He will ensure it continues on a path to become the excellent program it is already shaping up to be.

US military antagonists have a lot to point to with some of the difficulties we have seen in the LCS, the Zumwalt, the Ford and the F-35...among others.

But as I have said, all of thee programs are pushing the envelope and when you do that, tread into new areas breaking into new technologies, you run into issues, sometimes unforeseen because they are so new and cutting edge.

And the US is doing several programs like this at once.

But again, as I have sad before, and now with people like Trump, Matts and others, I am willing to rest easy knowing that they are ging to push them through to success and those programs achieving not only the capabilities they projected, but also the savings in term of overall program costs.

Here in a few years, remember this statement.

...for now​

The Cabinet-approved purchase marks the third tranche of US-built stealth fighters by Lockheed Martin Corp. Congress and the US Administration have pre-approved Israel for the purchase of 75 single-engine stealth fighters.

Israel initially ordered 19 aircraft in 2010 under a $2.7 billion package, the first two of which are scheduled to arrive here in the coming weeks. That initial package was followed by a $2.82 billion follow-on order in February 2015 for another 14 planes.

The third order approved Sunday evening will bring Israel’s acquisition commitment to 50 aircraft.

You hear all the detractors...yet you see very strong...and smart...nations continue to bring them on board.

Which means those people know something about the ssues and that they are part f a process that is leading to an aircraft they want.

I've said it before...let me say it again...the F-35 will be absolutely the most prolific, most exported, and altogether represent the most powerful 5th generation technology available on the planet for decades to come.
