      I gotta admit, I stopped watching him a while ago. Still doing more of the same?

    The F22 is such a pretty plane. On one hand i don’t want to see these planes used in war, but on the other hand it is such a waste to keep them grounded.

      The airframe design really did reach a plateau there, didn’t it?

    I wonder what the reason is. It must be either so good it’s beyond words, or so bad it’s unusable.

      “F-35 is cheaper per-flight hour”

      They are expensive, and almost irreplaceable.

      Neither of what are good qualities for weapons.

      To add on to other answers, one of the major design parameters that went into the F-35 was not being a delicate, impossible-to-maintain prima donna like the F-22. There’s stories about people accidentally just kind of scraping off the high tech anti-radar coating, and the stuff inside kept it on the ground a really long time between flights too. Meanwhile, the F-35 has almost every part independently accessible, and normal-ish coating durability.

      I took out Apache with a stray closing bracket. Crashed every site on the server, my boss was pissed

        That’s why you always reload, and never restart it.

          I mean apachectl -t first would be my preference but also a good habit to form in case you forget

    The F-22 successfully defeated an unpowered balloon. Money well spent.
