Marine F-35s grounded due to software concerns

WASHINGTON – F-35B joint strike fighters based at Yuma Air Station in
Arizona have been temporarily grounded due to issues with a key support
system.

The issue centers on the stealth jet's Autonomic Logistics Information
System, or ALIS, The software behind ALIS is woven through the F-35, and
plays a vital role in everything from planning missions to maintenance. In
April, ALIS 2.0.2 was installed on F-35A models and Navy F-35C models, but
was delayed in getting out to the F-35B jump-jet variants.


Military contracting,


Just what happens when you start making things way too complicated.
Still happy about those self driving cars?


More like Government contracting. Not military. Same government you want
contracting your healthcare. California spent about $500 million on a new
DMV computer system. Never worked, did not get the money back.
