35 Times More Feces in F-35

I remember Canada had a plan to renew its aging FA-18 squadron back to the time Peter MacKay was the Defense Minister. It was just a short period of time that he was in the office but it finally didn't happen, fortunately. F-35s were considered at the time. So happy that the Prime Minister just announced that Canada will purchase replacement fighter planes from Sweden
A product cannot be judged by one single failure but everyone does that. Don't they? If you buy a faulty computer from a specific manufacturer, what would you do? You return it, if you could and then stay the hell away from that brand, as long as you can. It's proven that one F-35 was hit during the recent attacks by the US forces over Iran, by the air defense system in that country and that jet is supposed to be stealth and we know that Iranian military doesn't use much advanced equipment. What does that tell you about the US $82.5 million jet?! You would ask yourself whether you should spend that much money on such a piece of crap which could be hit by a few thousands of dollars ground-to-air missiles! 
The thing is the US $82.5 plane is just a basic model, I would say. Hundreds of thousands would come after that for spare parts, maintenance, training, you name it. One shall think what they get themselves into before thinking about this so-called stealth. 
(Photo: F-35 is seem to be taking off almost vertically here of maybe landing and it seems it is on an aircraft career. One thing is clear: It's not as advanced as they say and it's too expensive too!)
