The entire F-35 community has been up front about that from the start of the program. The F-35 is not a dog fighter. The F-35 is also years late in it's development, giving potential adversaries ample opportunity to develop countermeasures.

In Russia, war goes to you. Realistically, it's always been our hardware vs their hardware. That's where foreign relations with dictators and warlords who have strategic minerals is justified. All that stuff is just mud in the ground until we invent some technology that needs a lot of it and thus creates high value. Technology creates high value for the third world's mud. The third world is the third world because nobody knew the value those resources until recently, otherwise they would have been fighting over it centuries ago.

Tries to build "low cost" variant in three different versions for half the price. Gets upset and makes rambling speeches when never been used before technology turns out to be immature. Trying to use software to solve hardware problems is hard.

Act of Valor is an Action movie. To be Nazi style propaganda, we would have to see Uberbama and Herr Biden as central figures. The producers, reasonably, went to great lengths to avoid connecting either of them to the SEALS successes. SEALS are selected and trained exhaustively, Presidents are elected with or without qualification. If the SEALS were run like a Presidential cabinet, this movie would be a dark, tragic comedy.

Something only the young are either willing or dumb enough to do. As a non wealthy, 60 y/o Caucasian male, I'm quite familiar with being disparaged about every aspect of my existence. The only weapon I have is a thick, scarred skin.

On top of being economically illiterate, they sit in their little urban castles and glare down at the people who make or repair everything they need because we don't worship their pompous asses. If ever there was a class war, it's the media class against the people who make the country a livable place. Let's start with banning toilet paper in the states who don't have "right to work" laws.

All I've learned is to avoid MSM and realize that Congress is pyramid scam. They're all feeding from the same trough and billing us for their expenses, no matter how perverted or frivolous.
