Britain’s Royal Air Force chief talks F-35 tally and divesting equipment

Trim_Stab,

LM have covered that possibility. They have advised that the space taken up by the boom on the B/C models is left unused on the A model (and presumably filled by a suitable weight), so that fitting a probe isn’t a problem if a customer requests it.

I presume that means the UARRSI is left in place, making the aircraft dual capable.
