Hornet savings in the wings
Turns out that Australia could have made a wise decision to buy F/A-18F Super Hornets as a fighter stop-gap that could save taxpayers millions of dollars.

According to well-placed sources, the Rudd Government is studying options to delay the purchase of the F-35.

The move will save Australia from buying the jet at early inflated prices. Figures show that a purchase delay of one year would save about $400 million.
