Default More Marine Aerial Antics

Just another proof that USMC decision to ignore F/A-18E/F and EA-18G
might have been too short-sighted. Some day they may end up with only
2 or 3 F/A-18D squadrons for FAC(A) and recce missions, and be forced
to buy F/A-18F...

By the way, what does it mean that F-35 may "lose political
supoport"?;-)
