Thank you, Mr. Chair.
Good afternoon, gentlemen. Thank you for joining us.
My first question is about the news we heard yesterday on the pre-selection of the F-35. What we understood is that the F-35 has not really been officially selected and that what the government calls “dialogues” must still be held. It is being said that “dialogues” with Lockheed Martin could last up to another seven months.
Mr. Williams, what is your understanding of what those “dialogues” are?
