Pentagon Support for Useless, Overprices Boondoggle Gains Strength

Yes, after years of lobbying, it looks like the Pentagon may support buying more F-22s.

It’s expensive, it’s designed for use against the non-existent Warsaw Pact, it has no advantages in a counter-insurgency campaign, and it is highly limited (the JSF is a far better bomb truck).

Additionally, any new production will have to update computer hardware and software, because the original architecture is obsolete.

Yet another indication that the USAF should be reintegrated into the Army. This is a toy for the wild blue yonder set.
