Australia's outgoing air force chief remains confident about the next-generation fighter despite continuing teething problems.
Australia is preparing for the delivery of its first two F-35 Lightning Joint Strike Fighters in 2018, scaling up to 72 by 2023.
Air Vice Marshal Chris Deeble, who leaves his role in two days, is optimistic the delivery deadlines will be met and any kinks sorted out.
