Flyaway cost is quoted at about $150 million. The fixed stuff has to
be paid whether we buy ten or a thousand.

ITYM "has already been paid". Cancelling F22 now runs all that money

down
the drain.


None of these developments will apply to the F-35?


They were supposed to, but I am pleased the F-35 is different.


You are pleased that it's going to cost them even more because they
haven't learned anything? And maybe you haven't looked very close but
the only real difference in aerodynamics between the two is the intake
and the back end of the vertical stabs. Everything else is very
similar. The engine incorporates F-22 experience as does the radar
and I'm sure any stealth goodies Lockheed developed for the F-22 will
help.

I am pleased that the F-35 has a good probability of actually working.

The F-22's electric systems remain a high risk problem.

Why don't you tell us what YOUR qualifications are specifically.

I'm not the one knocking others' qualifications. You are. So let's
hear what yours are. If you have any.

'bout what I thought. You must be about three foot five and suffer
from a terminal case of little-**** syndrom. You remind me of the
little kid in grade school who calls everybody names and then gets his
ass kicked on a regular basis. Come on Tarver, you tell everybody you
are an "expert" despite the kwality of your posts but you won't tell
us what you're an "expert" at. You can't even say you're an expert at
bull**** because your's never fools anybody.
