Cancellation/delay of JSF wouldn't have an immediate effect on operations in the sand pits, however:-
Cancellation/delay of A400M would put these ops at considerable risk as the AT fleet cannot cope now!
If A400M is cancelled we'd better start buying wings for the C130Ks and look at some fatique-reducing options for the 'new' C130Js that are already approaching outer-wing fatigue life.
