And on the same day that the article above appears, the MoD announces
British-armed F-35B Lightning jet takes to the skies
- referring to the first F-35B flight with MBDA ASRAAMs
https://www.gov.uk/government/news/b...s-to-the-skies
But it seems from the pictures that ASRAAMS can only be carried externally. Does that make MoD's reference to
Britain's new stealth fighter
a bit optimistic?
