Spain Shelves F-35 Purchase, Eyes Eurofighter or FCAS

Spain has decided not to buy F-35 fighter jets from the U.S., postponing the deal.

Instead, Spain will likely choose between the Eurofighter and the FCAS.

The Spanish government had saved money to buy the jets, but they have chosen to spend more on defense in Europe.

The decision was reported by the Spanish newspaper El Pais.

Lockheed Martin, the F-35 manufacturer, stated that the issue should be addressed by the U.S. or Spanish government.
