U.S. manufacturer of Ukraine ’s Lockheed - Martin F-35 fighter jets hit the “kill switch”recently, hobbling their ability to use the jets against ongoing Russian aggression.

Portugal recently chose not to buy the jets, despite the recommendation from its air force to do so.

This country has committed to spending $19 billion on 88 F.35 jets.

Defence Minister Bill Blair says the government is reconsidering the deal.
