Default Joint Strike Fighter under attack on Capitol Hill

… because if we cannot build the STOVL aircraft, then we really cannot
proceed with the F-35 program.


So if the F-35A works, but the F-35B doesn't then the Air Force will buy

The Air Force may not be able to afford the F35A if the F35B gets cancelled.

Besides that, the Navy doesn't want to pay for the B.
