F-35 Not Ready to Replace F-22

The Senate voted earlier this week against funding the F-22 fighter jet, stating that the F-35 was a more effective alternative. It's so effective that The Pentagon now says that it needs two more years before it is ready. I suppose in the meantime the Spirit of St. Louis and Enola Gay will be given a tune up to help fill the void. This quick trigger voting habit that Congress has really isn't going so well these days.
