@thef35 Two million parts for a single program. That's what sustained R&D funding builds. Canada trains engineers capable of this work, then wonders why they leave.

@thef35 Given the claimed performance jump over whatever previous computing hardware the F-35 had, this indicates that it had no been upgraded in quite some time. A 25x improvement in compute power doesn't happen from one generation to the next. More like a decade or two.

@thef35 Were the 30R08 and 40R03 softwares sucessfully tested recently ?
