Kasz what if the Joint Strike Fighter program remained in tact but the F35 not remaining the primary fighter. All the JSF countries share technology and information with one another. But several fighters are designed for different regions and purposes. Rather then a single F35 a Canadian built Northern defence fighter perfect for use in Europe and parts of Asia. An assault first strike fighter built for a wide variety of regions much like the F35. A defensive fighter built for more warm temperatures. Different fighters built for different regions and purposes rather then a single multipurpose fighter that can't out perform Chinese or Russian fighters?

The JSF program countries could also use each others weapons systems allowing Nato and other JSF nations to use fighters equipped with the best tech available to them and best for their individual needs.

This would cut down severely on R&D and ensure that all of the fighters could coordinate and work together. While ensuring that the allies have a fighter built specifically for any purpose they require. So you would have like four JSF jets that would be built by big players and sold to individual countries. The purchasing countries could then modify the fighters with accessories best suited for their nations particular needs.

I cant see all the allies flying a single fighter that cant take on a J20 or T50 wouldn't be great for long range defensive operations in cold northern regions. The fighter would limit the allies it would help greatly in fighting Arab countries or African countries. But would be poorly suited for Canada much of Europe and Asia.
