The RCAF's Next Generation Fighter (CF-188 Replacement)

From the short read of things that I had, I wonder if the old barrel of hydraulic fluid was supposed to have been disposed of, but wasn't because it was full of old oil. Then they somehow re-used the old oil by accident and put it in a plane again after it being outside over the winter?

I would hope that's not it, but...how else do you get hydraulic oil that's 30% water with considerable particulate in it?

Probably asking if they’ll still deliver them to Canada without security clearances completed on personnel and all the infrastructure built. “Pretty please we promise to have all our personnel cleared, security forces in place and secure hangars built*.”

At this rate we’ll be sending CAF pilots to fly CF-335s out of US airbases. Indefinitely.
