        Is that because of Brexit as well?

        Meanwhile the rancid leftist BBC reports on 1st F35 landings aboard HMS Queen Elizabeth. But in the most negative way it can. We need to equip these ships properly and rebuild our other denuded forces too. Time to cut £5bn pa from the overbloated, mis-spent overseas aid budget!

        @blair_gervus As a former RAF pilot, it's a situation always encountered, with new generation aircraft, also as it was with the MRCA,( Panavia Tornado) programme in the 1970's. As the F35 programme progresses, i'm confident that initial problems will solved

        There have been problems with the f-35 for years. So much so, that the gov had to make ALL of the issues top secret. It should be scrapped. The f-35 is trash.
