Canada could be building these if our CAF bought Canadian instead of USA.
They can do what the Boeing jets the CAF bought from the USA do and a lot more.

Of the retired generals who signed on recommending the F35 I wonder how many have Lockheed stock in their portfolio. Will Canada let history repeat itself like they did with the Aveo Arrow and once again cave to US interests.
