Re: F-35 Lightning II JSF developments
Does anyone know when 12-5048 and 12-5050 were delivered to Luke AFB?
And is A35-001 also at Luke, or is A35-002 the only RAAF F-35A currently with 61st FS?

Perhaps old news for some of you...

Nice one!The first purchase of these aircraft was made in 2010 and the first planes are expected to land in Israel in 2017.
Like any other plane that enters into service in the IDF, the F-35 will receive a Hebrew name, “Ha-Adir” (The Great).
(EDITOR’S NOTE: It is very disappointing to see the Israel Defense Force, which over the years has acquired a very flattering reputation for operational effectiveness and engineering inventiveness, reduced to spouting meaningless marketing-speak.

Turkey decided to order 4 more F-35As, bringing the total to 6. Eventually Turkey intends to buy 100 F-35.
