As long as we donโ€™t buy used, because large-scale milspec equipment is sold as used for a reason. Good hardware is used until it is scrapped or boneyarded as a source of parts. Consistent lemons are sold off before their operational lifespans end, and are not boneyarded for parts.

With the budget cuts in CAF, I doubt we'll be getting new ones. I think this is our PM posturing to appease NATO. Just like the F-35, this is going to be a gong-show.
