The JSF is probably the right replacement for the CF-18 fleet. Plus with its STOL and VTOL performance it could be deployed to many more remote locations around our country should the need arise.
If the navy is getting new ships, the RCAF is due these new fighters. I'm all for a small well equiped armed forces. If they do sign off on the JSF then they will be in pretty good shape:
-JSF
-C-17 Globemasters
-New Hercules J models (first one just arrived a few days ago)
