What if there had never been a JSF? (Part 3)

By James Hasik

With a few more F-22s, the USAF might have aimed earlier for a bomber. The idea hasn’t gotten beyond the Duffel Blog and this column, but what if the USAF had long ago dropped the F-35A? As I noted last month, had the Pentagon foregone developing a wholly new fighter jet, the $100 billion it has spent […]

TINA + LPTA beats DARPA + SEAL

By James Hasik

Lowest price is no way to buy IT, Silicon Valley or not. Deputy Defense Secretary Bob Work and Under Secretary Frank Kendall have dispatched their team to liaise with the worthies of Silicon Valley.

Why don’t defense contractors do cyber?

By James Hasik

For all but Raytheon, a whole new realm of conflict seems disinteresting to industry. Going on eight years now, Raytheon has been mounting a strategic campaign in cyber security. This past April, the company spent $1.7 billion on Austin-based Websense, the 13th cyber business it has purchased since October 2007 (Defense Mergers & Acquisitions Daily, 20 […]

What if there had never been a JSF? (Part 2)

By James Hasik

The USMC has always had a backup plan. It’s called ‘Super Hornet’. The US Marine Corps is definitely putting a brave, can-do face on its first unit—Squadron 121—of Joint Strike Fighters (JSFs), aiming shortly for a formal declaration of “initial operating capability.” But Michael Gilmore, the Pentagon’s chief weapons tester, recently penned a dimmer account […]

By James Hasik

The US Navy could have spent mad money on drones. This month, the US Marine Corps declared that its first squadron of F-35Bs had reached “initial operating capability”. That’s 21 years after the program first began as the Joint Advanced Strike Technology (JAST) program, 18 years after the first Joint Strike Fighter (JSF) design contracts […]
