F/A-18's, A's and B's are their closest American counterparts. They are specific models made specifically for Canadian military needs. Basically they took a naval hornet, and mixed it with the land based hornet, and called it a CF-188. The Canadian Gov't recently announced a contract to purchase a number of F-35's, no doubt customized for Canadian military needs (the arctic is similar to the ocean so we like naval features, ie range).
