Why did the Lockheed X-35 beat the Boeing X-32 in the JSF competition ? Cheaper bid or better systems ? Simpler design ? Better performance. The lift fan gave the X-35 significantly better STOVL up-and-away performance than the X-32. Even the Boeing team leader acknowledged that they were sunk once LM demonstrated that the clutched lift fan actually worked. -- Tom Schoene Replace "invalid" with "net" to e-mail "Our country, right or wrong.
