Yes I see your
I have two ideas:
A. It's the only show in town.
B. Sunk costs.
As I recall these arguments were made for the B2 and the F22 as the only show in town and that the USAF could not possibly exist without 132 B2s however 21 were eventually procured and for the F22 the initial plan was 750 and 187 operational planes have been procured.
My point was, is it not likely that the Pentagon, under political pressure, will like it did with the B2 and F22 decide that it possibly does not need and cannot afford quite so many F35s?
