I've been following the development of this plane for a while now. I remember reading in a different article that the intention of this plane is to be a sort of everything to everyone type of thing. It's meant to replace a lot of other planes that are more fit to their specific purpose and has a ton of bells and whistles. Pilots hate it. I find that striking and it further validates some principles I've developed over the years. Namely, smaller units fit to purpose that compose together to make a larger whole will defeat a single unit designed to handle everything. It also validates that management cannot force a project to be successful no matter the stakes. At best you get a half assed final product delivered on time but untested and brittle.
