Germany has agreed to buy 35 F35 aircraft as part of their governments proposal this year to upgrade its military. It’s not the first country in the EU to do this, as the F35 is being acquire ahead of the EUs Euro Fighter. Its success comes down to the F-35 Joint Strike Fighter’s high rate of interoperability with allies and partners, particularly in NATO, along with its guaranteed upgrade road map, analysts told Defense News. But more than anything, they noted, the jet arrived in Europe with pristine timing, as multiple nations were itching to refresh their fleets by the end of the decade.
The success of the F35 program is a further example of how U.S weapon systems are being recently acquired by NATO ally members. Addressing capability gaps, highlighted during the Ukraine Russian conflict.
Along with these weapon systems comes the need to comply with DoD DFARS requirements for cyber. DFARS 252.204-7012, 7019, 7020 and soon 7021 follow the product lifecycle from the drawing board to scrap yard, including through life support and maintenance. An small and indirect example of the harmonisation of cybersecurity requirements across NATO allies.
