[edit] Temporary Redirection

Fighter mafia is redirected for now to this article, which is a very similar topic, until I or someone else can rewrite. Leaving the content in the source so it can be edited upon soon. The current article has many glaring problems:

Claims it was a group of officers. Many, including Christie and Sprey, were civilian defense analysts.
Claimed it shaped specifications for the F-4E, unsupported by the sources provided here and chronologically off with the supposed coining of the term in 1969, after the purchase of the F-4E
Boyd is far more than an "instructor pilot"
Their position was not based on deficiencies in existing aircraft but in Boyd's E-M, which provided a framework to demonstrating that there were deficiencies - and moreso in the new designs under development in the 1960's than the in-service designs. Important distinction.

As LWF contains a fairly detailed history that encompasses E-M, it's a suitable substitute for now. --Mmx1 01:43, 11 August 2006 (UTC)
