Yadda-yadda-yadda... First, this is already the subject of another

their
own report indicates that the $11.7 billion is actually for *all* spiral
development costs related to the F/A-22, to include future upgrades of
the
air-to-air and ISR capabilities. Thirdly, why do you persist in posting
nothing but excerpts of press reports/releases? You are beginning to
sound
like the infamous "Otis Willie"...

Yes you are correct.

It's also to fix the software so that it runs for at least five hours
every once in a while before crashing.

Zzzzz...oops, excuse me; were you offering something of relevance to the
discussion at hand, Henry? No? Figures. You really need to get back to
untangling that whole construction of your's that has Okinawa being a day's
flight away from Taiwan, and how the Su-30 is only a potential threat if it
is being operated by PLAAF or Russian pilots; you don't have time for
side-discussions. Back to the grindstone, Henry!
