Still wondering when it will be cancelled.
Some interesting nuggets in there: ".....The production total is comprised of 283 F-35A, 87 F-35B and 30 F-35C deliveries. The 200,000 flight hours includes all F-35s in the fleet comprised of developmental test jets, training, operational, U.S. and international aircraft. Among the three variants, approximately 125,850 hours were flown by the F-35A, 52,410 hours by the F-35B and 22,630 by the F-35C...."

Seems like the C's are flying a lot. With 22,000+ hours on 30 airframes....
