Default RE: Time for the Eagle to step down.

But then there's the issue that Congress doesn't want to pay for more than a couple and the flight control system is based on the long outdated i960 processor, etc., etc. The Eagle may not be the top of the pyramid anymore, but its going to be around for a long time, I'd bet! Heck, some guys are still working on updating that old war horse the A10! At least I've heard that, but I'm not sure its true...
