My question is to the Minister for Defence. Minister, Australia's plans to purchase as many as 100 Joint Strike Fighters is obviously crucial to our national security. The confirmation this week that the US is postponing the production of 179 airframes apparently puts Australia's program at risk. Minister, what are the facts of the matter and does the government remain prepared to purchase more Super Hornets?
