First, I thought the article analyzing the two competing ATF designs
was wonderful.  That's why I read this newsgroup.  Thanks.

Second, what ARE the Navy's future aircraft plans now that the A-12 is
dead?  Are they going to try and adapt the ATF (which could be
difficult for a number of reasons, but also have many advantages IF
they could succeed)?

Do they have any other designs in the wings (ha ha) or are they going
to make do with the F-18 and the Harrier?  Last I heard, the F-14 was
already half-way out the door.
