Subject: Lockheed Martin F-35 Succeeds in First Aerial Refueling Test

Note the bit about the F-35 having 18,000lb of internal fuel, about double that of a heritage Hornet and about a third more than a Super Bug. The (newer) engine generates about the same amount of thrust as the twin can's on each of those types do as well, so there is no reason to believe that it will be less fuel efficient. Kinda puts all the crap that Kopp and Co have spun about it being short-ranged into perspective, hey.
