Pentagon Wars, but for the F-35.
The thing is, and as we’re about to see with the Bradley in Ukraine, it’s not as big a deal when your adversary is absolutely terrible at war.
I guess we could just keep counting on that never changing…

- Maursault 4y agothx for posting. I just love it when Richard Schiff yells. It's music to my ears.

- ianburrell 4y agoThe important thing with Pentagon Wars is that the detractors couldn't tell the difference between AFV and IFV. It is like comparing a minivan or pickup truck and complaining that the truck has bed (with machine gun) and carries less people when that is the whole point. IFV made AFVs obsolete and the US needed to build the Bradley to compete with Soviet ones. Or testing the Bradley against anti-tank weapons when it was never designed to survive them cause it is not a tank. And most tanks can't survive them. The other funny error in Pentagon Wars is complaining about the $12 billion price tag. When the Bradley program cost $6 billion and was underbudget.
