The Royal Australian Air Force has now received all of its 72 F-35A aircraft after the last of its stealth fighters arrived at RAAF Base Williamtown.
Following the latest additions, Australia’s fleet is around double that of the UK’s – as of earlier this year, the UK had 34 F-35Bs but that is expected to grow to 37 by the end of the year.
The UK is set to have almost 50 of the fifth-generation fighter jets by the end of 2025 and 74 by 2033.
