What few? You said Israel--nonstarter since they could not even pony
up
the
fee for joining the F-35 program,


Stop spreading lies.
Israel paid the fee, joined the program and Israeli companies already
won contracts. For example, Elbit will make the JSF's helmets.

Nice try. Israel wanted in as a level one thru three participant--it did not
make it. So it settled for the bottom tier (Security Cooperation
Participant). Bottom of the heap; not a "development partner" (of which
group Australia was the last nation allowed to join). And you really need to
be more timely with your curveball attampts.

You said: "could not even pony up the fee for joining the F-35
program", but it did.

I never talked about the level of participation. According to the
newspapers in Israel (I'm not, and I probably can't find reference to
the Hebrew articles) - from the start it was important to the
government to ensure the participation of Israeli companies at the
lowest possible fee, and so they did after a negotiation period.

Sorry for "my timing". I don't have the time to regulary follow this
ng.
