<p>My beef with some upper leadership (take with a grain of salt since I am only a 20 y/o USAFA cadet whereas they’ve been doing these jobs for 30 years…) is that they seem to concentrate TOO much on the present conditions. Going crazy on acquiring UAVs and claiming we have no need for new generation fighters. All well and good to take care of the situation we’re in, but can we afford to slack on future tech if other nations are developing better aircraft than us?</p>
