More like if you decide to do a mission that we don't like we won't let you start the aircraft. The F-35s call home all the time to the US.

How true is that for other countries' aircrafts? I'm somewhat skeptical of your claim to be honest, seems like a easy decision to not buy at all- there is no knowing ehat teams would form in the kind of war that would need these aircrafts at full scale.
They don't "call home", they just "call out"- American jets are designed to work alongside allied air defense systems in order to prevent accidents.
