Thanks for the clarification.
Aah indeed, pray do tell, what you think is logical/likely/probable/ with the present situation of the UK being a major partners/customers, and British crews participating in the development of the F-35? But to assuage the critical quibbler in you, I should have qualified this with 'it will probably’ 'it is likely that’ ‘perhaps this might’. I somehow doubt that this will satisfy as a number of your post indicate but it will have to do.
