CV32 Posted September 22, 2015 Author Report Share Posted September 22, 2015 Canadian Liberals Would Scrap F-35 Buy (Aviation Week) I lack words to adequately describe my disdain for the Fiberal (er, Liberal) Party but I will admit, having a proper competition to select a CF-18 replacement that actually meets the mission needs should have been done from the start.
