The decision was expected because MHI is Japan’s only jet fighter manufacturer, and no other company bid for the contract. Other suppliers and partners will most likely be identified by the end of the year. U.S. firms that have expressed interest in joining the project include F-35 stealth fighter maker Lockheed Martin Corp

Really? Award the same company that wasted billions in failed attempts to build mid-sized passenger jet?
