Okay so just to clarify what the software lockdown on F-35 means is that other country except the USA aren’t allowed to create update to the software.
Exception for Israel and maybe the UK (don’t quote me) are allowed to modify the software themselves.
It doesn’t mean a instant kill switch. But it does mean that if the USA decides to block someone from update it’s much harder for a country to make their own update.
