Welcome to the Standing Committee on National Defence.
This is our meeting number 37. Welcome, members.
Pursuant to Standing Order 108(2), we are continuing our study of the next generation of fighter aircraft.
We have with us as a witness from the Lockheed Martin Aeronautics Company, Mr. Burbage, executive vice-president and general manager.
We're very pleased to have you with us. I'll give you 10 minutes for your opening remarks, and after that the members of each party will be able to ask you questions.
Thank you, Mr. Burbage.
