It appears that President George Bush and British Prime Minister Tony Blair stuck to their May declaration of technical cooperation for the F-35 Lightning II. US and British defense officials signed a formal pact on technology transfer for the F-35 during the Farnborough Air Show last month. They just didn’t make a public showing of it, according to Reuters news service.
The Government Accountability Office wants the Air Force to explain who will run bases when wings deploy under the service’s new force generation model along with several other unanswered questions, saying the concept is long on vision but short on details.
