Or a Super Hornet.


So I wonder if we'll be getting the full meal deal.
That's a really crappy deal, it feels like we are getting the shaft if they have a different stealth profile because the Americans don't want to share their stealth coating or jamming technology. It's like exporting guns to your neighbors which have half the accuracy of the ones you keep for yourself. They are already keeping the F-22s to themselves to maintain an advantage. The Joint Strike Fighter by definition should be a coaltion based and equal tool for all partners/customers.
