JSF engine fight spills over into Israeli order

The Pratt and Whitney vs. General Electric/Rolls Royce cage fight for the F-35 JSF's engine has spilled over into Israel, with Pratt claiming victory in the race to power Israel's first batch of JSFs while GE/RR says the game's anything but over. The controversy leaves in doubt the first potential engine selection by a non-US F-35customer for production phase aircraft.
