>Drones will rule the skies about the time the F35 becomes truly combat ready as well.

Completely agree, look at taranis, and the french version... they will produce combat ready drones before the F35 is ready...

That is what I think is the secret plan for the aircraft carriers.. don't buy many F35's, just load up the decks with drones! still need the support crews, still need the pilots, but you don't loose the pilots when the drones get shot down, or a 'software failure' brings it down!
