? If that is the case I am certain Lockmart would
perfer you to shut up.

Wrong, as usual.

Note, for example, that the core processing units of the F-35 are
*still* being made by Lockheed Martin Tactical Systems, which is *still*
part of the LockMart organization as of this particular day. You seem
to not know about "Maritime Systems and Sensors," which is still a
*large* LockMart subsidiary (part of the Electronic Systems business
unit.

Poor Chad, so distantly seperated from reality.

So, if the Commanche is dead, can USAF justify pouring more money down the
F-22 rathole?

Funny how you can't ever seem to find anything to back your opinions
up...

It's like talking to a movie PR person.
