We talk about days, weeks or months. Others about years or decade of delays.
One example, the FCAS project of Germany. 9 years just for CDP with an ending of the whole project.

If we had the time and/or the fighter jet, we too would have been willing to wait years. But we have neither. The Kaan project must not face delays like the Altay or Hürkuş programs. We were fortunate with the Altay; the era of conventional tanks came to an end due to the FPV revolution. However, there is still no vehicle capable of replacing the fighter jet or surpassing its effectiveness.

Wait a little longer and manned jets will already become obsolete. Kızılelma is starting its service life soon and within a few years it has the potential to make manned fighters look like liability rather than power.
