Navy F-35 Joint Strike Fighter -vs- Navy Robot Plane

     Maryland - A United States Navy (USN) spokesperson recently announced the F-35 Joint Strike Fighter (JSF) may likely be the last strike-fighter flown by the USN.  A strike fighter is a primarily ground attack plane with some air-to-air capability. 
     Citing unmanned systems as a key element of needed innovation in a fast-changing global technological environment, Navy Secretary Ray Mabus says, he plans to start up a new Navy office for unmanned systems, and appoint a new Deputy Assistant Secretary of the Navy for Unmanned Systems.  The new office, called N-9, will seek to streamline various unmanned system efforts and technology.  See also, www.aviationweek.com.
