I have to admit, I was surprised by this one.

For a long time, I've been predicting that unless Boeing completely screwed up, they'd win the JSF competition. Apparently not. Unless there's some form of split production, this will leave Lockheed-Martin as the sole producer of tactical aircraft for the US. I still don't think that's a good situation.

All may not be rosy in JSF-land, though. The GAO thinks the JSF technology just isn't ready. According to Aerospace Daily, the loser (Boeing) will still gain. We'll see.
