Let's try this again...
The JSF program was an open competition between Lockheed Martin and Boeing.
The program to replace Canada's aging CF-18 fleet
was not an open competition. We chose the Joint Strike Fighter (F-35) without looking at any other options or allowing competing manufacturers to submit bids.
