Lkorrow> The sabotaged F-35 can't even engage in a dogfight. It shoots at targets from miles away. Design flaw by design.


Don't think so Linda.

The F-35 does have a cannon so it can dogfight.

This is not a view you get very often. It’s the F-35A’s GAU-22/A 25mm internal cannon opened up for the world to see its mechanical firing process, including the barrels hydraulically spinning up, the low-observable gun door and the vent door popping open. And of course lots of smoke and flames.

And,
A site I like to frequent points out that in armored
warfare the strength and armor of the tank is less
important than the crew.

From this site :

Let’s be clear: an F-16 did not beat an F-35 in a dogfight. Instead, an experienced pilot in an F-16 beat a less experienced pilot in an F-35.

The article does point out that the complexity of the
F-35 means the pilots will have an uphill battle
becoming proficient enough to make good use of the
plane.

And that's why Obama tried to kill it. The A10 has no replacement, we would have no close air support. He near took down the military and took out intel -- where we had and need people on the ground, he went to relying on foreign agencies.

The sabotaged F-35 can't even engage in a dogfight. It shoots at targets from miles away. Design flaw by design.

Meanwhile, pilots are refusing to fly our regular fighters because they can't find the problem with the breathing systems. Unbelievable and sure sounds like sabotage there, too.

Got to clear out the traitors who would disable our military by cutting the A-10, designing crappy planes and apparently sabotaging our fleet of planes.
