When you reach numbers like this, one has to wonder, why even bother?
Given that these F-35 are supposed to be replacing their F-16 fleet...... 37 x F-35 is only one more than the number of F-16's the RNLAF has lost from it's fleet over the past 30 years
So, how long will it take the RNLAF to get to a fleet of 0 x F-35......and what happens once the F-35 lines are shut down and your attrition rate of your small numbers of 'wonderjet' are such that it's an unsustainable fleet....?
Madness......
