USAF Quote of the year...

Major Hat Tip to ELP Blog...


“I can’t wait to be relieved of the burdens of close air support,” Major General James Post, the Vice Commander of Air Combat Command (ACC)
"Nuff said.  We've been telling you that the F-35 isn't about close air support...even for the Marine Corps...its all about deep strike.

Sidenote:  If you have any connection with ground forces then you should be alarmed.  The F-35 global complex...the idea that says the training, maintenance, operating philosophy etc...will all be the same is starting to bear some bitter fruit.  If the Vice Commander of Air Combat Command is saying this then you can bet serious money that this thinking is being shared through all US services and allied air forces.
