Okay let me make sure I understand this. Our enemy (China) is manufacturing computer circuit boards for our First Line F-35 Stealth Fighter Plane? It that right?
We are so fricking doomed.

Yes it does. LM designed the PCB and anyone can build it. It doesn't take the chinese to build a board to a spec, most anyone can do it including us.

OK. That's still better than scrapping the most technologically advanced fighter jet in human history.

Wrong. The F-15 is superior in ever way except carrier capability. Which is based around contracts more then capability. The F-15 had no equal in it's 35 year run as the air superior fighter of the globe.

The only advantage the F-15 had was better maneuverability. The Tomcat's AWG-9 radar was superior with tremendous range and multiple target tracking and engagement. Phoenix missiles had greater range and more of them on rail. Sparrows and Sidewinders could slave to radar; nothing on the Eagle could. The Tomcat could carry a bigger payload and drop bombs. That's another nope for the Eagle. The F-15 was a superior dogfighter and that's it.
