At appx £200m an aircraft ,with Spitfires /Seafires on the market at £2m each,I think it would be much better if this F-35 was ditched and we bought some quality aircraft instead....Much better for the anoraks,sound better,look better,quantity over perhaps quality;;; As the USAF blame the pilot for the loss of an F-22,because of a design failure,what will happen when someone ditches one of these `wonderful`5th generation warbirds..... What a `waste of space`; who are we presumed to be going up against anyway..? China..? NKorea..? bunch of Somali pirates ?
