@@joshuasutton3461 black water has nothing to do with the f35 program. And although he is right about parts being manufactured all over the united states to get more support for the program, he is wrong about the f35 being the most expensive program in history, The reason why the claims of the f35 being overly expensive is because people compare the lifetime cost of the f35 program +50 years(development/acquisition/maintenance/training/and tactics development) with only the development cost and the first few units of other programs. While the f35 development went over budget the program is steadily moving forward and the f35 has become less expensive then a lot of 4th gen aircraft such as gripen and euro fighter Rafael, and once the maintenance facilities come online sometime in 2025 the maintenance cost of the f35 will fall dramatically and make it one of the most competitive fighter jets on the market. So him calling the program a failure is absurd since nations are still ordering the jet in large quantities even after more than 1000 units have already been delivered.
@@trollingpcgames you lost me at chapter 1 of your novel. Eric is one of the most insider individuals when it comes to the operation of the US military. Carry on, citizen
@@joshuasutton3461 then enlighten me how the f35 program is a failure other than it being over budget since a lot of the most iconic and successful military programs in history has had budget overruns. Is the military supposed to cancel all military programs that have budget overruns in the development stage? That would only lead to the military not getting a weapon system even after investing millions in its development.
It sucks too the uk, Germany, France and Spain are designing their own 5th Gen because the thing is terrible. Out of the 189 f22s we have which is 30 years old and far superior only 33 are flight worthy. About 6months ago they were flying from England to Norway as they were over the Baltic su-35s flanked them just to let them know yeah we can see you. A f35 vs a su-57 isnt even a fight, it's kind of like top gun "their faster, more manuverable and better in every way" speech
Ooooops stop interrupting
Most exp system in history is nuclear weapons

That’s not true. You don’t have any facts correct. The problem with the f35 is cost only. It’s the most advanced fighter in the world.
