I appreciate that. I had the pleasure of meeting with 409 Squadron and 19 Wing last week. It is an amazing capability. I just want to be sure we're looking ahead for how it works in the NATO context.
We do ongoing air policing, taking our turn through doing the air policing for Iceland as part of our NATO commitment. We've done air policing in Romania. We've done air policing in the Baltics as part of Operation Reassurance. The comment is that we need 88 fighter jets to continue to potentially meet our NATO and NORAD commitments.
Where are we at with this acquisition of used RAAF Hornets? Now we're talking about extending our CF-18s to 2032, seven years past their best-before date.
