I read the linked report in On_The_Top_Bunk's post (#7350) but the phrase that particularly caught my eye was "The High Costs and Limited Benefits of the F-35 Program". It immediately struck a chord in light of historical revisionist controversy concerning the Dambusters' Raid.

I think the concept, development and operational deployment of Barnes Wallis' Tallboy earthquake bomb were less radical than for his Upkeep bouncing bomb but I remain open to persuasion.
