Thats one opinion of course.
Was the F3 designed as a 'dogfighter' or as a means of carrying a fair few missiles and a decent radar aloft, loiter for a fair while and pick off targets at range?
Would such an ability be useful in say, enforcing a no-fly zone and do the F3 fleet have any previous experience of this (hint, yes they do)?
Whilst many of us love to knock other fleets the F3 is pretty good at what it was designed to do.
