Wrong statement

Odd how alleged big-players in Defence wonkery are so ill informed:

The most difficult trade-off for Australia will come in a decision a future government will make about cutting the numbers of the Joint Strike Fighter aircraft to accommodate the Super Hornets.

It’s a difficult choice between a capable fourth-generation fighter aircraft already in production and the higher risk but even more capable fifth-generation JSF.

In fact, the Super Hornet has tangible capability. The F-35 has proven no such ability.
