message: Are there any fighter/bomber jets in the JDF? It seems odd that a country like Jamaica would not have a form of fighter, bomber, or fighter/bomber aircraft.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.205.70.254 (talk) 09:02, 31 December 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: No, and to my knowledge they never have. They don't operate any jet aircraft of any kind, though there are turbine-powered aircraft (turboprops and helicopters) in service. As to why not, I can guess several related reasons, but I really don't know. - BillCJ (talk) 09:14, 31 December 2007 (UTC)

message: Hello,
After doing some research, I found out that the Bell 505's are also used for utility/SAR, 4 of them are used for training at the CMA (Caribbean Military Academy) in Jamaica, while the other 2 are used by the air force. Can this be changed?  — Preceding unsigned comment added by Dario DeCasseres (talk • contribs) 13:51, 3 January 2022 (UTC)
