Why not use the F-22 to replace the F/A-18 and F-14?

Yes, I am aware that the E/F variants are the upgrade to the
current F/A-18 and the F-14. However by the time the FB-22 is
online, even those versions will be dated.

Less dated than the F-22.

You are not considering the F-22's two greatest flaws, the pre-96 Ada and
the Mil-spec components. The entire procurement of the F/A-18E is a
generation ahead of the F-22.

Remember that we are planning for a war with China by the end of
the decade. What is the ability of the Chinese aircraft.

Non-sequitur.

Just let loose all the VQ and VP guys flying P-3s, they can kick their ass,
already have,,,

Will these outfits be VQF / VPF? g

What language is F-22 software written in? I presume Ada-95?

The F-22 is older than that.

The F-35 has a chance of being more successful than the F-22 based solely on
it being post '96 Ada and having a late infusion of the RPL model. The
system itself has moved on since the parting and coding of the F-22.

Thats interesting cos I'm sure I've read somewhere that Eurofighter is
written in Ada-95 and flight standard C?

After a series of discussions WRT Ada here at ram with Ada experts i was
willing to accept the idea that Ada was fixed by 1996. Perhaps I am using
an incorrect identifier and it is Ada-95

Ada-95. Like a lot of the F-22 software, which got recoded because it
was easier to support. Which is why a good part of the F-35 software is
based on the F-22 software...

Was to be, but tabbing to the F-22 would be foolish now.

For cryin out loud!
Did everyone read the last 15 posts by Tarver, Chad and R.
David about software and programming? LOL, I'm sure it means a lot to
them but it gives perfect credence to my philosophy that all engineers
should be locked up in a rubber room at night! Too Funny!!
Hey guys! When you get that software and programming crap
worked out,,, let me know so I can go fly the jet ok??? Holy cow!
