If I understood your question correctly, sir, I am confident that Canadian industry and a number of leading aerospace companies are playing a meaningful role in the development and soon-to-be production of the F-35 next-generation fighter. Our encouragement of the government is to continue to look for opportunities where Canadian industry can participate as part of the supply chain in the production phase of this fleet and to maximize the opportunities available for Canadian industry to contribute at the sustainment phase of this fighter jet.
