Biggest issue likely to be debate over weapon system - or more precisely, future weapon system.
Because it'll be a clean sheet airframe with likely long range / ToS, there shouldn't be the same compromises forced on SuperBug or F35C. As long as you're at or below the spot factor of an F14 it'll be fine.
What is likely to cause extended debate / argument is what provision (space, weight and electrical power) is made for anything exotic weapons wise, given likely service out to 2060.
