The F-35: Ensuring National Security for Decades to Come
As the most modern 5th Generation fighter aircraft, the F-35 is designed to counter and deter advancing threats from the air, land and sea. The F-35 can collect, analyze and share data to enhance all assets in the battlespace. The aircraft enables men and women in uniform to execute their mission and return home safely.
Many of the Czech Republic’s NATO allies and traditional international partners, such as the United Kingdom, Italy, the Netherlands, Norway, Denmark and the United States, are operating F-35s in the European theatre today. Germany, Belgium, Finland, Switzerland and Poland have also selected the F-35. The global footprint of the F-35 continues to expand because the aircraft integrates allied nations worldwide and enables mission capability. By the 2035, more than 600 F-35s will be operating in the European region.
