JSFFan With all your undoubted knowledge of the subject could you please lay out in a cogent manner the differences between the EW suites that are presently installed on such aircraft as the Rafale and the proposed suite of tools that will be when all goes to plan on the F35 after the Block 3 updates.
It would be interesting to see how much more advanced the F35 will be, according to you, than present 4.5 generation aircraft.
I seem to remember seeing somewhere that in principle there is no reason that the F35 suites could not be retrofitted on a "legacy" air frame, which I suppose would level the playing field on day two of a war when there is good layered air defense. Do you agree?
