So here's a question.

 

What do you think the name (and type) of the next naval electronic warfare aircraft will be? So we know there was the E/A-6 Prowler, then the E/F-18 Growler. So I suppose it would make sense to be an E/F-35.. Howler? Scowler? What are your thoughts? :)Growler-Kosovo-840x480.jpg
