Description
Plans to replace Canada's ageing fleet of CF-18 fighter jets are no longer up in the air. The Conservative government put an end to years of suspense in July, heralding a commitment to spend $9 billion acquiring a new generation of fighter aircraft from Lockheed Martin. Canada is one of eight countries that have been partnering with the United States to develop the F-35 Lightning II jet with Lockheed Martin through the Joint Strike Fighter (JSF) program. The F-35 is a single-seat, single-engine stealth multi-role aircraft that can perform close air support for ground troops, bombing and air intercept missions.
