The real issue under these conditions is software portability.

The software will not be portable, as timing issues will make that
impossible.

The F-22 is under enormous pressure to perform right now, with the
review reporting back in the next few months, any talk of obsolete
systems in the state of the art jet are being downplayed.

Upgrading obsolete parts was also a concern from Day 1. It was
expected and planned for: it was one of the drivers for this
implementation of the Pave Pace architecture.

Why is the Raptors Software so troubled?.
You are asking me to pubically bash my customer.

The GAO has already injected reality, but you should hush, Harry. If you
bash the customer you are a bad guy, but if you continue down a road of
telling what you know is subjective spin you will be unethical; the former
is at least a recoverable fault.
