Future of F-22 Raptor and F-35 Lightning II - Popular Mechanics
"Now that the F-22 is canceled (freezing the fleet at 186 airplanes), the F-35 program faces even more scrutiny.
Aerospace analysts, press and the discussion-board community frequently ask why a superior airplane like the F-22 is being axed while the problematic F-35 limps along during development.
Secretary of the Air Force Michael Donley said this week that the F-35 would not be ready until 2015, rather than 2013."
