[quote]The aircraft is currently estimated to have a combat mission radius of [b]584 nautical miles, just short of the required 590 nautical miles[/b], according to a Selected Acquisition Report dated Dec. 31. [b][u]Program officials had previously estimated that the aircraft, unrefueled, would be able to strike targets 690 nautical miles away.[/u][/b][/quote] 
100 miles nautiques de moins (185 kilomètres environ), c´est pas rien. 

[quote]The report says the shortfall is caused by increased use of engine bleed air and fuel capacity issues "[b]that are not yet fully known.[/b]"[/quote] La précision du truc quoi!  :bonnet: 

Pour les autres versions: [quote]The report says the range estimates have also been cut for the Marine Corps' short take-off B-model and the Navy's carrier-base C-model. But those planes' ranges still exceed the requirements. 
The B-model has a radius of 469 nautical miles and a requirement of 450; the C-model, 615 and 600.[/quote][/quote]
