CANADA-POLITICS-MILITARY-DEFRNCE-FILES
(FILES)This May 22,1999 US Air Force image released shows a Canadian Air Force CF-18 Hornet carrying a full load of air-to-air missiles during an Allied Force mission. The Canadian government said June 12, 2014 it will choose one of four fighter jets in competition to replace its aging fleet of CF-18s "in the coming weeks." Critics, however, contend the procurement process -- which was reset in 2012 amid complaints of several manufacturers being shut out of it -- is rigged in favor of the American Lockheed Martin F-35 stealth fighter jet. Over the past 14 months, an independent review panel compiled the costs, capabilities and weaknesses of Boeing's F-18 Super Hornet, the Eurofighter Typhoon, Dassault's Rafale and the F-35.
