Canada Coordinates to Join British-Japanese Stealth Fighter Program to Reduce Reliance on U.S. F-35s
Trump must be so tired of winning.
The United Kingdom, Japan and Italy are coordinating plans for the inclusion of Canada in the Global Combat Air Programme (GCAP), a next generation fighter program intended to deliver aircraft ready for active service by 2035. Canada has sought to join as an observer, which would allow the Canadian Defence Ministry to access selected classified program information without joining the development phase or sharing a similar burden of development costs. Japan has reportedly played a particularly central role in bringing Canada into the program, with the issue discussed during a March 6 meeting between the Japanese and Canadian defence ministers. Canada’s inclusion has the potential to significantly expand the program’s potential export base and long-term operational reach.
