Aah yes about ‘fanboys’... how about the pilots who will be sitting in F-35 seats, or, the commanders who will be sending their young men into battle in F-35’s. How do they feel about the new weapon system.
Marine Corps: F-35 is the best thing on the block

What I am reading is what the people who are using the system say, not what the armchair critics like A Van and Rhino say.
Far from underestimating the enemy...hard to estimate the ‘equivalent' enemy machine A Van touts, it simply isn’t there to be estimated, the lively debate in the US military seems to be, not about whether the F-35’s are worth the money, but why can’t we get these weapons quicker.
