EPISODE 46
AMERICA’S NEW F-35, WITH JUSTIN LEE
The F-35 is our fancy new stealth fighter, and we got Justin Lee AKA Hasard to talk with us about what makes the new 5th-generation jet special, how we use it as a force multiplier, what John Boyd would probably say about it, the differences between a flying solo versus a crew-served aircraft like Jim is used to, and what kind of coaching he gives to new Fighter Pilots as an instructor.
Justin is also the host of The Professional’s Playbook podcast, which Mike was a guest on to talk about being on a SWAT team.
