No, just not worth wasting my time responding with anything but a sigh.
I'm pretty sure the politics experiment is not going to survive though…

Probably going to get yellow carded for that last post, but the level of regulatory BS is getting out of hand. Our company was recently asked by a customer to verify that we were not engaging in slave labor, and ensuring that our suppliers weren't either.
Very few...I think they still have Phantoms at the boneyard.
So there's an option.
Ramping up??Regarding the OP, isn't F-35 production still ramping up?
Ramping up??
Over 750 built
3 production lines
From January:
Lockheed Martin beats its F-35 delivery goal for 2021
Lockheed Martin delivered a total of 142 F-35 fighter jets to the United States and its allies, three more than originally planned, the world's largest defense contractor said on Monday.www.reuters.com
LMCO will increase production to 156 aircraft a year starting in 2023. This has nothing to do with the current Ukraine crisis. According to their press releases we should see between 151 - 153 units delivered this year.Ramping up, as in still increasing?

As a Canadian, I agree. We have a government that is shy about military spending, which slows things quite a bit. Personally, I'd like to see us buy new F-15s, but there's a serious issue with that, as Boeing has damaged the Canadian indigenous aircraft industry, so buying from them is a REALLY tough call. That pretty much leaves the F-35 or some lesser European airplane. Tough decision for us up here. Honestly, I don't know what the best path is...
Modern Anti-Slavery Laws are something that have been rolled out across most of the key players in the Western industry.

Yep, normal planning. In fact, I have production predictions from years ago showing just that for the F-35.So near planned production levels now.
I didn't think it had anything to do with Ukraine, just that it was following the planned program.
