DND costing figures on the F-35 are wrong

This is an update to a previous post about how the Canadian DND numbers and flawed theory in relation to an attempt to acquire the F-35 are not credible. I have created a new chart that is a better apples-to-apples comparison of the DND figures for 20 years of aircraft maintenance.

It is unfortunate that it had to come to this. No matter what F-35 partner nation it is (along with the U.S.) Lockheed Martin talking points are often substituted for real analysis. There are a few exceptions but not many.

Amazing how close your estimate is to that Parliamentary Report, released almost a year ago.
