Funny they aren't shifting f35 tails to f15/16. Let me know when this changes. BS speculation is just that.

when a f15 cost over $100m in 2006 and a CPH similar to the f35. It has as said, less. "Dollar for dollar, it [f35] probably gives us more combat capability than any other investment we're making"
I think it's sweetman's fantasy that they will buy serious numbers of 4th gen

PS, wild speculation, what could happen are some fa18 /growlers, post Aussie 12, to keep the line open
