Default Dump The Navy's Version Of The JSF (F-35C?)

""“I’m growing more and more convinced that the Navy variant of the
F-​​35
might not be worth buying. The program is sliding further and further
to
the right, as costs increase. When we have an 80 percent solution in
active production, and significantly cheaper, the F-​​35C looks like a
great
candidate for cancellation,” said one congressional aide."

See:

Would the Navy be better off skipping the F-35, and using upgraded F/
A-18's
until UCAS-D, or some other solution, is ready?
