Williams Foundation Flacks

You can read this nonsense marketing effort from the gone-native-to-Lockheed Martin talking points Williams Foundation.

To date, no one has figured out how an F-35...sorry a working F-35...will defeat an F-22 or Typhoon in practice combat.

This is the acid test to determine if the F-35 will survive in the Pac Rim over its alleged lifetime.
