STOVL is the marines, and the shiniest of the Joint Strike Turds. And I think Boyd and the Fighter Mafia were actually wrong. For BVR air-to-air, I would have rather had an F-14/F-15 with phased-array radar and AMRAAM, than an F-16/18. Although the F22 clubs them all like baby seals. The Vietnam lesson was only good until missiles improved. Now the war is between missiles and radar more than planes. And a fast missile truck is better than a slow missile truck. Mach 2+ would be nice after you’ve shot your load and are running away. |
