F-35 off to Japan
http://www.onlineamd.com/aerospace-manufacturing-assembly-F35-Japan-amd-101011.aspx
F-35 final assembly is going to Japan. The US government is set to spend $382,000,000,000.00 of your hard earned tax dollars and a big chuck of that is going to go to Japan. If Japan gets the work, and the technology, and the know how they MAY give Lockheed an $8,000,000,000.00 contract. Lockheed wins. Japan wins. US worker lose. US taxpayers who are funding this F-35 debacle lose.
Sounds about right!
The program is plagued with delays and cost overruns, and one variant of the plane suffered cracks in the bulkhead after it flew just 1,500 hours out of a planned 16,000. Money well spent.
