F-35: The World’s Best Fighter? Hell Yes

Summary

Daniel Goure writing in 19FortyFive, makes the following points;

• Canada was one of the original countries in the JSF consortium (planning to buy 100 aircraft), investing hundreds of millions in its development.
• The Trudeau government went to open tender, ultimately deciding the F35 was the best option.
• The decision by Germany to purchase the F35 came after assessing the Eurofighter and the time needed for Germany to develop a German sixth-generation fighter.
