With tariffs hammering F-35 sales, I expect the next Eurofighter project will have a lot more resources. I wonder if Canada will get involved.

The US can remotely disable them whenever they damn well please anyway, and can not be trusted not to.

Everyone should be canceling their orders immediately, and disable the remote access capabilities to the ones they have.

Has it actually been confirmed they can do this? I would assume they backdoor them, but usually backdoors are secret.

They require software updates for every mission, that are distributed from the US.

You can probably fly / use it without those, but you lose all the advanced command & control features
