@andrewm153351 he said half a million, 500,000$

@andrewm153351 Save us money? we're not even using them in combat yet, they are still going through testing. Not too mention we are selling 35's to countries like the UK, and Israel. Fighter jets are the LAST thing that is going to save America money.

Sorry but did the narrator just say that the F-35 jet fighter cost half a Billion $ each? That simply isn't true. The F-35 cost closer to $100 million each, which is 1/10th of a billion $ by the way.

And thats not including the fact that its actually going to SAVE us money because its replacing many different types of aircraft. Just thought id put my 2 cents in.

with decreasing himan input, but increasing human output

people controlling drones is just a transitional phase. In the end, robots will fight our wars for us. And we will only look into it every now and then...until Windows 2300 crashes, again.. then we'll be back to warhammers and bludgeons :lol:

The Army led the way, not the air force, whose reaper was a late comer.

I wonder what that last walking robot was called and whether it's a working prototype inside the u.s. Military.
