*Robert Farley* *Security, * Should the F-35 join this list? *Here's What You Need to Remember: *Nevertheless, not every aircraft can be a P-51 Mustang, an F6F Hellcat, or an F-15 Eagle.

In part because of the structure of the U.S. defense industrial base, numerous firms have offered competitive aircraft designs, allowing the weeding out of poor performers at a relatively e...
Why Would Russia Scramble Half of Its Su-57 Stealth Fighter Fleet?
