Your good. They updated the one from the 28th with one from the 29th. When they do that, and the article is locked out (Red Padlock.) it drops the previous one into the text so that only
paid subscribers can access the full document. They're good but not JANE's good to where I'd pay for it. It's still a good source but for major programs it's getting harder and forces me to look elsewhere for "hot" issues when all I can access is the update where Israel is upping their buy to 50 F-35 fighters.
What I posted was the update concerning a sub contractor having manufacturing issues in the cooling parts related to a key electrical suite which caused the grounding of many F-35A fighters this past summer. Also another milestone has been reached and it looks like the USAF will probably get more F-35A fighters.
So again "
red padlock" you'll only be able to read the update. Eventually they will unlock the story and when that happens it's "pad of paper & pen time" and take notes on any new data I didn't already have.
Here's a supplement for the F-35...

And while I'm at it I've been watching this one for
many years as well, the real big deal here is the AESA radar.

So because China been "misbehaving" the above country will get those F-16 fighters brought up to the F-16V platform which is the most advanced version of the F-16. China blew it here (Though N. Korea doesn't get off lightly either.) Because our Congress for years has blocked any significant improvements to these F-16's so as not to upset China.
