#7  While a human controlled drone swarm is the future.... would you rather have that tech in 20 years, or the F-35B next year?

#5  BTW, if the Brits want to buy less than 2% of the F-35 aircraft, then they should build less than 2% of it. Not the 10% that was thrown their way in Britain or the 15% total for British own companies.
