Re: Jets & Planes but no UAV's here.
As I think about hitting the rack I do so with a smile on my face. It would seem I beat JANE'S in analyzing the F-35 situation and Suhiir has already made the changes in her OOB to reflect it. Victory is ours!!!  And to JANE'S I simply say...  with lots of droll!!!  Before I get further behind the "8 Ball" let me just enjoy this one and share it with Suhiir for hanging with me on this one. Even right down to the date...OK...OK I'll stop now!?!

Well that felt good, in reality we just committed first around the time or just before the below article on the USMC commitment to reach the IOC date. Generally IOC means if all goes well the first operational SQD. will be mission ready. However full operational status could still take up to 2 years after IOC is reached. We just felt we could "pull the trigger first" based on the information we had up to Nov. this past year so I guess that still means we...well never mind I'll sleep good tonight thinking about the "decision tree" anyway.
