      It’s one of the most financialized and ineffective projects in the entire US military, and that’s really saying something. It’s billed as a hypothetical way for our close allies to use nukes, We would use ICBMs in real nuclear warfare which everyone knows is being stashed actoss Europe and Israel not-so-secretly the F35 shit is LARPing, but anyways conveniently nobody really plans on it since it would result in us getting property damage lol.

      Anyways that’s a red herring the real issues is the expense and the production of the parts for it + the amount of time it has to spend being babied by mechanics!

      That shit is so unreliable even when it’s not damn near killing the pilots with shitty ejects or weird landings, you want to see a video? It’s Fed up. Guy’s head clearly gets SMASHED against the Fing plane.

      It’s way less reliable based on inclement weather than these prototype direct energy weapons.

      We have effective weapons programs I don’t feel the need to talk about F35 when it’s so well covered. I can get you democrat, republican, bloodless investor, or communist takes on it
