Too bad the press release doesn't mention Ada, just that they
felt it was a successful development cycle. Of course the proof
is in the flying.

There was a flyoff between the YF22 and the YF23, which the YF22
won. What were they doing for flight software on the flyoff? I
could believe hacked F16 software, or something like that, except
isn't the F22 the first plane to use thrust vectoring?

It seems about time for CJIII to jump in, with these Ada success
stories showing up. (for rebuttal, of course)
