Germany receives first F-35 jet from US as NATO boosts military spending
Germany has received its first F-35A fighter jet from Lockheed Martin as part of a 35-aircraft order placed in 2022, aimed at replacing its ageing Tornado fleet and fulfilling NATO nuclear-sharing duties. The delivery comes amid a broader European military buildup, with NATO members agreeing to devote five percent of GDP to security-related spending by 2035.
