Dear Australian Governments

spend our money on a Country perimeter missile system. And instead of buying fighter / bomber jets like the F-35 for on $173 million each, spend the money on smaller AUV jets that carry 2 Air-to-air missiles. Say they are $2 million each you get 86 for the price of ONE F-35.

Now imagine Mr Bogey Man in an F-35. He has about 6 missiles. We send 10 UAV jets, so 20 missiles up against them. With differing flight patterns and Angle of attack, which do you think would win? And say Mr Bogey Man gets his 6 kills, we lose $12 million and most likely Mr Bogey Man loses $173 million.

Equip the jet UAV with Air to Ground and you have an immense capability.

Cheaper, personnel risk is zero and manufacturing would be far simpler.

But that's only me with my forward thinking.
