ITALY-US-JETS-F35-DEMO
A girl and her father hold a banner reading "more teachers less soldiers" during a demonstration against the purchase of F35 fighter jets by the Italian Senate on July 15, 2013. Italy's ruling coalition averted a split over a motion to scrap its purchase of 90 Lockheed Martin F35 jets by agreeing to seek parliament's approval before going ahead with further spending on the programme. Italy plans to spend 11.8 billion euros ($15.43 billion) on the jets over 45 years, starting in 2015 as the deal includes maintenance contracts for state-controlled defence group Finmeccanica, as Italy's aerospace industry is a development partner in the F35 project and Italy has already invested about 2 billion euros in it.
