lol, they've been "working on" this boondoggle since before Super Mario 64 came out. Toy Story, like the original Toy Story, came out that year. This was the cell phone they used when development started:

In that time they have probably spent more on this plane's development than every video game, movie, and cell phone combined...

And it still has been less effective for combat than the 767 (sorry, this joke is a week late, I'll be more timely in the future)

This would make a great comedy movie! Drunk driving, everyone knows, drunk sailing, there is a term in my language...drunk flying? I would drink if I would have to fly imperialistic murder machines!
