'PhilipG' if you need validation then I have no problem with your post. My issue is with 'CM' assertions without any proof. I actually admire the way you are able to provide "...a summation of a number of your posts with a little thought linking them together...." Excellent Outstanding BZ Bravo Zulu Well Read Sir. Got it?

VL? Probably NOT as indicated earlier
F-35 Mini Deployment 11 Jun 2014 John A. Tirpak
F-35 Mini Deployment
"...said Lockheed Martin F-35 Vice President Lorraine Martin. This marks the first time an F-35 of any variant has participated in an international airshow.... The aircraft will likely make the trip from MCAS Beaufort, S.C., refueled en route by KC-10 tankers. The team deploying will have to take spare parts, enough pilots and maintainers, and elements of the ALIS maintenance system to turn the aircraft for a combined eight flying demonstrations. The show routine is expected to be quite similar to that flown by the AV-8B Harrier, with a high- and low-speed pass, slowdown to hover and land, vertical takeoff, then rapid acceleration and flyaway...."

Spaz, sorry, Mate. Lost interest in your rant now. I think you don't get my point that 2B and 3I are not the same software release. They have the same capability but are coded to run on different hardware. 2B is close to being tested and accepted, 3I is in flight testing. That is all I'm saying. Good night.

Oh ****!
I hate missing birthdays. Did we all wish the Joint Strike Fighter program a happy 20th?
Would it be more appropriate to wish CALF a happy 21st? Or is that less a significant birthday these days with everything else being legal at 18.

'CM' I lost interest in your inability to prove this somehow:
Have a read again at what has been provided earlier - or where you at pub again.

Spazsinbad, the point CM is making is valid.
2B and 3I run on different hardware, hence are different software regardless of what end service they provide.
It's like having Word text processor for MAC and PC, or Linux or whatever.
All have the same interface, function and produce compatible material.
However, all have different code since they operate on different OS/hardware.
It's the same case with JSF and I'm not sure what is to be 'proved' there.
Elementary knowledge of computers and software should be enough to make this obvious.

Want to make the F-35 cheaper..?
Then it's going to cost "tens of millions" of dollars! Also of note is that the Pentangle is looking at ways to 'bind' overseas customers to their order numbers by offering incentives, whatever they might be...
