In order to have the budget to buy another 100 F-35s, Japan may have to give up on its hopes of producing a
homemade replacement to its F-2 fighter jets. That could tank Lockheed Martin’s proposal to build a hybrid of t
he F-22 and F-35 in Japan, Aboulafia said.

“It doesn’t completely kill it, but it makes it extremely unlikely. I mean, let’s look a the requirement here,” he said.
“You’ve got the present 42 F-35s [on order], then you’ve got the F-15 and F-2 replacement requirement. This
100 F-35s takes [sic] care of that F-2 replacement requirement. There is still a question of the F-15 replacement
requirement, but that keeps getting pushed down the road.”
