Interesting developments generally on the Advanced Hornet. Having clearly been told in 2010 to not promote the jet as an F-35 alternative (hence the "International Roadmap" title, now abandoned), Boeing is now feeling more able to pitch the jet as a bridge to the F-35C - or whatever comes next. By the way, it is not intended to meet JSF signature levels. The concept is that you have IDECM and work with Growler and standoff weapons, so you don't need to.
