Old News

When the newest public source of the deficiency you're talking about is three years old, I tend to think that it's been addressed by now.

Why do I think that?

Oh, I dunno...

Because I've watched this pattern for as long as I can remember.

I've lost track of the number of "fatally" flawed programs which worked just fine when used for realsies.

We're back on the topic of the F-35A and its gun.

The author is complaining that the USAF has done no testing of the GAU-22/A ammunition...

Well, since the gun is a GAU-12/U sans a barrel, that means that the testing the USMC did of the 25x137mm ammo is still valid.  Never mind that the US Army has been using the round since 1981...
