Unfortunately the only thing that MIGHT fix the F-35 is when the Israeli Air Force gets their first batch. Then MAYBE they can fix all the bugs (like they do with all our other stuff).

It will probably take those 1800 people Trump's entire first term to make the changes the F35 needs.

Still....good news for Trump's economic team.

So they're gonna lower costs AND hire 1800 more people to make this thing? How does that work? Genuinely curious.

step 1 - build F-22

step 2 - paint "F-35" on it

Fixed.

The Obama Admin really kept a close eye on the F35. That's why it's such an amazing project today.

I hope there are recording of these meetings. Like what exactly are they talking about in terms of negotiating new jobs and lower costs on these projects.

is trump coming into these meetings with a line item by line item of what they need to look at? to reduce these costs?

is he offering lower taxes on certain items?

or he is just saying I am going to tweet about you if you don't do A and B.
