>For example, if a pilot makes a sharp stick move to turn the plane, the control law software now results in a gentler turn to prevent problems such as — and including — dig-in.
So it has input lag.

Maybe they can buy the gun DLC later.
>For now F-35 pilots “will be forced to fly much closer to engage ground targets and, depending on the threat level of enemy air defenses and acceptable mission risk, it may be limited to engaging ground targets that are defended by only short-range air defenses, or by none at all.”
They don't get it, the intent is to provide pilots with a sense of pride and accomplishment.
yeah I remember that whole PR disaster with the F35, but the norwegian pilots are not so negative
this official "blog" post by norways first F35 instructor is from that period in early 2016 http://nettsteder.regjeringen.no/kampfly/2016/03/01/f-35-i-naerkamp-hva-har-jeg-laert-sa-langt-the-f-35-in-a-dogfight-what-have-i-learned-so-far/
english version of the article starts after the norwegian text
and I also remember 3 months later when a US pilot for the first time was beaten 100% by an artificial intelligence pilot operating the same equipment
"When Geno took manual control of the blue aircraft against
the reds controlled by the baseline controller AFRL had previously
been utilizing, he could easily defeat it. However, even after repeated
attempts against the more mature version of ALPHA, not only could
he not score a kill against it, he was shot out of the air by the reds every
time after protracted engagements. He described ALPHA as “the most
aggressive, responsive, dynamic and credible AI (he’s) seen-to-date.”"
Pentagon wars

Not sure if I should spend a chunk of my enlistment bonus to buy my first gun.
You always have the option of buying after a need for it arises.
lol
I probably won't be too worried living on an air base
I'm thinking of going with the Walther PPQ Crowder was talking about. He got me sold on it.
I was hoping around $500 as I'm pretty sure the enlistment bonus is 2k but I'm fine with the $650 price tag on the PPQ. https://www.galleryofguns.com/genie/default.aspx?item=2796066
looks like there are some different variations but I'm not sure what to look for really
I'm curious why an extra inch of barrel length adds a hundred dollars...
anybody got an infographic / internet resource / youtube video for understanding different caliber bullets?
What kind?
Rifle
