A pretty good column on the Canadian Fighter Jet Replacement including the news that Boeing is in on the bid

Really a couple of interesting points including that Lockheed Martin would submit bids on two possible aircraft, The F-35 and an upgraded version of the F-16.

One to follow would be that UK has submitted a bid to Belgium to replace their old F-16's with the Eurofighter Typhoon. This places it in direct competition with the F-35. Dassault and Saab have already dropped out.
