I was listening or reading something today, probably, saying that the Canadian military can stock pile parts because they will need so much work done after however flight hours but the military would not actually own the parts until they were installed in the jets. So there could be a part stock piled up here and the US could decide they need it and bam order it to come back even though our jets will need it.

I know I am just an arm chair general but the Saab jets are looking like a better choice than the CF35’s. Sure pilots will need to be trained on a completely new system rather than an updated old system, but the military has not even started the training on the CF35’s
