Will we get a hybrid of Block2B and Block3F?

I guess that @TotenDead has been living under a rock and failed to notice what Israel did to Iran recently with their F-35s (Block 3F's, by the way).

Which is exactly the type of opponent I wrote about

This is a weird conclusion to draw. when the F-35 was first teased it was teased with a ton of capes like SDB, AIM-120D, JASSM, and the like, then not so slowly everything disappeared off the list. Its not that people want a press to win button, its that we want a F-35 thats actually useful, not some 2 amraam, limited FLCS jet that was pre IOC. SDB is especially huge because the F-35s weapon carriage capability is so small. having 4 mini bombs on a rack is huge.

I believe ED removed those capabilities for a reason which made some people start to whine. So, isn't it better to get at least a limited F-35 then none at all?

No, it is not!

"Peasants" don't have S-300 SAMs and Integrated Air Defences and Mig-29s and etc, etc... for F***ing Christ Sake!

No, it is not! It's preferable not to have a F-35 at all than have a Block 1 or Block 2B or Block 3i.

Yes it is. 4 regiments of S-300s is nothing for a country with a size of 2+ Texas states. And I wouldn't even mention outdated and half inoperable aircraft

So, my point stands

This just proves how clueless you are regarding these subjects. As such, there's no point continuing this discussion with you.

So, whatever rocks your boat...

Please be nice to each other. Thanks.

we will provide an F-35A based on the available data at the time of project design. If new data becomes available later, like other weapon systems, we will evaluate integration then. As for the initial weapon list (only listed for about 25 hrs), that was scaled back after a more careful review of available data.'

thank you
