Confirming the development on 15 Nov, the MoD said: "The 17 new F-35B aircraft will be delivered between 2020 and 2022”

A total of 16 F-35B’s have so far been delivered to the UK, for use with the Royal Air Force's 617 Sqn at Marham in Norfolk and during test activities being performed in the USA. Two other aircraft have yet to be handed over from previous commitments, meaning total orders for the UK now stand at 35 units.

The UK maintains a total commitment to acquiring 138 F-35’s over the life of the programme - that’s big money Blink
