I appreciate that as an engineer and a pilot you do appreciate it. I am having, however, some difficulties reconciling the minister's statements in the House, which I took to mean—and I thought pretty well everyone else took to mean—that when all options are on the table, all options are on the table, and that meant that even options that have less stealth capability than the F-35 would be on the table.
Can you confirm with me that at this point you've never been asked—in your capacity as CDS, but also in your capacity as a person intimately involved with the F-35 statement of requirements in the first instance—to change that statement of requirements?
