As a close follower of F-35 development, and of the A&A conflict, I am not exactly sure what you mean. The F-35 would have been very useful to either side willing to use it for the SEAD/wild weasel role.
- waiseristy 6y agoIn a land of infinite wealth I would want an army of 10,000 F-35's. In a poor backwater just outside of Turkey, I would want an army of 10,000 suicide drones
