Add SLS to the list of embarrassing aerospace projects from America F-35, 737 Max, and Starliner.
- mhh__ 6y agoF-35 is doing just fine at the moment. It looked bad because it was the first modern aircraft to be developed under the watchful gaze of the internet, now it's doing much better in simulated combat as it's aged. It's not even that expensive anymore - it's not cheap by any means - but the new F-16 is basically the same price.
- superkuh 6y ago>the new F-16 is basically the same price. Wow. I didn't believe you at first but wikipedia says the price of a F-16V is $120 million in 2020 while the latest F-35A buy in 2019 had them at ~$80 million a piece.
