F-35 industry missing out on orders

Governments--in this example; Canada--can spin how great home industry effort is for the F-35 program, yet there is the simple fact that there are a lot of missing orders for the SMEs (those critical jobs that are very fragile under this high risk program).

The subdued red field in the chart below shows what industry was promised is quite a bit different than what is happening. That is a lot of missing orders. Corporate carcasses indeed.
