The dilemma is build an expensive platform that can accomplish many different tasks (not always very well) or build dedicated platforms designed to accomplish a single task – also expensive.
Dept. of Defense has concluded that integrating alternative energy into its energy mix is in their best interests since fossil fuel supplies are increasingly becoming unreliable, especially during a conflict.
This is a real concern. During the early years of the Second World War control of the Mediterranean (and England’s Oil supply) rested on the English Navy neutralizing the very formidable Italian Navy. The deciding factor was that the Italians did not have enough oil to sortie enough and were bottled up in port. That could very well happen today.
The F-35 is a useless piece of junk. If we had put as much effort into renewables as we do defending oil interests we’d be energy independent and save trillions. Instead global warming costs us hundreds of billions per year and Exxon reported 56 billion in profits price gouging us last year.
Funny how the green fakers don’t consider Nuclear Winter as Climate change. With the morons in charge, that is a lot closer than the BS they are pushing.

Military recruitment is way down. Who would want to work for the Biden kakistocracy?

No attempt to solve problems. Just trolling and trying to “own the libs.” Nothing but a big black negative hole.

The future is coming and whining about it doesn’t help anyone.

Is that the $1.5 trillion dollar F35 that can’t fly?

The cartoonist is out of focus, like all right wingers he doesn’t care about the future of the earth.

I suppose the USA will be well served when the oil gets so expensive that we can’t fuel more than a PT boat.
This program should be shut down at once! Paying 3 bucks a gallon for JP-8, what’s the world coming to!

He is definitely full of wind, mainly from his old farts syndrome.

If we converted to electric cars, imagine how much fuel it would save for our military equipment.
