J24 – As has been painstakingly explained to you, your argument is undermined because your evidence on the cost side of the cost-effectiveness equation is rubbish, sourced from people who give no sign of understanding the basics of defense pricing.
And of course, on the effectiveness side, one might note that the F-35A has zero effectiveness until it is operational and, today, the USAF does not have the confidence to announce when that is expected to happen. And by that time, who knows what tactics, weapons and countermeasures will have been developed to destroy, degrade or circumvent systems which are basically Aegis on wheels, impotent on the move and rather visible when stopped.
And finally, you might want to sort out whether the JAS 39 is a Griffin or a Griffon if you want anyone to take you seriously. But you’ve been rabbiting on for long enough to have got the point if you wanted to. Ignore function GO!
go dutch on him
Looks really nice.. reminds me of the old MiG-29K scheme. the belly looks light grey not sky blue like on the Su-34.
But then again, the Su-35 can make most schemes look good.
The Tornado ADV did exactly what it was supposed to do, not what many thought it should.
yes for the Scottish. but did it do what it needed to do for the Saudis and Italianese?
