30 mia. til nye kampfly er det glade vanvid: Der er brug
for en ny og mindre militaristisk kurs i dansk sikkerhedspolitik.
Det betyder, at der ikke skal bruges flere penge end højst
nødvendigt på at indkøbe nye kampfly. / :

GAO: F-35 Joint Strike Fighter: Action Needed to Improve
Reliability and Prepare for Modernization Efforts, 2019.
In 2018, DOD sent an F-35 aircraft to its first combat mission and
started initial operational testing. DOD now plans to spend over
$270 billion to buy more than 2,000 F-35 aircraft over the next 26
years. Since 2011, GAO has found the need for more attention to the
F-35’s Reliability and Maintainability performance to achieve
an operationally suitable system.
GAO: F-35 Joint Strike Fighter: Development Is Nearly Complete, but
Deficiencies Found in Testing Need to Be Resolved, 2018
In 2019, DOD will decide whether to enter full-rate production for
the F-35 aircraft, the most expensive and ambitious weapon
acquisition program in U.S. military history. DOD has already
requested the $9.8 billion it will need for 2019, and it will
continue to request more over the next two decades—about
$10.4 billion annually. However, the F-35 is just one program in
DOD’s vast acquisition portfolio, raising questions about its
long-term affordability. The National Defense Authorization Act for
Fiscal Year 2015 included a provision for GAO to review the F-35
acquisition program until it reaches full-rate production. This is
GAO's third report under this provision. It assesses progress of
development and testing, including remaining deficiencies, and
plans for spending on new capabilities.
What GAO Recommends
Congress should consider providing in future appropriations that no
funds shall be available for obligation for F-35 Block 4 until DOD
provides a sound business case for the effort. GAO is making two
recommendations to DOD, including that it resolve all critical
deficiencies before full-rate production. DOD concurred with both
recommendations and cited that it would resolve all critical
deficiencies before its full- rate production decision.
