I really think that it would be short sighted to ditch the SCAF. SCAF is the long end goal, the only way Europe reaches such ambitious objectives starting from much to nothing.An intermediate fighter is what a Plan B can only be. A commercial minded endeavor/Nationalistic to not buy F-35 and keep the national industry on the game.*You'll never get a 6th gen aircraft, ready to fight its way in 2050 battles with a Plan B only. All resources (intellectual, infrastructure and financial) of Europe will be needed for that. Then, past Plan B... Maybe.*Let's be realistic, the easiest way is still to buy F-35s.
