Subject: 2 Test planes
FJV    7/1/2009 3:51:59 PM
The Dutch are going to buy 2 F-35 test planes with an option to sell them back.

At the same time there are claims about S1850M radar able to detect stealth. Which the Dutch would have acces to.

Almost a shame not to test these two systems against each other.

 This is a bad decision for the Dutch... Why waste all that money buying test planes when they could just ask some idiot truck driver without an even basic grasp of the concepts involved in air combat "what is wrong" with the F-35?

Can you just bugger off and find a kids forum to go to?  You're nothing but a troll.  You have no insight into any of the JSF (or Rafale for that matter)  issues except what you read and frequently misunderstand on the internet.  You're another of these internet idiots who thinks that anything open source is unimpeachable and you have regularly and publicly shown a complete ineptitude for understanding basic concepts.

I've lost count the umber of times where people on here who are real pilots, real engineers, real programmers, real procurement managers have shut you down.

based on open source information, we also all know whats wrong with Rafale.  Goose and gander stuff.  (pause before commenting - it might help you)

You're making Necro/HtJ look like a stellar perfomer...

I believe that the F-35 will not be as good as it supposed to be , this is my opinion .
Futur will tell ...

Herald12345    Those are opeval planes not "test" planes.   7/1/2009 6:16:22 PM
That actually means the Dutch are COMMITTED at last.
 
Op-eval is the step before introduction.
