      This is the U.S.'s Lockheed Martin F-35 Lightning II, the next generation of American fighter jets. It has been in development since 1992. All told the program is slated to cost upwards of a trillion dollars. And it is one of the most colossal pieces of shit ever created. pic.twitter.com/iPbg0ltOfp

          it was a multi-aircraft strike force simulation and we're not going to tell you the parameters of the test or the makeup of the forces or whether all the other pilots actually graduated from flight school because eff you that’s why

          “hey you haven’t graduated from flight school but we’re sending you to Red Flag to fly an 80 million dollar jet and waste $$ in the most complicated air exercise in human history to hoodwink some Extremely Online Opinion Havers” this is definitely what happened

          In 2015 dollars, how much did past aircraft cost? F-4 : $14m to $19m early-model F-15 : ~$45m early-model F-16 : ~$22m new F-16 : ~$45m new Super Hornet : ~$65m

          1) US military aircraft have gotten more expensive. So have US military vehicles and ships. The new aircraft carrier cost $100/lb to build. 2) Part of this is that while some past aircraft were expensive (eg the B-2 Spirit) there were cheaper aircraft that got built more.

          So the US military said, we'll have the F-22 and the F-35, and if one is too expensive we'll stop building it. The F-22 was expensive. Cancelled. Oops, the F-35 is expensive too.

          There are only 2 makers of US military aircraft: Northrop and Boeing. If either goes out of business, there will be a monopoly, which would be a disaster for the US government. So the US won't allow either to go out of business.

          That allows the management of both companies to extract high rents from the US government. "What are you gonna do, let us go bankrupt? Where are you gonna get aircraft from then, huh?"

          Economists have mocked the shipbuilding subsidies of South Korea, but the US navy pays 3x as Korea does for equivalent ships. That extra spending by the US navy is greater than the Korean subsidies to shipbuilding!
