Potential operators
Morocco
Royal Moroccan Air Force – It is reported that Morocco is interested in purchasing F-35s to counter Algeria's potential Su-57 acquisition.
India
Indian Air Force – On 14th February 2025, President Donald Trump offered the F-35 Lightning II fighters jets to India, during Prime Minister Narendra Modi's visit to the US.
Former potential operators
Republic of China
Republic of China Air Force – In 2011, it was reported that Taiwan would procure a 5th Generation fighter such as the F-35. A renewed push for purchasing the F-35 happened in early 2017, and again in March 2018. However, by November 2018 it was reported that the Taiwanese military leadership abandoned the F-35 program in favor of the F-16V Viper. Reportedly, the decision was motivated by concerns about industry independence, and Chinese espionage concerns.
Thailand
Royal Thai Air Force – 8 or 12 planned to replace F-16A/B Block 15 ADF in service. On 12 January 2022, Thailand's cabinet approved a budget for the first four F-35A, estimated at 13.8 billion baht in FY2023. On 22 May 2023 The United States Department of Defense has implied it will turn down Thailand's bid to buy F-35 fighter jets, and instead offer F-16V Viper and F-15EX Eagle II fighters, a Royal Thai Air Force source said.
Turkey
Turkish Air Force – 4 F-35A delivered and withheld at Luke Air Force Base. 30 F-35s were ordered, of up to 100 total planned. Future purchases have been banned by the U.S. with contracts canceled by early 2020. On 1 February 2024 the U.S. expressed a willingness to readmit Turkey into the F-35 program in the event of a satisfactory resolution of the S-400 issue.
United Arab Emirates
United Arab Emirates Air Force – Up to 50 had been planned, although the sale was suspended and reviewed by the Biden administration. In December 2021 UAE withdrew from the purchase of F-35s as it did not agree to the additional contract terms added by the US.
