        warns+ (AP) - WASHINGTON, July 15 (Kyodo)—President Barack Obama will veto a pending $680 billion defense spending bill for fiscal 2010 if lawmakers set aside funding for more F-22 fighter jets than the Defense Department has requested, the White House said Wednesday.

The move came after Japan asked the United States recently to provide information on the F-22 once more as it still hopes to acquire the advanced fighter jet despite a U.S. ban on its export.

"The administration strongly objects to the provisions in the bill authorizing $1.75 billion for seven F-22s in FY 2010," the White House said in a statement.

"As the president wrote in his letter to the chairman and ranking member of the Senate Armed Services Committee on July 13, if the final bill presented to him contains this provision, the president will veto it," it said.

Japan has been studying six models as successor aircraft to its aging F-4EJ fighter fleet and is eager to acquire the F-22, among others, as its next-generation mainstay fighter aircraft due to the stealth jet's ability to evade radar detection.

But export of the F-22 is currently prohibited under U.S. law, and Defense Secretary Robert Gates has recently proposed halting production of the fighter jet.

In the United States, some legislators are calling for continued production of the F-22, and Congress has initiated moves that may eventually lead to easing the export ban on the jet.

The six models being studied by Japan for its next-generation mainstay fighter jet are the F-22, F/A-18 and F-15FX of the United States, the F-35, now being developed by the United States, Britain and others, the Eurofighter, made by a consortium of European manufacturers, and the Rafale of France. Only the F-22 and F-35 are stealth fighters.

Japan requested information on the six models from their manufacturers and others in March 2006 and has since obtained some information on all but the F-22. It has delayed selecting a model as the U.S. ban on F-22 exports continues.

As a stopgap measure, Tokyo decided last December to upgrade a total of 48 F-15 strikers in the Air-Self Defense Force by the end of March 2010.對於F-22這個大錢坑, 也是LM公司用來向美國政府騙錢的招牌, 已經讓國防部及白宮超出他們最大忍受極限, 鐵了心要中止生產. 也明白告訴日本及澳洲政府不要打任何主意買F-22出口型, 該下定決心買F-35. 不要讓這個錢坑嚴重損耗同盟整體戰力.
