The event was a milestone for the Fighter Optimization eXperiment, or FoX, a project that seeks to rapidly integrate advanced software and hardware technologies to maximize the F-35’s lethality and survivability, while creating an agile development test tool and fielded combat multiplier for all Defense Department aircraft.
“In order to stay competitive, we have to innovate,” said Lt. Col. Raven LeClair. “It’s as simple as that. We are trying to find ways to go faster for less money, to bring more capability per dollar, and to push more capabilities to the warfighter more quickly … We want to shift timelines from capabilities being fielded in years to being fielded in a matter of months or weeks; both hardware and software.”

Ridgecrest Daily Independent
A 20-year-old Navy serviceman was charged in late March with raping a minor, according to the Kern County Superior Court website. The alleged victim is a 15-year-old girl from Ridgecrest.
The Kern County court website shows that charges were filed against Matthew Paul Foxhall on March 30 for unlawful sexual intercourse, sexual penetration with a foreign object/etc. with a victim under 18 years and oral copulation with a victim under 18 years. All three charges are felonies.
The charges stem from Foxhall s arrest on March 27 by the Ridgecrest Police Department. Foxhall was later released on $125,000 bail.
