posted by Paul Hamill on December 7, 2011 at 5:35 pm
The Hill picks up on August Cole’s tweets from earlier this week:
“McCain in hot pursuit of F-35 program kill,” August Cole, an adjunct fellow at the American Security Project, a non-partisan think tank, tweeted this week. “He and powerful staff, once locked on, won’t give up.
“Future of U.S. tactical airpower is tied to politics, not strategy: does the F-35 … have more friends or enemies in Congress in 2012?” Cole tweeted.
August Cole is an Adjunct Fellow here at ASP, who has written on the defense industry and national security strategy for many leading news outlets, including the Wall Street Journal
