"More than $2.8 billion was to be set aside in the next fiscal budget to purchase the stealthy jet fighter, but that would instead be used to continue its development, reports said."

Hope it makes it that much better. I was hoping I'd see them at Hill AFB (If it becomes a facility to host them) before I move out of Utah.

Hmm...interesting. According to this, I did read "Along with Hill, <AHEM> the other proposed basing alternatives include Mountain Home AFB, Idaho; Burlington Air Guard Station, Vt.; Shaw AFB, S.C.; and Jacksonville Air Guard Station, Fla."
