Turkey has the tech to upgrade F-35 jets

Israel has concerns that Turkey could hack the F-35 fighter planes to remove the “qualitative edge” that the USA says is preserved for Israel.

This was the whole reason that other countries backed out of the deal. I guess they figured, what’s the point of buying these planes is they’re programmed to be slower and weaker on the battlefield than Israel’s planes?
