Depends on when that picture was taken.
Released today doesn't necessarily mean taken today.

This is from US Army's 'Visual Aircraft Recognition' manual released last month. A link to the PDF is .
I'm utterly speechless. Was this a Freudian slip?
Did they hire Axe and Majumdar as consultants because they couldn't afford Deino?
I want my tax dollars back.

That is an unbelievable mistake.
Its not as simple as someone inserting the wrong image, the WEFT description seems to be all mixed up also.
The F35 doesn't have twin engines, but the description doesn't really fit the J20 well either.
I am utterly confused as to what exactly happened.
On a side note, that identification manual seems to almost entirely omitted Chinese combat aircraft, with the only exception being the ancient Q5.
Seems very odd also.

To be fair, who identifies aircraft visually anymore? Radars have taken up that role.
This is a truly amazing document. It contains many aircraft you will only find in a museum ( Yak-38 anyone? ). The drawings are mostly terribly distorted. I think the responsible minister should be fired. If this is possible any "mistake" is possible.This is from US Army's 'Visual Aircraft Recognition' manual released last month. A link to the PDF is .

If that is the explanation Ashton Carter deserves to be fired.

Never underestimate the genius of idiots. This is so idiotic that I can't even work out how these mistakes were made in the first place. It would take a David Axe to unravel the mystery.
I had thought this was possibly a satirical criticism of the F-35 program, until I noticed that it calls the canards 'tail fins mounted forward on the fuselage'. It's like saying a car turns using rear wheels mounted forward on the car body.
Truly bizarre...
Nah! Just BHO and Hillary!, and make Bob Gates burn all the remaining copies of his book!
BHO regime, passing the "torch" to Hillary! LOL this whole administration is run this way?? I mean really, has anybody taken a stab at reading the Obamacare handbook??????
