Awakening to a decade of defence failure

Now others are finally catching up with the fact that Australia's JSF program is in deep trouble, there's no excuse for politicians not to act. But there's also a solution Four Corners did not canvass.

Watching the JSF mistakes unveiled on the ABC's Four Corners last night was almost like watching the last 10 years of my life unfolding before me.

During that time I have been writing about the problems of the joint strike fighter, first in The Australian newspaper and then in Business Spectator (Shooting down lies from the sky, February 15).
