Jesus christ! $1.5 trillion... but... healthcare, education... NASA!
And... "ready to go to war by 2015"... guys, seriously... what war will it be? Is it an old one that is still going or an entirely new one that needs to be created to pay for this plane?
We had a similar project over here in Europe (Eurofighter). So far they have been used to annoy Argentina purely through penis-waving and drop a couple of bombs on Libya and that's all. Then they ran out of spare bits and grounded them all.

Sorry. Just ranting. No replies required.
I admire your cynicism. It matches mine.

It's worse than that. They can only bomb if they have a 70s-era Tornado along to aim for them.
