Single Engine plus unreliable engine means falling dead off the sky, for US$130+ Millions.

Flying golden coffin.

F’d: How the U.S. and Its Allies Got Stuck with the World’s Worst New Warplane

From all the recent sounds of celebrating coming out of Washington, D.C., you might think the Pentagon’s biggest, priciest and most controversial warplane development had accelerated right past all its problems.

The price tag —currently an estimated $1 trillion to design, build and operate 2,400 copies—is steadily going down. Production of dozens of the planes a year for the Air Force, Navy and Marine Corps is getting easier. Daily flight tests increasingly are hitting all the right marks.

Or so proponents would have you believe.

“The program appears to have stabilized,” Michael Sullivan from the Government Accountability Office told Congress. “I’m encouraged by what I’ve seen,” chimed in Air Force Lt. Gen. Christopher Bogdan, head of the program on the government side. When War is Boring asked Lockheed spokesman Laura Siebert about the F-35, she said she expected a “much more positive” article than usual owing to what she described as the program’s “significant progress.”

But the chorus of praise is wrong.

The F-35 Joint Strike Fighter — a do-it-all strike jet being designed by Lockheed Martin to evade enemy radars, bomb ground targets and shoot down rival fighters — is as troubled as ever. Any recent tidbits of apparent good news can’t alter a fundamental flaw in the plane’s design with roots going back decades.

Owing to heavy design compromises foisted on the plane mostly by the Marine Corps, the F-35 is an inferior combatant, seriously outclassed by even older Russian and Chinese jets that can fly faster and farther and maneuver better. In a fast-moving aerial battle, the JSF “is a dog … overweight and underpowered,” according to Winslow Wheeler, director of the Straus Military Reform Project at the Project on Government Oversight in Washington, D.C.

And future enemy planes, designed strictly with air combat in mind, could prove even deadlier to the compromised JSF.

It doesn’t really matter how smoothly Lockheed and the government’s work on the new warplane proceeds. Even the best-manufactured JSF is a second-rate fighter where it actually matters — in the air, in life-or-death combat against a determined foe. And that could mean a death sentence for American pilots required to fly the vulnerable F-35.

War is already outmoded. Its only terrorist groups that are clamoring for it.

Re: F-35 expensive useless RSAF junk ordered = engine fire

Should Malaysia decides to buy and install the S400 missile system from Russia (like China), then the entire RSAF will be rendered useless. Worse, if they decide to base their S400 system in JB. Stupid pap.

Future of air-warfare is Drones.

Drones can neutralize an aircraft carrier.

Re: F-35 expensive useless RSAF junk ordered = engine fire

War is already outmoded. Its only terrorist groups that are clamoring for it.

War is the sole hope for long term existence of human, by bringing down global population to a sustainable level, in a lasting balance with the remaining resources on planet earth.

For the past 1~2 centuries, man made gave mistake of PEACE concept, to stop wars, plus childish HUMANITY idea, to rescue epidemics famines disasters etc. Exploding level of global population and levels of consumption to global resources, as well as demages to global environment, towards an inevitable consequence for total extinction of man.

Regardless how man dream or struggled for peace, it had to be denied, it had to be rid, it had to be CORRECTED. Priority of war need to target those promoters and protectors of peace, to rid and punish them for blindly driving man towards total extinction.

Most of the wars started in the post ww2 era are started by countries like america and israel and russia not terrorists.rich countries with huge resources eager to test their weapons of war and kill.

It was the stupid USA which got rid of stable long lasting powers in Asia that caused brutal aggressive militants to rise, filling the power vacuums left by incompetent puppet regimes established by USA.

The examples are Iraq Afghanistan where Saddam and Taliban's were stable and long lasting. Also Syrian Assad regime was stable and lasting, and USA had to plot and support rebellion militants to make civil wars.

Somalia also was stable Abd CIA stirred shit.

Middle east was peaceful and stable after WWII. British and USA moved Zionists to establish Israel, destabilize and brought endless wars in Middle East.

Fucking KNN right?
