In recent years the Pentagon has increasingly been developing the F-35 for a wide swath of intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance (ISR) missions.
Tracking ballistic missiles in space, finding incoming anti-ship missiles and offering forward video-datalink images of enemies from safe stand-off distances are all missions perhaps not typically thought of for the F-35.
However, in recent years the Pentagon has increasingly been developing the F-35 for a wide swath of intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance (ISR) missions. The idea would be to leverage its advanced suite of long-range sensors and targeting technologies. In fact, it would not be a stretch to say that the F-35 can function as a long-range drone, aerial relay node, missile tracker or surveillance plane.
Its 360-degree surround cameras, called the Distributed Aperture System, and its long-range Electro-Optical infrared targeting technologies were initially conceived as a way to inform pilots about far away enemy aircraft and provide navigational information to empower its multi-role attack mission set.

Update: Could This Be America's Most Expensive Combat Drone Ever? (Zero Hedge)
WNU Editor: The F-35 has range limitations. A long range drone is not in the cards for the F-35.

Too bad it can't fly in the rain or snow. Or just about any other time. It's a real bargain for the taxpayer.
In other news, President Biden said "“Our army manned the air, it rammed the ramparts, it took over the airports, it did everything it had to do, and at Fort McHenry, under the rockets’ red glare, it had nothing but victory,”
He's really losing it.

WNU: FYI big protest planned today in Chicago. Planning to march on the freeway / shut it down then march into downtown. Biggest organized protest in a while here so could get interesting. Going to involve state police in addition to CPD. Starting any time now.

The citizens of Chicago could pick a black woman (a mother), married or unmarried, at random and do nor worse than Lori Lightheaded. Over 1/2 the time they would do better than Mayor Lightheaded. That is how bad the mayor is.
Lori Lightheaded took a good yearbook picture and no doubt was bright and personable, but something happened on the way to adulthood, in college, or thereafter to make her the stupid ass she is today.
As far as today's protest goes it seems to be a dud. Hardly anyone showed up.
It is summer, so some people are enjoying the last good 2 months of the year. October can be cold in Chicago.
Some people already "gave at the office."
The Dicto-crat riots slush fund is low.
But wait until night. For some reason the 'protesters' Dim-o-crats most rely on to apply pressure are those that come out after sundown and commit arson and assault. I never understood why 'protest' had to held long after midnight and the bars are closed. Or why 'protesters' needed U-hauls. Surely Demoncrats have a reason.
That was hardly rain or snow lol
I said October can be brutal as in rain or snow. That is a mere 45 days away. So maybe just maybe people are getting their summer fun out of the way instead of protesting.
They do not call it the Windy City for nothing.
