Sorry, the joke is on you. The F-22 is a bloated, useless, costly joke and it is a bad one...Does NOTHING for the military and will cost YOU AND I, as taxpayers over $340,000,000 EACH - it costs over $40,000 an hour to fly and that does NOT take into account the dumped fuel for landings. EVEN McCAIN is against this defense budget mess We do NOT NEED another fighter. IN FACT we could cut out defense budget in HALF and STILL spend 3 times MORE than the next largest defense spender in the world. So,it appears you may not be REAL SMART afterall Realsmart says this is a joke of a website? Sorry, the joke is on you.
