Billions of dollars out the window with this jet. Every contractor should be held accountable for their faulty equipment the American people pay for. The F-35 development cost alone could have ended homelessness in America. But we spent all that money on a jet that isn't combat worthy?!
And one more thing. If you don't hold defense contractors accountable, they have zero interest in providing an effective machine or service.
