Tourist,
Statements from all politicians are always up for modification.
As I explained in a previous #9523, available money will be the deciding factor as to how many will be produced. Just sit back and watch how the US DOD deals with the bind they put themselves in, the politicians already left their imprint by spreading out the supplier base on a complex, pie in the sky program out over most of the US and some of the rest of the world, resulting in at least a 5 year delay. Delay = +cost $$$s and less produced product.
