Germany aims to buy 15 additional F-35 fighter jets, bringing its total fleet to 50. The decision comes amid tensions with France over the joint FCAS aircraft project. The German defense ministry has not yet commented, and military sources suggest that the actual number of jets needed could be higher, given NATO's new targets. The German chancellor has cited differences of opinion with France, which could affect the progress of the FCAS project.
