    The AV8B switched to dual digital fuel control units.



    I will have to dig out some of my old pictures for you guys.
    Ahh I didn't know that. I knew the AV8B used a lot of fly by wire and I think it was 8 computers with multiple redundancy. Old McDonnell did a lot to improve the design not the least of which was lengthening the wing.

      The JSF is Amazing. You can take take your hand off the stick in a hover and the aircraft will stablize itself. Unheard of with the harrier.
      Did your company play any part in the development or was it strictly Lockheed and BAE?

        We were doing something with the antenna which was similar to the F22 but the program was cancelled or put on hold or something. Here is the stearable beam antenna that we make for the F22 http://www.emsdss.com/airterr/ant_data_link.asp

              Have you seen the Predator B that will be buzzing over our borders now:



              San Diego's General Atomics Aeronautical Systems has already released the Predator B to start patrolling the Mexican border for illegals coming across.

              From the USAF website:

              "Predator B has an operational ceiling of 50,000ft and a maximum internal payload of 800lb and external payload of over 3,000lb. Predator B has been flight tested with Hellfire II anti-armour missiles and can carry up to 14 missiles."

              The one patrolling the border will not be equipped with any weapons though.
