      an F-16 vs a paraglider

      The problem with the US investing in paraglider tech is that it's hard to justify why the program costs ~$2,000,000,000,000 yet there are still problems. How do you explain to an angry public the "Goldilocks Zone" phenomenon whereby the heavily overburdened "pig with wings" paragliders crash catastrophically if the wind is just a little too weak or just a little too strong.
