Norwegian link says: "...The F-35 has the same communications capabilities as today’s F-16s.”

“Norway continually assesses the F-35’s technology planned for F-35 integrations. We are also considering alternative options to secure communications over longer distances. This can be varying forms of satellite-based communications, or indeed other types. It is still too early to say anything about the final solution. Initially, it will on the same level as today’s, and improved gradually.”"

IF the Canuks are not buying the F-35 does this comm problem devolve to successor aircraft? Link is from 2011 BTW.
