What anti-ship weapon may reach British F-35Bs

What anti-ship missile is the Fleet Air Arm likely to put on its F-35Bs?

The Anglo-French Future Cruise and Anti-Ship Weapon is a plausible candidate, although it may ultimately fly on an F-35B or an uncrewed strike aircraft.

British weapon integration on the F-35B is described as slow, with responsibility for the delays disputed. A preference by Lockheed Martin for its own missiles is suggested as a possible explanation, but it is an interpretation rather than an established motive. The Anglo-French anti-ship weapon programme is considered the likely source of Britain's next-generation missile. Integration on the F-35B is desired, while a future strike drone is another possible carrier. The eventual launch platform remains unresolved.
