| Tribuni Angusticlavii | Well, the JSF has already been developed, and with the F-22 just coming into service, why not have aging fighters up to snuff? By the way, would you care to elaborate on what sorts of upgrades they are putting on the F-16?

| Fridgeraider (Instructor) | Well it doesn't have to be completely out of human reach. All you need is a human controller on the ground with a virtual cockpit... hell maybe for the first time with a full sphereical line of sight.

| Tribuni Angusticlavii | Those have already been developed. I think they have spherical control rooms with the Global Hawk. |

| Fridgeraider (Instructor) | The era of human controlled jets is pretty much history. The next generation of manned jets will really be the last. Future pilots will really be the best flight sim computer gamers. |

| Immunes | It should be a long time before the new aircraft supplies its service,And I think USA force will improve current aircrafts' capability before the time. And also,those countries equiped with F15,F16 and F18 wannar improve their aircrafts' power. They can pay for those updates.
