According to this week's AvWeek, DoD test & evaluation people listed

several
concerns about the F/A-22. The test fleet is getting more and more

different
from the production baseline, firecontrol problems and some hardware and
software reliability problems.


How can that be?

No mention of flutter.


So, even if the problems the average person can understand are solved, the
airframe is still ****ed?

The same article said that the test community was getting increasingly
concerned about 35mm cannon firing modern (AHEAD or 4P) ammunition as a
threat to low fliers, especially helos.


War is dangerous.
