We have Poland, as well as Switzerland interested in purchasing more of the Jet, one man’s loss is another man’s gain….add Canada to that list..

That doesn't make sense. You said it's excellent that Canada and Portugal might not buy U.S. fighter jets. (And, btw, Switzerland is having second thoughts about the F-35 purchase.)

How is losing customers excellent?

The B's know nothing about how learning and rate affect price. Become acquainted with the work of Hermann Ebbinghaus and Theodore Paul Wright. Their work is used in every aerospace project today. Cancelling production lots the size of Canada's will increase costs across the board for all F-35 buyers, both initial purchase price and subsequent sustainment costs.

Probably not. Rather I expect more prospective customers to look elsewhere. It would not surprise me to see Canada ask to join GCAP.

From someone who never flew a tactical jet, has no idea what kinds of missions it is designed for and what it can actually do. The people who do know are not blogging about it. All I can say is that if you think of it as a traditional air superiority dog fighter you have no idea how the F-35 goes about it's job. It exists for ground attack against targets no fourth gen aircraft could touch. It is the heir to the F117 but with air to air capability. If it is even detected there had to be a lot of mistakes in the mission plan and / or its execution. The pilot's situational awareness is far beyond that of any other modern combat jet.

Trump has lost 5 trillion dollars of US wealth,by opening his big mouth

Our hope is that more countries should follow through. I hate to state the obvious but America is the most hated country in the world, and not only the the warmongering around the world

Japan should strike while the iron is hot and get Canada to join their Japan/UK/Italy fighter jet program.
