Better be good for that price tag, and certainly not the most attractive plane to grace the skies, but…welcome to active duty anyway!

I tend to think of it as "Beefy but Ballsy"

 

Unfortunately we will have to have us dragged into another conflict to see what it can really do 🙁

My inner optimist says that I hope we never get to find out, yet my pessimistic side says we will.  We can't seem to do anything but fight, whether it's called a war or not.

It is actually going to Eglin as part of the operational testing.  It is not an operational, combat ready aircraft yet.
