Oh and I guess you've missed the irony in the comment about losing the F3 in respect of terrorism.
Sorry gummybear didn't realize I couldn't duplicate and make my own point of view, and as for being pedantic - just a bit.
Money saved from the F3 could save numerous lives in years to come if the money was used correctly - can you honestly say that about an aircraft that was behind the drag curve from it's conception. Hasn't been deployed in any useful roll and stayed behind the line during the Gulf.
