The cause of this F-15 falling apart was a faulty ” longeron ” (stringer) behind the cockpit, due to corrosion. This corrosion could have cost the pilot his life. Faulty F-15′s could cost America our defense and the lives of thousands and perhaps millions of Americans. Who supports our troops? Who is sucking all of the money out of the defense budgets? The funding for our defense ought to be used to defend us, not line the pocket of Defense Equipment Contractors and politicians.
