"bird strike" is not an interchangeable term with a bird going through the engine, they use the term for birds hitting anywhere on the plane. Even so, Canada has a disturbing number of these. Like a quarter of their prior planes, Starfighter I think? Which might be more of a slight on Canadian pilots than the number of engines...

Two engines is two turbines, they aren't sharing one. The confusion might be that the intake for a one engine is going to be split into two intakes as you aren't going to put an intake running through the cockpit. For two engines though, they run straight back to independent turbines and engines.

This is just an interjection of fact, you can go back to fighting each other. I take issue mainly with the price tag as I think some modernization of the same platform in use probably would have served us just as well in the end. This is XM17. Spending tons of money to replace the secondary and mostly unused in war side-arm of the military for what is going to be marginal at best gains in performance. When a slight tweak would have been sufficient.

The best tactical gain you can make at this point in warfare is taking pilots out of planes.
