In any case the USAF made a huge mistake by not doing a follow on order for more C 17's to keep the production line going.
Neither the USAF nor the USN is cutting back their F-35 programmes of record. The USAFis, however, reconsidering its F-15EX numbers downwards, while the USN is wanting the cancel Super Hornet Block 3 to fund NGAD.
Still, all for a other thread.
