JSFan..
yes - currently any of them that are allowed to fly.
when a British - or Australian - PM can pick up the phone to his CAS and say 'i have a problem, and i want it to dissapear in a ball of smoke and flame', and that CAS has the ability to use an F-35 that will make the PM's wish come to fruition quicker, from further away, with greater accuracy and efficacy, and in a way that poses less risk to the crew than is currently the case than with a Typhoon, GR4 or Super Hornet, then the F-35 will be 'better' than any of those aircraft.
however, until it does so - and the current money is on about 2020 at the very earliest - it will be ****, because it delivers fcuk all capability.
