Five of six F-35 fighter jets were unable to take off during testing because
of software glitches but the Air Force still plans to declare the aircraft
combat-ready this year
Only one F-35 fighter jet was able to successfully take off during
exercise
J Michael Gilmore, the Pentagon's chief weapons tester, said the other
five planes weren't able to take off because of software issues
Gilmore said a 'symptom of immature systems and software prevented the
other alert launches from being completed'
Despite issues Air Force plans to declare F-35s combat-ready later in
year http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-3566388/Five-six-F-35-f
