All of those links appear to be discussing the F-47 and this thread is discussing the F-35.

To be fair, the exact sentence is "we like to tone them down about 10%", which suggests a more common practice rather than only a plan specifically for the F-47.

Of course it's also a quote from Trump, so who knows how much of it is from his random sentence generator. Although I'd guess he's quoting another official or someone from the defence industry.

10% of what? Are they 10% smaller?
