Hovercraft F-35B prototype availability rates hover at about forty percent. Bringing their weapons up to the deck in wheelbarrows would suffice.
I guess they didn't hear about the F-35 prototype corrosion issue which halted deliveries last year, until it was swept under the rug like all the other serious F-35 prototype issues.
Three and a half years since the Marines declared a bogus "combat ready" and still no Milestone C F-35 system design. Seventeen years in development now with no approved product. A record! A model for "don't do this again" at the DOD Acquisition College.
It's enough to buy only about thirty F-35 mistake-jet prototypes, about ten percent of the useless planes they've already bought and are sitting in 24-plane "training squadrons" in the desert.
Empty "use" claims contribute nothing. One must look at the actual product which determines that the prototype F-35s, being prototypes, are generally NOT used.
None of those publicity releases relate to the actual capability of the F-35 system in its present state, which is (still) product development w/o operational test & evaluation leading to full production decision.
The few F-35C's in active service are only deficient pre-production prototypes, not up to spec, so that's no loss. Same situation in the other services which have JSF.
The USAF has budgeted money to correct the two hundred "highest priority" deficiencies in its F-35 prototypes but has not done so and obviously doesn't intend to do so. These are important mods; four of them are to bulkheads, the aircraft's frame. The modification lists in the FY17, FY18 and FY19 budgets are mostly the same
Navy has been smart on F-35, not buying many faulty prototypes and not declaring a fake IOC. Air Force, on the other hand...
