Interesting snippet in the latest AW&ST article about the Works memo and the possibility of either the B or C being cancelled. Looks like the B is no longer considered a viable option and the Rafale M is rearing it's head...

.........If the F-35C were to be canceled, the U.K. would withdraw from the program and "look for a European solution" to it's requirement for a carrier fighter, a senior U.K. official said in Washington earlier this month....
