YOU DON'T NEED THEM YET! All it is is prudent security, nothing more. When you get your aircraft, you will also get the codes.

Then you'll deeply offend your ally, we might not be so "forth comeing" with tech and info or even support....I know if I was PM I would do that.

I don't see how it offends you but whatever, and as long as Tony is in there we don't have to worry bout him not following orders.

why are you people still bitching about the F-35 codes? Is it even real? Has there being any link to varrify this whole thread?
