The UK Government is to spend at least €2.5 billion on procuring F-35Bs for its armed forces.
The aircraft, which are due to enter service in 2018, will be capable of vertical landing and will eventually be able to fly on and off the new UK aircraft carrier, HMS Queen Elizabeth.
The aircraft maker is Lockheed Martin.
