Elon Musk Advocates for Drones Over F-35 Fighter Jets

Elon Musk criticized the F-35 Lightning II fighter jet, advocating for the use of armed drones instead. His comments sparked debate, with aviation experts defending the F-35's capabilities and noting its superiority over current drone technology. While drones are increasingly effective in modern warfare, experts argue that they cannot yet replace the advanced technology and firepower of the F-35.
