Here is the thread on the subject. I'm an interested observer at best, but the F-35 seems to be best utilized in conjuction with the F-22, which the Americans are keeping to themselves, if I understand correctly. That and the F-35 keeps going up in projected costs.
I've wondered on occasion what the point of having an identical fleet to the Americans, at 1/100 the size, really brings to NORADs table. Shouldn't we diversify for an Arctic environment, if that is our main nationalistic concern?
