Ah the JSF.. What a marvellous aircraft!

Stealthy but slow. With not much range without unstealthy air to air refuelling.

Ordnance? Well not much as any external stores make it unstealthy.

One starling down the intake and it's very expensive scrap metal.

And now the Chinese reckon that they have the technology to identify it.

A total waste of $17 billion of Australian taxpayers money.

(PS: Down and Welded. The Schofields Air Display in 1983 had a B52H fly in from Guam too.)
