If choosing version B over version C means there are now prospects of having planes on the flight decks of our carriers in 2018 rather than 2023, and of being able to choose to operate both carriers rather than mothballing one of them, then that surely is a good thing. |
agreed but there is new player we would be fools to rule out. Russian claim cheaper at 47-57m us dollars with stealth technology. Considering we looking at upto 6 times the cost with F-35b.
Should we take the russian version.
It might not be best fighter but more buck for your money might be crazy not to consider.
