You can park it anywhere.  No pesky airstrips to construct/maintain/be a giant, high profile target etc.

Fly it over the bad guys back yard and put the fear of god in them, that'll do it.

well, when Hollywood redoes "True Lies" in 15-ish years, they can then have a new Ah-nold fly it and crush a Florida trooper car and have people jumping on it while flying in the city with it and all that unbelievable stuff again since the Harrier will be extinct....

F-35 will cost 30 to 40 percent more to maintain than current jet fighters

In 2008, it was reported that in a simulated war game a Russian Sukhoi Su-35 fighters defeated the F-35

Russians already found it (VTOL) to be a waste in there version, the YAK-141

The one thing that this chunk of crap does really well is line someones pockets.

You can look up the alternate engine design tale of woe for the F-35 as well. Living in DC both sides of the issue were running radio and print ads... Lots of money being spent on a solution (it seems) no one had asked for.
