Mr. Speaker, Tom Cruise may be flying an F-35 in Top Gun II, but this is not Hollywood and the brave men and women of our Canadian Forces need real planes for mission success.
Last week the U.S. government accountability office testified that the F-35's mission systems are “immature and unproven” and just 4% complete.
After 15 years the F-35 remains more fiction than reality. Now we hear that the Auditor General has lost his loving feeling for the program.
Is the government prepared to accept the AG's critical report, or will it ignore his concerns too?
