QDR to determine number of F-35s needed by USAF
The Quadrennial Defense Review now under way will determine the number of F-35 Joint Strike Fighters required by the U.S. Air Force.
U.S. Air Force Chief of Staff Norton Schwartz told the House Defense Appropriations Subcommittee that his service might ultimately buy more or less of the aircraft.
While the numbers may drop below the current requirement of 1,763 aircraft. Schwartz believed that the number will still be over 1,500.
