Re: Jets & Planes but no UAV's here.
Yep, as you say one squadron of anything but EW type aircraft are pretty irrelevant. So I'll stick to my 2017 date. Actually, I've seen things about qualifications with various weapons taking place recently. As with any new system during peacetime it's one small step at a time and eventually you get a functional system.
I'd assumed NavAir had signed off but just couldn't find a solid reference, thanks.
I had a friend who was a mechanic back in 1977 when they were testing the LAV and tho not nearly as big a circus this whole thing brings back memories.
